Jens Axboe bf4907c05e blk-mq: fix schedule-under-preempt for blocking drivers
Commit a4d907b6a33b unified the single and multi queue request handlers,
but in the process, it also screwed up the locking balance and calls
blk_mq_try_issue_directly() with the ctx preempt lock held. This is a
problem for drivers that have set BLK_MQ_F_BLOCKING, since now they
can't reliably sleep.

While in there, protect against similar issues in the future, by adding
a might_sleep() trigger in the BLOCKING path for direct issue or queue
run.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
