b5f2954d30 blkcg: revert blkcg cleanups series
This reverts a series committed earlier due to null pointer exception
bug report in [1]. It seems there are edge case interactions that I did
not consider and will need some time to understand what causes the
adverse interactions.

The original series can be found in [2] with a follow up series in [3].

b2c3fa5467 blkcg: fix edge case for blk_get_rl() under memory pressure
It is possible for blkg creation to fail when in blk_get_rl(). In this
situation, the fallback logic returns the nearest created blkg. There is
however special handling for the request_list for the root blkcg. This
fixes the missing edge case from the earlier series changing
blk_get_rl().

101246ec02 blkcg: rename blkg_try_get to blkg_tryget
blkg reference counting now uses percpu_ref rather than atomic_t. Let's
make this consistent with css_tryget. This renames blkg_try_get to
blkg_tryget and now returns a bool rather than the blkg or NULL.

b3b9f24f5f blkcg: change blkg reference counting to use percpu_ref
Now that every bio is associated with a blkg, this puts the use of
blkg_get, blkg_try_get, and blkg_put on the hot path. This switches over
the refcnt in blkg to use percpu_ref.

e2b0989954 blkcg: cleanup and make blk_get_rl use blkg_lookup_create
blk_get_rl is responsible for identifying which request_list a request
should be allocated to. Try get logic was added earlier, but
semantically the logic was not changed.

This patch makes better use of the bio already having a reference to the
blkg in the hot path. The cold path uses a better fallback of
blkg_lookup_create rather than just blkg_lookup and then falling back to
the q->root_rl. If lookup_create fails with anything but -ENODEV, it
falls back to q->root_rl.

A clarifying comment is added to explain why q->root_rl is used rather
than the root blkg's rl.

f0fcb3ec89 blkcg: remove additional reference to the css
The previous patch in this series removed carrying around a pointer to
the css in blkg. However, the blkg association logic still relied on
taking a reference on the css to ensure we wouldn't fail in getting a
reference for the blkg.

Here the implicit dependency on the css is removed. The association
continues to rely on the tryget logic walking up the blkg tree. This
streamlines the three ways that association can happen: normal, swap,
and writeback.

c839e7a03f blkcg: remove bio->bi_css and instead use bio->bi_blkg
Prior patches ensured that all bios are now associated with some blkg.
This now makes bio->bi_css unnecessary as blkg maintains a reference to
the blkcg already.

This patch removes the field bi_css and transfers corresponding uses to
access via bi_blkg.

a7b39b4e96 blkcg: always associate a bio with a blkg
Previously, blkg's were only assigned as needed by blk-iolatency and
blk-throttle. bio->css was also always being associated while blkg was
being looked up and then thrown away in blkcg_bio_issue_check.

This patch begins the cleanup of bio->css and bio->bi_blkg by always
associating a blkg in blkcg_bio_issue_check. This tries to create the
blkg, but if it is not possible, falls back to using the root_blkg of
the request_queue. Therefore, a bio will always be associated with a
blkg. The duplicate association logic is removed from blk-throttle and
blk-iolatency.

07b05bcc32 blkcg: convert blkg_lookup_create to find closest blkg
There are several scenarios where blkg_lookup_create can fail. Examples
include the blkcg dying, request_queue is dying, or simply being OOM. At
the end of the day, most handle this by simply falling back to the
q->root_blkg and calling it a day.

This patch implements the notion of closest blkg. During
blkg_lookup_create, if it fails to create, return the closest blkg
found or the q->root_blkg. blkg_try_get_closest is introduced and used
during association so a bio is always attached to a blkg.

49f4c2dc2b blkcg: update blkg_lookup_create to do locking
To know when to create a blkg, the general pattern is to do a
blkg_lookup and if that fails, lock and then do a lookup again and if
that fails finally create. It doesn't make much sense for everyone who
wants to do creation to write this themselves.

This changes blkg_lookup_create to do locking and implement this
pattern. The old blkg_lookup_create is renamed to __blkg_lookup_create.
If a call site wants to do its own error handling or already owns the
queue lock, they can use __blkg_lookup_create. This will be used in
upcoming patches.

27e6fa996c blkcg: fix ref count issue with bio_blkcg using task_css
The accessor function bio_blkcg either returns the blkcg associated with
the bio or finds one in the current context. This can cause an issue
when trying to associate a bio with a blkcg. Particularly, it's the
third case that is problematic:

	return css_to_blkcg(task_css(current, io_cgrp_id));

As the above may race against task migration and the cgroup exiting, it
is not always ok to take a reference on the blkcg returned from
bio_blkcg.

