Chris, just a shot in the dark but can you try the patch from

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20220803121504.212071-1-yukuai1@huaweicloud.com/

on top of something more recent than 5.12? Ideally 5.19 where it applies
cleanly.

No guarantees, I just remembered this patch and your problem sounds like
a lost wakeup. Maybe BFQ just drives the sbitmap in a way that triggers the
symptom.
