If there is inflight I/O in any non-last queue, blkback returns -EBUSY
directly, and never stops thread of remaining queue and processs them. When
removing vbd device with lots of disk I/O load, some queues with inflight
I/O still have blkback thread running even though the corresponding vbd
device or guest is gone.
And this could cause some problems, for example, if the backend device type
is file, some loop devices and blkback thread always lingers there forever
after guest is destroyed, and this causes failure of umounting repositories
unless rebooting the dom0. So stop all threads properly and return -EBUSY
if any queue has inflight I/O.

I guess I'm missing something, but I don't see how this is solving the
problem described in the description.
If the problem is that xen_blkif_disconnect returns without cleaning
all the queues, this patch keeps the current behavior, just that it
will try to remove more queues before returning, as opposed to
returning when finding the first busy queue.

Before checking inflight, following code stops the blkback thread,
if (ring->xenblkd) {
kthread_stop(ring->xenblkd);
wake_up(&ring->shutdown_wq);
}
This patch allows thread of every queue has the chance to get stopped.
Otherwise, only thread of queue before(including) first busy one get
stopped, threads of remaining queue will still run, and these blkthread
and corresponding loop device will linger forever even after guest is
destroyed.
Thanks