This patch adds association ahead of calling bio_blkcg rather than
after. This makes association a required and explicit step along the
code paths for calling bio_blkcg. blk_get_rl is modified as well to get
a reference to the blkcg it may use and blk_put_rl will always put the
reference back. Association is also moved above the bio_blkcg call to
ensure it will not return NULL in blk-iolatency.

BFQ and CFQ utilize this flaw, but due to the complexity, I do not want
to address this in this series. I've created a private version of the
function with notes not to use it describing the flaw. Hopefully soon,
that code can be cleaned up.

59b57717ff blkcg: delay blkg destruction until after writeback has finished
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.

6b06546206 Revert "blk-throttle: fix race between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir()"
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.

b86d865cb1 blkcg: Make blkg_root_lookup() work for queues in bypass mode
For legacy queues the only call of blkg_root_lookup() happens after

d09d8df3a2 blkcg: add generic throttling mechanism
Since IO can be issued from literally anywhere it's almost impossible to
do throttling without having some sort of adverse effect somewhere else
in the system because of locking or other dependencies.  The best way to
solve this is to do the throttling when we know we aren't holding any
other kernel resources.  Do this by tracking throttling in a per-blkg
basis, and if we require throttling flag the task that it needs to check
before it returns to user space and possibly sleep there.

This is to address the case where a process is doing work that is
generating IO that can't be throttled, whether that is directly with a
lot of REQ_META IO, or indirectly by allocating so much memory that it
is swamping the disk with REQ_SWAP.  We can't use task_add_work as we
don't want to induce a memory allocation in the IO path, so simply
saving the request queue in the task and flagging it to do the
notify_resume thing achieves the same result without the overhead of a
memory allocation.

4c6994806f blk-throttle: fix race between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir()
We've triggered a WARNING in blk_throtl_bio() when throttling writeback
io, which complains blkg->refcnt is already 0 when calling blkg_get(),
and then kernel crashes with invalid page request.
After investigating this issue, we've found it is caused by a race
between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir(), which is described
below:

writeback kworker               cgroup_rmdir
                                  cgroup_destroy_locked

                                      css_killed_ref_fn
                                        css_killed_work_fn
                                          offline_css
                                            blkcg_css_offline
  blkcg_bio_issue_check
    rcu_read_lock
    blkg_lookup
                                              spin_trylock(q->queue_lock)
                                              blkg_destroy
                                              spin_unlock(q->queue_lock)
    blk_throtl_bio
    spin_lock_irq(q->queue_lock)
    ...
    spin_unlock_irq(q->queue_lock)
  rcu_read_unlock

Since rcu can only prevent blkg from releasing when it is being used,
the blkg->refcnt can be decreased to 0 during blkg_destroy() and schedule
blkg release.
Then trying to blkg_get() in blk_throtl_bio() will complains the WARNING.
And then the corresponding blkg_put() will schedule blkg release again,
which result in double free.
This race is introduced by commit ae11889636 ("blkcg: consolidate blkg
creation in blkcg_bio_issue_check()"). Before this commit, it will
lookup first and then try to lookup/create again with queue_lock. Since
revive this logic is a bit drastic, so fix it by only offlining pd during
blkcg_css_offline(), and move the rest destruction (especially
blkg_put()) into blkcg_css_free(), which should be the right way as
discussed.

ddc212313f blkcg: simplify statistic accumulation code
Some older compilers (gcc-4.4 through 4.6 in particular) struggle
with the way that blkg_rwstat_read() returns a structure, leading
to excessive stack usage and rather inefficient code:

block/blk-cgroup.c: In function 'blkg_destroy':
block/blk-cgroup.c:354:1: error: the frame size of 1296 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

block/bfq-cgroup.c:299:1: error: the frame size of 1928 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

I also notice that there is no point in using atomic accesses
for the local variables, so storing the temporaries in simple 'u64'
variables not only avoids the stack usage on older compilers but
also improves the object code on modern versions.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

104b4e5139 percpu_counter: Rename __percpu_counter_add to percpu_counter_add_batch
Currently, percpu_counter_add is a wrapper around __percpu_counter_add
which is preempt safe due to explicit calls to preempt_disable.  Given
how __ prefix is used in percpu related interfaces, the naming
unfortunately creates the false sense that __percpu_counter_add is
less safe than percpu_counter_add.  In terms of context-safety,
they're equivalent.  The only difference is that the __ version takes
a batch parameter.

