The legacy CRQ holds the host lock the even while completing commands.
This presents a problem when in legacy single queue mode and
nr_hw_queues is greater than one since calling scsi_done() introduces
the potential for deadlock.

If nr_hw_queues is greater than one drop the hostlock in the legacy CRQ
path when completing a command.

Similar comment here as previously. The flags parameter is an output for
spin_lock_irqsave but an input for spin_unlock_irqrestore. You'll need
to rethink the locking here. You could just do a spin_unlock_irq / spin_lock_irq
here and that would probably be OK, but probably isn't the best.

Yeah, this will also get its own lock and flags saved in the per-queue struct in
the next spin.
