So isn't the blk_mq_tag_set always a member of the host driver data for
those cases, and, since blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter() is for iter'ing block
driver tags and called from block driver or hctx_busy_show(), it would
exist for the lifetime of the host device.

You're talking about skd_mq_queue_rq() -> skd_in_flight() ->
blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter(), right?

So I would expect any .queue_rq calls to complete before the associated
request queue and tagset may be unregistered.

Well then it seems sensible to add might_sleep() also.

And we still have the blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter() problem. As Ming
mentioned yesterday, we know contexts where from where it is called
which may not sleep.

Thanks,
John