Make this a bit more explicit by just renaming __percpu_counter_add to
percpu_counter_add_batch.

This patch doesn't cause any functional changes.

ef295ecf09 block: better op and flags encoding
Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range
of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and
request fields.  This in addition allows us to place the operation
first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to
stop having to shift around the operation values.

In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer
instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do
that later) and thus clean up a lot of code.

Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags
field in struct request to 32-bits.  Various functions passing this
value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now.

4c737b41de cgroup: make cgroup_path() and friends behave in the style of strlcpy()
cgroup_path() and friends used to format the path from the end and
thus the resulting path usually didn't start at the start of the
passed in buffer.  Also, when the buffer was too small, the partial
result was truncated from the head rather than tail and there was no
way to tell how long the full path would be.  These make the functions
less robust and more awkward to use.

With recent updates to kernfs_path(), cgroup_path() and friends can be
made to behave in strlcpy() style.

* cgroup_path(), cgroup_path_ns[_locked]() and task_cgroup_path() now
  always return the length of the full path.  If buffer is too small,
  it contains nul terminated truncated output.

* All users updated accordingly.

v2: cgroup_path() usage in kernel/sched/debug.c converted.

69d7fde590 blkcg: use CGROUP_WEIGHT_* scale for io.weight on the unified hierarchy
cgroup is trying to make interface consistent across different
controllers.  For weight based resource control, the knob should have
the range [1, 10000] and default to 100.  This patch updates
cfq-iosched so that the weight range conforms.  The internal
calculations have enough range and the widening of the weight range
shouldn't cause any problem.

* blkcg_policy->cpd_bind_fn() is added.  If present, this is invoked
  when blkcg is attached to a hierarchy.

* cfq_cpd_init() is updated to use the new default value on the
  unified hierarchy.

* cfq_cpd_bind() callback is implemented to clear per-blkg configs and
  apply the default config matching the hierarchy type.

* cfqd->root_group->[leaf_]weight initialization in cfq_init_queue()
  is moved into !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED block.  cfq_cpd_bind() is
  now responsible for initializing the initial weights when blkcg is
  enabled.

2ee867dcfa blkcg: implement interface for the unified hierarchy
blkcg interface grew to be the biggest of all controllers and
unfortunately most inconsistent too.  The interface files are
inconsistent with a number of cloes duplicates.  Some files have
recursive variants while others don't.  There's distinction between
normal and leaf weights which isn't intuitive and there are a lot of
stat knobs which don't make much sense outside of debugging and expose
too much implementation details to userland.

In the unified hierarchy, everything is always hierarchical and
internal nodes can't have tasks rendering the two structural issues
twisting the current interface.  The interface has to be updated in a
significant anyway and this is a good chance to revamp it as a whole.
This patch implements blkcg interface for the unified hierarchy.

* (from a previous patch) blkcg is identified by "io" instead of
  "blkio" on the unified hierarchy.  Given that the whole interface is
  updated anyway, the rename shouldn't carry noticeable conversion
  overhead.

* The original interface consisted of 27 files is replaced with the
  following three files.

  blkio.stat	: per-blkcg stats
  blkio.weight	: per-cgroup and per-cgroup-queue weight settings
  blkio.max	: per-cgroup-queue bps and iops max limits

Documentation/cgroups/unified-hierarchy.txt updated accordingly.

36aa9e5f59 blkcg: move body parsing from blkg_conf_prep() to its callers
Currently, blkg_conf_prep() expects input to be of the following form

 MAJ:MIN NUM

and reads the NUM part into blkg_conf_ctx->v.  This is quite
restrictive and gets in the way in implementing blkcg interface for
the unified hierarchy.  This patch updates blkg_conf_prep() so that it
expects

 MAJ:MIN BODY_STR

where BODY_STR is an arbitrary string.  blkg_conf_ctx->v is replaced
with ->body which is a char pointer pointing to the start of BODY_STR.
Parsing of the body is moved to blkg_conf_prep()'s callers.

To allow using, for example, strsep() on blkg_conf_ctx->val, it is a
non-const pointer and to accommodate that const is dropped from @input
too.

This doesn't cause any behavior changes.

c165b3e3c7 blkcg: rename subsystem name from blkio to io
blkio interface has become messy over time and is currently the
largest.  In addition to the inconsistent naming scheme, it has
multiple stat files which report more or less the same thing, a number
of debug stat files which expose internal details which shouldn't have
been part of the public interface in the first place, recursive and
non-recursive stats and leaf and non-leaf knobs.

