Requests that were stored in the cache deliberately didn't hold an enter
reference to the queue, instead we grabbed one every time we pulled a
request out of there. That made for awkward logic on freeing the remainder
of the cached list, if needed, where we had to artificially raise the
queue usage count before each free.
Grab references up front for cached plug requests. That's safer, and also
more efficient.
Fixes: 47c122e35d ("block: pre-allocate requests if plug is started and is a batch")

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.
