dm-multipath is the only user of blk_mq_queue_inflight(). When dm-multipath calls blk_mq_queue_inflight() to check if it has outstanding IO it can get a false negative. The reason for this is blk_mq_rq_inflight() doesn't consider requests that are no longer MQ_RQ_IN_FLIGHT but that are now MQ_RQ_COMPLETE (->complete isn't called or finished yet) as "inflight". This causes request-based dm-multipath's dm_wait_for_completion() to return before all outstanding dm-multipath requests have actually completed. This breaks DM multipath's suspend functionality because blk-mq requests complete after DM's suspend has finished -- which shouldn't happen. Fix this by considering any request not in the MQ_RQ_IDLE state (so either MQ_RQ_COMPLETE or MQ_RQ_IN_FLIGHT) as "inflight" in blk_mq_rq_inflight().

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
