Bart Van Assche a6378366f6 block: Fix a blk_exit_rl() regression
commit dc9edc44de upstream.

Avoid that the following complaint is reported:

 BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/workqueue.c:2790
 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 41, name: rcuop/3
 1 lock held by rcuop/3/41:
  #0:  (rcu_callback){......}, at: [<ffffffff8111f9a2>] rcu_nocb_kthread+0x282/0x500

  blkcg_exit_queue+0x35/0x40
  blk_release_queue+0x42/0x130
  kobject_put+0xa9/0x190

This happens since we invoke callbacks that need to block from the
queue release handler. Fix this by pushing the final release to
a workqueue.
