When drivers are called with a request in blk-mq, blk-mq flags the state such that the driver knows if this is the last request in this call chain or not. The driver can then use that information to defer kicking off IO until bd->last is true. However, with blk-mq and scheduling, we need to allocate a driver tag for a request before it can be issued. If we fail to allocate such a tag, we could end up in the situation where the last request issued did not have bd->last == true set. This can then cause a driver hang. This fixes a hang with virtio-blk, which uses bd->last as a hint on whether to kick the queue or not.
