md: avoid spinlock problem in blk_throtl_exit
blk_throtl_exit assumes that ->queue_lock still exists,
so make sure that it does.
To do this, we stop redirecting ->queue_lock to conf->device_lock
and leave it pointing where it is initialised - __queue_lock.
As the blk_plug functions check the ->queue_lock is held, we now
take that spin_lock explicitly around the plug functions. We don't
need the locking, just the warning removal.
This is needed for any kernel with the blk_throtl code, which is
which is 2.6.37 and later.
