block: Avoid scheduling delayed work on a dead queue
Running a queue must continue after it has been marked dying until it has been marked dead. So the function blk_run_queue_async() must not schedule delayed work after blk_cleanup_queue() has marked a queue dead. Hence add a test for that queue state in blk_run_queue_async() and make sure that queue_unplugged() invokes that function with the queue lock held. This avoids that the queue state can change after it has been tested and before mod_delayed_work() is invoked. Drop the queue dying test in queue_unplugged() since it is now superfluous: __blk_run_queue() already tests whether or not the queue is dead.
