Ming Lei 698cef1739 block: cover another queue enter recursion via BIO_QUEUE_ENTERED
Except for blk_queue_split(), bio_split() is used for splitting bio too,
then the remained bio is often resubmit to queue via generic_make_request().
So the same queue enter recursion exits in this case too. Unfortunatley
commit cd4a4ae468 doesn't help this case.

This patch covers the above case by setting BIO_QUEUE_ENTERED before calling
q->make_request_fn.

In theory the per-bio flag is used to simulate one stack variable, it is
just fine to clear it after q->make_request_fn is returned. Especially
the same bio can't be submitted from another context.

Fixes: cd4a4ae468 ("block: don't use blocking queue entered for recursive bio submits")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
