blk-cgroup has been using blkg_rwstat to track basic IO stats.
Unfortunately, reading recursive stats scales badly as itinvolves
walking all descendants. On systems with a huge number of cgroups
(dead or alive), this can lead to substantial CPU cost when reading IO
stats.
This patch reimplements basic IO stats using cgroup rstat which uses
more memory but makes recursive stat reading O(# descendants which
have been active since last reading) instead of O(# descendants).
* blk-cgroup core no longer uses sync/async stats. Introduce new stat
enums - BLKG_IOSTAT_{READ|WRITE|DISCARD}.
* Add blkg_iostat[_set] which encapsulates byte and io stats, last
values for propagation delta calculation and u64_stats_sync for
correctness on 32bit archs.
* Update the new percpu stat counters directly and implement
blkcg_rstat_flush() to implement propagation.
* blkg_print_stat() can now bring the stats up to date by calling
cgroup_rstat_flush() and print them instead of directly summing up
all descendants.
* It now allocates 96 bytes per cpu. It used to be 40 bytes.

blkcg_print_stat() iterates blkgs under RCU and doesn't test whether
the blkg is online. This can call into pd_stat_fn() on a pd which is
still being initialized leading to an oops.
The heaviest operation - recursively summing up rwstat counters - is
already done while holding the queue_lock. Expand queue_lock to cover
the other operations and skip the blkg if it isn't online yet. The
online state is protected by both blkcg and queue locks, so this
guarantees that only online blkgs are processed.

blkcg_activate_policy() has the following bugs.
* cf09a8ee19 ("blkcg: pass @q and @blkcg into
blkcg_pol_alloc_pd_fn()") added @blkcg to ->pd_alloc_fn(); however,
blkcg_activate_policy() ends up using pd's allocated for the root
blkcg for all preallocations, so ->pd_init_fn() for non-root blkcgs
can be passed in pd's which are allocated for the root blkcg.
For blk-iocost, this means that ->pd_init_fn() can write beyond the
end of the allocated object as it determines the length of the flex
array at the end based on the blkcg's nesting level.
* Each pd is initialized as they get allocated. If alloc fails, the
policy will get freed with pd's initialized on it.
* After the above partial failure, the partial pds are not freed.
This patch fixes all the above issues by
* Restructuring blkcg_activate_policy() so that alloc and init passes
are separate. Init takes place only after all allocs succeeded and
on failure all allocated pds are freed.
* Unifying and fixing the cleanup of the remaining pd_prealloc.

This patch adds a %NULL check to blkg_tryget_closest() to prevent the

Currently, blkcg destruction relies on a sequence of events:
1. Destruction starts. blkcg_css_offline() is called and blkgs
release their reference to the blkcg. This immediately destroys
the cgwbs (writeback).
2. With blkgs giving up their reference, the blkcg ref count should
become zero and eventually call blkcg_css_free() which finally
frees the blkcg.
Jiufei Xue reported that there is a race between blkcg_bio_issue_check()
and cgroup_rmdir(). To remedy this, blkg destruction becomes contingent
on the completion of all writeback associated with the blkcg. A count of
the number of cgwbs is maintained and once that goes to zero, blkg
destruction can follow. This should prevent premature blkg destruction
related to writeback.
The new process for blkcg cleanup is as follows:
1. Destruction starts. blkcg_css_offline() is called which offlines
writeback. Blkg destruction is delayed on the cgwb_refcnt count to
avoid punting potentially large amounts of outstanding writeback
to root while maintaining any ongoing policies. Here, the base
cgwb_refcnt is put back.
2. When the cgwb_refcnt becomes zero, blkcg_destroy_blkgs() is called
and handles destruction of blkgs. This is where the css reference
held by each blkg is released.
3. Once the blkcg ref count goes to zero, blkcg_css_free() is called.
This finally frees the blkg.
It seems in the past blk-throttle didn't do the most understandable
things with taking data from a blkg while associating with current. So,
the simplification and unification of what blk-throttle is doing caused
this.

This reverts commit 4c6994806f.
Destroying blkgs is tricky because of the nature of the relationship. A
blkg should go away when either a blkcg or a request_queue goes away.
However, blkg's pin the blkcg to ensure they remain valid. To break this
cycle, when a blkcg is offlined, blkgs put back their css ref. This
eventually lets css_free() get called which frees the blkcg.
The above commit (4c6994806f) breaks this order of events by trying to
destroy blkgs in css_free(). As the blkgs still hold references to the
blkcg, css_free() is never called.
The race between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir() will be
addressed in the following patch by delaying destruction of a blkg until
all writeback associated with the blkcg has been finished.
