OK, it is because that list becomes empty, but .queue_rq(last_rq_in_list)
returns BLK_STS_*RESOURCE, but scsi can't call ->queuecommand() for this
real last rq. Then blk_mq_try_issue_list_directly() doesn't call
->commit_rqs() too.

Here errors means that request not queued successfully, so this patch
looks fine.

Also I think blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() needs similar handling too,
right?


thanks,
