Let's submit this patch as is. I'm making some comments inline for
things that Xinhui can address in his race condition patch.

This is the correct way to clean up the list when dropping the dqm-lock
in the middle. Xinhui, you can use the same method in
process_termination_cpsch.

I believe the swapping of the q->mqd with a temporary variable is not
needed. When free_mqd is called, the queue is no longer on the
qpd->queues_list, so destroy_queue cannot race with it. If we ensure
that queues are always removed from the list before calling free_mqd,
and that list-removal happens under the dqm_lock, then there should be
no risk of a race condition that causes a double-free.
