Looks you don't consider one dying ubq_daemon as one crash candidate.
Most io implementation is done in the ubq pthread, so it should be
covered by the crash recovery.

Frankly speaking, not sure we need to invent new wheel for the
'aborting' mechanism.

In theory, you needn't change the current monitor work and cancel
dev/queue. What you need is how to handle the dying ubq daemon:

1) without user recovery, delete disk if any ubq daemon is died.

2) with user recovery:
- quiesce request queue and wait until all inflight requests are
requeued(become IDLE);
- call io_uring_cmd_done for any active io slot
- send one kobj_uevent(KOBJ_CHANGE) to notify userspace for handling
the potential crash; if it is confirmed as crash by userspace,
userspace will send command to handle it.
(this way will simplify userspace too, since we can add one utility
and provide it via udev script for handling rec

Checking one flag lockless is usually not safe, also not sure why we
need such flag here, and the original check is supposed to work.

driver can't figure out if it is crash, and it can just see if the
ubq deamon is died or not. And crash detection logic should be done
in userspace, IMO.

Please don't add new flag in fast path lockless, and the original check
is supposed to be reused for recovery feature.

Can you consider why you don't consider it as one crash? IMO, most of
userspace block logic is run in ubq_daemon, so it is reasonable to
consider it.

ublk_reinit_dev() is supposed to be run in standalone context, just like
ublk_stop_dev(), we need monitor_work to provide forward progress,
so don't run wait in monitor work.

And please don't change this model for making forward progress.

ublk_reinit_queue() is bad name, it is called during aborting, what
we need is to shutdown them completely. And reinit or reset will
be done when you start to recovery, at that time, you can reinit
or reset the queue really.

ublk_reinit_dev() is supposed to be run in standalone context, just like
ublk_stop_dev(), we need monitor_work to provide forward progress,
so don't run wait in monitor work.

And please don't change this model of making forward progress.

ublk_stop_dev() isn't supposed to be changed so much, and it can be just
for handling non-recovery, but it can be renamed as ublk_delete_disk().

For recovery, you can add one function of ublk_quiesce_disk() for
preparing for recovering.
