The current blk_mq_quiesce_queue() and blk_mq_unquiesce_queue() always
stops and starts the queue unconditionally. And there can be concurrent
quiesce/unquiesce coming from different unrelated code paths, so
unquiesce may come unexpectedly and start queue too early.

Prepare for supporting concurrent quiesce/unquiesce from multiple
contexts, so that we can address the above issue.

NVMe has very complicated quiesce/unquiesce use pattern, add one atomic
bit for makeiing sure that blk-mq quiece/unquiesce is always called in
pair.

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.
