There is a race condition between timeout check and completion for
flush request as follow:

timeout_work    issue flush      issue flush
                blk_insert_flush
                                 blk_insert_flush
blk_mq_timeout_work
                blk_kick_flush

blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter
blk_mq_check_expired(flush_rq)

                __blk_mq_end_request
               flush_end_io
               blk_kick_flush
               blk_rq_init(flush_rq)
               memset(flush_rq, 0)

blk_mq_timed_out
BUG_ON flush_rq->q->mq_ops

For normal request, we need to get a tag and then allocate corresponding request.
Thus, the request cannot be reallocated before the tag have been free.
Commit 1d9bd5161ba ("blk-mq: replace timeout synchronization with a RCU and
generation based scheme") and commit 12f5b93145 ("blk-mq: Remove generation
seqeunce") can guarantee the consistency of timeout handle and completion.

However, 'flush_rq' have been forgotten. 'flush_rq' allocation management
dependents on flush implemention mechanism. Each hctx has only one 'flush_rq'.
When a flush request have completed, the next flush request will hold the 'flush_rq'.
In the end, timeout handle may access the cleared 'flush_rq'.

We fix this problem by checking request refcount 'rq->ref', as normal request.
If the refcount is not zero, flush_end_io() return and wait the last holder
recall it. To record the request status, we add a new entry 'rq_status',
which will be used in flush_end_io().
