I'm pretty sure that both of your solutions are wrong.

Jens and James, it appears the problem is in blk_register_queue().  The 
code does this:

        /*
         * Initialization must be complete by now.  Finish the initial
         * bypass from queue allocation.
         */
        queue_flag_set_unlocked(QUEUE_FLAG_INIT_DONE, q);
        blk_queue_bypass_end(q);

This doesn't work well if the queue is unregistered later and then
registered again -- which is what happens when the sd driver is unbound
from a device and then bound again.  It looks like the code should be:

        if (!queue_flag_test_and_set(QUEUE_FLAG_INIT_DONE, q))
                blk_queue_bypass_end(q);

Do you agree?  If so, I'll send in patch.
