blk-mq: introduce blk_mq_complete_request_sync()



In NVMe's error handler, follows the typical steps of tearing down
hardware for recovering controller:

1) stop blk_mq hw queues
2) stop the real hw queues
3) cancel in-flight requests via
	blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter(tags, cancel_request, ...)
cancel_request():
	mark the request as abort
	blk_mq_complete_request(req);
4) destroy real hw queues

However, there may be race between #3 and #4, because blk_mq_complete_request()
may run q->mq_ops->complete(rq) remotelly and asynchronously, and
->complete(rq) may be run after #4.

This patch introduces blk_mq_complete_request_sync() for fixing the
above race.
