q->mq_usage_counter is a percpu_ref which is killed and drained when
the queue is frozen. On a CPU hotplug event, blk_mq_queue_reinit()
which involves freezing the queue is invoked on all existing queues.
Because percpu_ref killing and draining involve a RCU grace period,
doing the above on one queue after another may take a long time if
there are many queues on the system.
This patch splits out initiation of freezing and waiting for its
completion, and updates blk_mq_queue_reinit_notify() so that the
queues are frozen in parallel instead of one after another. Note that
freezing and unfreezing are moved from blk_mq_queue_reinit() to
blk_mq_queue_reinit_notify().

Christian, can you please verify that this resolves the latency issue
that you're seeing? Jens, can you please route this patch once
Christian confirms it?
Thanks!
