A regression of cmd dev -d/-D noticed on some vmcores as:

    dev: invalid structure member offset: blk_mq_tag_set_shared_tags
         FILE: dev.c  LINE: 4468  FUNCTION: blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter()

    MAJOR GENDISK            NAME       REQUEST_QUEUE      TOTAL ASYNC  SYNC
    [crash] error trace: 91aa85 => 91a552 => 94d6ba => 94d647

      94d647: OFFSET_verify.part.0+55
      94d6ba: OFFSET_verify+42
      91a552: get_diskio_1+2194
      91aa85: display_all_diskio+1253

The root cause is, though upstream kernel have defined BLK_MQ_F_TAG_HCTX_SHARED
as (1 << 3), the value might be set different, e.g. [1]. So a single
 
We should be able to get the value of  BLK_MQ_F_TAG_HCTX_SHARED via the dump_enumerator_list(), and then test it in the following function:

static bool blk_mq_is_shared_tags(unsigned int flags)
{
        return flags & BLK_MQ_F_TAG_HCTX_SHARED;
}

That can follow the changes once the upstream kernel modifies the value.

blk_mq_is_shared_tags() check is not sufficient. This patch will add shared_tagsblk_mq_is_shared_tags() check is not sufficient. This patch will add shared_tags
 member check within blk_mq_tag_set struct as an enhancment.
 
Anyway, this change looks good, so: Ack
