Damien Le Moal 734e1a8603 block: Prevent deadlocks when switching elevators
Commit af28141498 ("block: freeze the queue in queue_attr_store")
changed queue_attr_store() to always freeze a sysfs attribute queue
before calling the attribute store() method, to ensure that no IOs are
in-flight when an attribute value is being updated.

However, this change created a potential deadlock situation for the
scheduler queue attribute as changing the queue elevator with
elv_iosched_store() can result in a call to request_module() if the user
requested module is not already registered. If the file of the requested
module is stored on the block device of the frozen queue, a deadlock
will happen as the read operations triggered by request_module() will
wait for the queue freeze to end.

Solve this issue by introducing the load_module method in struct
queue_sysfs_entry, and to calling this method function in
queue_attr_store() before freezing the attribute queue.
The macro definition QUEUE_RW_LOAD_MODULE_ENTRY() is added to define a
queue sysfs attribute that needs loading a module.

The definition of the scheduler atrribute is changed to using
QUEUE_RW_LOAD_MODULE_ENTRY(), with the function
elv_iosched_load_module() defined as the load_module method.
elv_iosched_store() can then be simplified to remove the call to
request_module().
