Your understanding is right. When we add lots of users for one shared 
tag, it will make wake_batch > hctx_max_dept. So driver tag allocation 
may wait forever on this real active hctx.

__blk_mq_tag_busy() will add Users and __blk_mq_tag_idle() will decrease 
Users. Only changes in Users will affect each user's max depth. So we 
recalculate the matching wake_batch by 
sbitmap_queue_update_wake_batch(). sbitmap_queue_update_wake_batch() 
will calculate wake_batch by incoming depth. The value of 
sbq->wake_batch will only be changed when the calculated wake_batch changes.

static void sbitmap_queue_update_wake_batch(struct sbitmap_queue *sbq,
                                             unsigned int depth)
{
         unsigned int wake_batch = sbq_calc_wake_batch(sbq, depth);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
         int i;
         if (sbq->wake_batch != wake_batch) {
             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                 WRITE_ONCE(sbq->wake_batch, wake_batch);
                 /*
                  * Pairs with the memory barrier in sbitmap_queue_wake_up()
                  * to ensure that the batch size is updated before the wait
                  * counts.
                  */
                 smp_mb();
                 for (i = 0; i < SBQ_WAIT_QUEUES; i++)
                         atomic_set(&sbq->ws[i].wait_cnt, 1);
         }
}
