block: protect hctx attributes/params using q->elevator_lock
Currently, hctx attributes (nr_tags, nr_reserved_tags, and cpu_list) are protected using `q->sysfs_lock`. However, these attributes can be updated in multiple scenarios: - During the driver's probe method. - When updating nr_hw_queues. - When writing to the sysfs attribute nr_requests, which can modify nr_tags. The nr_requests attribute is already protected using q->elevator_lock, but none of the update paths actually use q->sysfs_lock to protect hctx attributes. So to ensure proper synchronization, replace q->sysfs_lock with q->elevator_lock when reading hctx attributes through sysfs. Additionally, blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues allocates and updates hctx. The allocation of hctx is protected using q->elevator_lock, however, updating hctx params happens without any protection, so safeguard hctx param update path by also using q->elevator_lock.
