request_queue->nr_requests can be changed by:
a) switch elevator by updating nr_hw_queues
b) switch elevator by elevator sysfs attribute
c) configue queue sysfs attribute nr_requests
Current lock order is:
1) update_nr_hwq_lock, case a,b
2) freeze_queue
3) elevator_lock, case a,b,c
And update nr_requests is seriablized by elevator_lock() already,
however, in the case c, we'll have to allocate new sched_tags if
nr_requests grow, and do this with elevator_lock held and queue
freezed has the risk of deadlock.
Hence use update_nr_hwq_lock instead, make it possible to allocate
memory if tags grow, meanwhile also prevent nr_requests to be changed
concurrently.
