block: properly protect the 'queue' kobj in blk_unregister_queue
The original commit e9a823fb34a8b (block: fix warning when I/O elevator is changed as request_queue is being removed) is pretty conflated. "conflated" because the resource being protected by q->sysfs_lock isn't the queue_flags (it is the 'queue' kobj). q->sysfs_lock serializes __elevator_change() (via elv_iosched_store) from racing with blk_unregister_queue(): 1) By holding q->sysfs_lock first, __elevator_change() can complete before a racing blk_unregister_queue(). 2) Conversely, __elevator_change() is testing for QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED in case elv_iosched_store() loses the race with blk_unregister_queue(), it needs a way to know the 'queue' kobj isn't there. Expand the scope of blk_unregister_queue()'s q->sysfs_lock use so it is held until after the 'queue' kobj is removed. To do so blk_mq_unregister_dev() must not also take q->sysfs_lock. So rename __blk_mq_unregister_dev() to blk_mq_unregister_dev(). Also, blk_unregister_queue() should use q->queue_lock to protect against any concurrent writes to q->queue_flags -- even though chances are the queue is being cleaned up so no concurrent writes are likely.
