Bart Van Assche 498f6650ae block: Fix a race between the cgroup code and request queue initialization
Initialize the request queue lock earlier such that the following
race can no longer occur:

blk_init_queue_node()             blkcg_print_blkgs()
  blk_alloc_queue_node (1)
    q->queue_lock = &q->__queue_lock (2)
    blkcg_init_queue(q) (3)
                                    spin_lock_irq(blkg->q->queue_lock) (4)
  q->queue_lock = lock (5)
                                    spin_unlock_irq(blkg->q->queue_lock) (6)

(1) allocate an uninitialized queue;
(2) initialize queue_lock to its default internal lock;
(3) initialize blkcg part of request queue, which will create blkg and
    then insert it to blkg_list;
(4) traverse blkg_list and find the created blkg, and then take its
    queue lock, here it is the default *internal lock*;
(5) *race window*, now queue_lock is overridden with *driver specified
    lock*;
(6) now unlock *driver specified lock*, not the locked *internal lock*,
    unlock balance breaks.

The changes in this patch are as follows:
- Move the .queue_lock initialization from blk_init_queue_node() into
  blk_alloc_queue_node().
- Only override the .queue_lock pointer for legacy queues because it
  is not useful for blk-mq queues to override this pointer.
- For all all block drivers that initialize .queue_lock explicitly,
  change the blk_alloc_queue() call in the driver into a
  blk_alloc_queue_node() call and remove the explicit .queue_lock
  initialization. Additionally, initialize the spin lock that will
  be used as queue lock earlier if necessary.
