blk-mq: add ->init_request and ->exit_request methods
The current blk_mq_init_commands/blk_mq_free_commands interface has a two problems: 1) Because only the constructor is passed to blk_mq_init_commands there is no easy way to clean up when a comman initialization failed. The current code simply leaks the allocations done in the constructor. 2) There is no good place to call blk_mq_free_commands: before blk_cleanup_queue there is no guarantee that all outstanding commands have completed, so we can't free them yet. After blk_cleanup_queue the queue has usually been freed. This can be worked around by grabbing an unconditional reference before calling blk_cleanup_queue and dropping it after blk_mq_free_commands is done, although that's not exatly pretty and driver writers are guaranteed to get it wrong sooner or later. Both issues are easily fixed by making the request constructor and destructor normal blk_mq_ops methods. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
