blk-mq: fix schedule-under-preempt for blocking drivers

Browse source

Commit a4d907b6a3 unified the single and multi queue request handlers,
but in the process, it also screwed up the locking balance and calls
blk_mq_try_issue_directly() with the ctx preempt lock held. This is a
problem for drivers that have set BLK_MQ_F_BLOCKING, since now they
can't reliably sleep.

While in there, protect against similar issues in the future, by adding
a might_sleep() trigger in the BLOCKING path for direct issue or queue
run.
