So I agree this is nice to do but it isn't so simple. BFQ relies on the
fact that 'online' is cleared under bfqd->lock so we cannot associate bio
in bfq_bio_bfqg() with a bfqg that has already its bfq_pd_offline()
function run.

Maybe if you set 'online' to false before calling ->pd_offline() things
would work fine for BFQ.
