blk-mq: add callback of .cleanup_rq

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848046
[ Upstream commit 226b4fc75c78f9c497c5182d939101b260cfb9f3 ]

SCSI maintains its own driver private data hooked off of each SCSI
request, and the pridate data won't be freed after scsi_queue_rq()
returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE or BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE. An upper layer driver
(e.g. dm-rq) may need to retry these SCSI requests, before SCSI has
fully dispatched them, due to a lower level SCSI driver's resource
limitation identified in scsi_queue_rq(). Currently SCSI's per-request
private data is leaked when the upper layer driver (dm-rq) frees and
then retries these requests in response to BLK_STS_RESOURCE or
BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE returns from scsi_queue_rq().

This usecase is so specialized that it doesn't warrant training an
existing blk-mq interface (e.g. blk_mq_free_request) to allow SCSI to
account for freeing its driver private data -- doing so would add an
extra branch for handling a special case that all other consumers of
SCSI (and blk-mq) won't ever need to worry about.

So the most pragmatic way forward is to delegate freeing SCSI driver
private data to the upper layer driver (dm-rq).  Do so by adding
new .cleanup_rq callback and calling a new blk_mq_cleanup_rq() method
from dm-rq.  A following commit will implement the .cleanup_rq() hook
in scsi_mq_ops.
