Bart Van Assche abc25a6930 blk-mq: Fix preempt count imbalance
Avoid that the following kernel bug gets triggered:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at ./include/linux/buffer_head.h:349
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 8019, name: find
CPU: 10 PID: 8019 Comm: find Tainted: G        W I     4.11.0-rc4-dbg+ #2
Call Trace:

 SYSC_newfstatat+0x20/0x40
 SyS_newfstatat+0xe/0x10
 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x18/0xad

This happens since the big if/else in blk_mq_make_request() doesn't
have final else section that also drops the ctx. Add that.

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.
