…s_lock

For storing a value to a queue attribute, the queue_attr_store function
first freezes the queue (->q_usage_counter(io)) and then acquire
->sysfs_lock. This seems not correct as the usual ordering should be to
acquire ->sysfs_lock before freezing the queue. This incorrect ordering
causes the following lockdep splat which we are able to reproduce always
simply by accessing /sys/kernel/debug file using ls command:

Prevent the above lockdep warning by acquiring ->sysfs_lock before
freezing the queue while storing a queue attribute in queue_attr_store
function. Later, we also found[1] another function __blk_mq_update_nr_
hw_queues where we first freeze queue and then acquire the ->sysfs_lock.
So we've also updated lock ordering in __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues
function and ensured that in all code paths we follow the correct lock
ordering i.e. acquire ->sysfs_lock before freezing the queue.
