blk_mq_make_request is not called from the blk insert/execute paths. blk_mq_make_request takes a bio and tries to merge it with a request and adds it to the queue. It is only called when the make_request_fn is called like when generic_make_request is called.
blk_mq_insert_request adds a already formed request to the queue. It is already formed so that is why that path does not bounce bios. The bios/pages should already be added within the drivers restrictions. So for the read_cap path, the call to blk_rq_map_kern in scsi_execute does the blk_queue_bounce call.
Just saw this while trying out iscsi with the scsi-mq stuff :)
