Yes, we can move ublk_queue_reinit() into ublk_ch_release(), but monitor_work is scheduled
periodically so ublk_abort_queue() is called multiple times. As ublk_queue_reinit() clear
io->flags, ublk_abort_queue() can requeue the same rq twice. Note that monitor_work can be
scheduled after ublk_ch_release().

Ming, your patch requeue rqs with ACTVE unset. these rqs have been issued to the
dying ubq_daemon. What I concern about is inflight rqs with ACTIVE set.

Zhang.
