Supposing the following scenario with a virtio_blk driver.

CPU0                    CPU1                    CPU2

blk_mq_try_issue_directly()
  __blk_mq_issue_directly()
    q->mq_ops->queue_rq()
      virtio_queue_rq()
        blk_mq_stop_hw_queue()
                                                virtblk_done()
                        blk_mq_try_issue_directly()
                          if (blk_mq_hctx_stopped())
  blk_mq_request_bypass_insert()                  blk_mq_run_hw_queue()
  blk_mq_run_hw_queue()     blk_mq_run_hw_queue()
                            blk_mq_insert_request()
                            return

After CPU0 has marked the queue as stopped, CPU1 will see the queue is
stopped. But before CPU1 puts the request on the dispatch list, CPU2
receives the interrupt of completion of request, so it will run the
hardware queue and marks the queue as non-stopped. Meanwhile, CPU1 also
runs the same hardware queue. After both CPU1 and CPU2 complete
blk_mq_run_hw_queue(), CPU1 just puts the request to the same hardware
queue and returns. It misses dispatching a request. Fix it by running
the hardware queue explicitly. And blk_mq_request_issue_directly()
should handle a similar situation. Fix it as well.
