Florian reported a io hung issue when fsync(). It should be
triggered by following race condition.
data + post flush a flush
blk_flush_complete_seq
case REQ_FSEQ_DATA
blk_flush_queue_rq
issued to driver blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list
try to issue a flush req
failed due to NON-NCQ command
.queue_rq return BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE
request completion
req->end_io // doesn't check RESTART
mq_flush_data_end_io
case REQ_FSEQ_POSTFLUSH
blk_kick_flush
do nothing because previous flush
has not been completed
blk_mq_run_hw_queue
insert rq to hctx->dispatch
due to RESTART is still set, do nothing
To fix this, replace the blk_mq_run_hw_queue in mq_flush_data_end_io
with blk_mq_sched_restart to check and clear the RESTART flag.
Fixes: bd166ef1 (blk-mq-sched: add framework for MQ capable IO schedulers)

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.
