Ming Lei f983622ae6 scsi: core: Avoid calling synchronize_rcu() for each device in scsi_host_block()
scsi_host_block() calls scsi_internal_device_block() for each scsi_device and
scsi_internal_device_block() calls blk_mq_quiesce_queue() for each LUN.

Since synchronize_rcu() is called from blk_mq_quiesce_queue(), this can cause
substantial slowdowns on systems with many LUNs.

Use scsi_internal_device_block_nowait() to implement scsi_host_block() so it
is sufficient to run synchronize_rcu() once. This is safe since SCSI does not
set the BLK_MQ_F_BLOCKING flag.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
