blk_mq_unregister_dev and __blk_mq_register_dev() are only used by blk_register_queue() and blk_unregister_queue(). It is the responsibility of the callers of these function to serialize request queue registration and unregistration. Is it really necessary to hold a mutex around the blk_mq_unregister_dev and __blk_mq_register_dev() calls? Or in other words, can it ever happen that multiple threads invoke one or both functions concurrently?

blk_mq_sysfs_unregister() and blk_mq_sysfs_register() are only used by __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues(). Calls to that function are serialized by the tag_list_lock mutex. Is it really necessary to use any locking inside these functions?

My understanding is that the mutex_lock() / mutex_unlock() calls in this function are necessary today to prevent concurrent changes of the scheduler from this function and from sysfs. If the kobject_uevent(KOBJ_ADD) call is moved, does that mean that all mutex_lock() / mutex_unlock() calls can be left out from this function?

If this function would call kobject_del(&q->kobj) before doing anything else, does that mean that all mutex_lock() / mutex_unlock() calls can be left out from this function?

Thanks,

Bart.
