I can also recreate this issue using mq-deadline. Using <none>, there is no
IO hang issue.
Also if I run script to change scheduler periodically (none, mq-deadline),
sysfs entry hangs.
Here is call trace-

I tried both - 5.12.0-rc1 and 5.11.0-rc2+ and there is a same behavior.
Let me also check megaraid_sas and see if anything generic or this is a
special case of scsi_debug.
