/**
- * __blk_release_queue - release a request queue
- * @work: pointer to the release_work member of the request queue to be released
+ * blk_release_queue - releases all allocated resources of the request_queue
+ * @kobj: pointer to a kobject, whose container is a request_queue
+ *
+ * This function releases all allocated resources of the request queue.
+ *
+ * The struct request_queue refcount is incremented with blk_get_queue() and
+ * decremented with blk_put_queue(). Once the refcount reaches 0 this function
+ * is called.
+ *
+ * For drivers that have a request_queue on a gendisk and added with
+ * __device_add_disk() the refcount to request_queue will reach 0 with
+ * the last put_disk() called by the driver. For drivers which don't use
+ * __device_add_disk() this happens with blk_cleanup_queue().
*
- * Description:
- * This function is called when a block device is being unregistered. The
- * process of releasing a request queue starts with blk_cleanup_queue, which
- * set the appropriate flags and then calls blk_put_queue, that decrements
- * the reference counter of the request queue. Once the reference counter
- * of the request queue reaches zero, blk_release_queue is called to release
- * all allocated resources of the request queue.
+ * Drivers exist which depend on the release of the request_queue to be
+ * synchronous, it should not be deferred.
+ *
+ * Context: can sleep
