Thanks for the note. that definitely helped follow what is being
attempted. I also agree with Hannes that the comment from the rdma patch
should also be present to understand what's going on.

Looking at the patch - this is not done in the same place or manner as
rdma. Freezing and stoppage is prior to cancelling and that doesn't
correspond where this was added (this is after all cancellations). We
also seem to be missing a nvme_sync_io_queues() call in the sequence as
well. So I believe there's more work to be done on this patch. I'll see
what I can do.

We really need to see about a common layer for transports. So much we do
is similar. We were ok at the start, but we've drifted apart over time
and the requirements to the core layer aren't propogating to all transports.
