block: Fix a blk_exit_rl() regression
Avoid that the following complaint is reported: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/workqueue.c:2790 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 41, name: rcuop/3 1 lock held by rcuop/3/41: #0: (rcu_callback){......}, at: [<ffffffff8111f9a2>] rcu_nocb_kthread+0x282/0x500 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x86/0xcf ___might_sleep+0x174/0x260 __might_sleep+0x4a/0x80 flush_work+0x7e/0x2e0 __cancel_work_timer+0x143/0x1c0 cancel_work_sync+0x10/0x20 blk_throtl_exit+0x25/0x60 blkcg_exit_queue+0x35/0x40 blk_release_queue+0x42/0x130 kobject_put+0xa9/0x190 This happens since we invoke callbacks that need to block from the queue release handler. Fix this by pushing the final release to a workqueue.

- * blk_release_queue: - release a &struct request_queue when it is no longer needed

* Description:
- * blk_release_queue is the pair to blk_init_queue() or
- * blk_queue_make_request(). It should be called when a request queue is
- * being released; typically when a block device is being de-registered.
- * Currently, its primary task it to free all the &struct request
- * structures that were allocated to the queue and the queue itself.

- * Note:

* The low level driver must have finished any outstanding requests first
