Hi Vivek,
        When cleaning up the elv_fq_data and ioqs for the iogs
associated with a device on elv_exit(), I don't see any iogs except
the root group being freed. In io_disconnect_groups() you remove the
ioqs from each of the iog and move them to the root iog and then
delete the root iog. Am I missing something here or are there leftover
iogs at elv_exit?
