Hi, Ming

I understand if static_rq is freed through blk_mq_free_tag_set(),
drivers should not use static_rq anymore.

By the way, I was thinking about another path:

blk_mq_update_nr_requests
 if (!hctx->sched_tags) -> if this is true
  ret = blk_mq_tag_update_depth(hctx, &hctx->tags, nr, false)
   blk_mq_free_rqs -> static_rq is freed here

If this path concurrent with nbd_read_stat(), nbd_read_stat() can
get a freed request by blk_mq_tag_to_rq(), since tags->lock is not
held.

t1: nbd_read_stat	  t2: blk_mq_update_nr_requests
rq = blk_mq_tag_to_rq()
			  blk_mq_free_rqs

By holding tags->lock, we can check that rq state is idle, and it's
ref is 0.
