[PATCH] blk_queue_start_tag() shared map race fix
If we share the tag map between two or more queues, then we cannot use __set_bit() to set the bit. In fact we need to make sure we atomically acquire this tag, so loop using test_and_set_bit() to protect from that. Noticed by Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
