Have you tried this patch?

We meet a similar problem in our test, and I'm pretty sure about the
situation at the scene,

Our test environment:nvme with bfq ioscheduler,

How io is stalled:

1. hctx1 dispatch rq from bfq in service queue, bfqq becomes empty,
dispatch somehow fails and rq is inserted to hctx1->dispatch, new run
work is queued.

2. other hctx tries to dispatch rq, however, in service bfqq is
empty, bfq_dispatch_request return NULL, thus
blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queues is called.

3. for the problem described in above patch,run work from "hctx1"
can be stalled.

Above patch should fix this io stall, however, it seems to me bfq do
have some problems that in service bfqq doesn't expire under following
situation:

1. dispatched rqs don't complete
2. no new rq is issued to bfq