Both recursive vs. non-recursive and leaf vs. non-leaf distinctions
don't make any sense on the unified hierarchy as only leaf cgroups can
contain processes.  cgroups is going through a major interface
revision with the unified hierarchy involving significant fundamental
usage changes and given that a significant portion of the interface
doesn't make sense anymore, it's a good time to reorganize the
interface.

As the first step, this patch renames the external visible subsystem
name from "blkio" to "io".  This is more concise, matches the other
two major subsystem names, "cpu" and "memory", and better suited as
blkcg will be involved in anything writeback related too whether an
actual block device is involved or not.

As the subsystem legacy_name is set to "blkio", the only userland
visible change outside the unified hierarchy is that blkcg is reported
as "io" instead of "blkio" in the subsystem initialized message during
boot.  On the unified hierarchy, blkcg now appears as "io".

77ea733884 blkcg: move io_service_bytes and io_serviced stats into blkcg_gq
Currently, both cfq-iosched and blk-throttle keep track of
io_service_bytes and io_serviced stats.  While keeping track of them
separately may be useful during development, it doesn't make much
sense otherwise.  Also, blk-throttle was counting bio's as IOs while
cfq-iosched request's, which is more confusing than informative.

This patch adds ->stat_bytes and ->stat_ios to blkg (blkcg_gq),
removes the counterparts from cfq-iosched and blk-throttle and let
them print from the common blkg counters.  The common counters are
incremented during bio issue in blkcg_bio_issue_check().

The outputs are still filtered by whether the policy has
blkg_policy_data on a given blkg, so cfq's output won't show up if it
has never been used for a given blkg.  The only times when the outputs
would differ significantly are when policies are attached on the fly
or elevators are switched back and forth.  Those are quite exceptional
operations and I don't think they warrant keeping separate counters.

v3: Update blkio-controller.txt accordingly.

v2: Account IOs during bio issues instead of request completions so
    that bio-based drivers can be handled the same way.

f12c74cab1 blkcg: make blkg_[rw]stat_recursive_sum() to be able to index into blkcg_gq
Currently, blkg_[rw]stat_recursive_sum() assume that the target
counter is located in pd (blkg_policy_data); however, some counters
are planned to be moved to blkg (blkcg_gq).

This patch updates blkg_[rw]stat_recursive_sum() to take blkg and
blkg_policy pointers instead of pd.  If policy is NULL, it indexes
into blkg.  If non-NULL, into the blkg's pd of the policy.

The existing usages are updated to maintain the current behaviors.

24bdb8ef06 blkcg: make blkcg_[rw]stat per-cpu
blkcg_[rw]stat are used as stat counters for blkcg policies.  It isn't
per-cpu by itself and blk-throttle makes it per-cpu by wrapping around
it.  This patch makes blkcg_[rw]stat per-cpu and drop the ad-hoc
per-cpu wrapping in blk-throttle.

* blkg_[rw]stat->cnt is replaced with cpu_cnt which is struct
  percpu_counter.  This makes syncp unnecessary as remote accesses are
  handled by percpu_counter itself.

* blkg_[rw]stat_init() can now fail due to percpu allocation failure
  and thus are updated to return int.

* percpu_counters need explicit freeing.  blkg_[rw]stat_exit() added.

* As blkg_rwstat->cpu_cnt[] can't be read directly anymore, reading
  and summing results are stored in ->aux_cnt[] instead.

* Custom per-cpu stat implementation in blk-throttle is removed.

This makes all blkcg stat counters per-cpu without complicating policy
implmentations.

e6269c4454 blkcg: add blkg_[rw]stat->aux_cnt and replace cfq_group->dead_stats with it
cgroup stats are local to each cgroup and doesn't propagate to
ancestors by default.  When recursive stats are necessary, the sum is
calculated over all the descendants.  This initially was for backward
compatibility to support both group-local and recursive stats but this
mode of operation makes general sense as stat update is much hotter
thafn reporting those stats.

This however ends up losing recursive stats when a child is removed.
To work around this, cfq-iosched adds its stats to its parent
cfq_group->dead_stats which is summed up together when calculating
recursive stats.

It's planned that the core stats will be moved to blkcg_gq, so we want
to move the mechanism for keeping track of the stats of dead children
from cfq to blkcg core.  This patch adds blkg_[rw]stat->aux_cnt which
are atomic64_t's keeping track of auxiliary counts which are excluded
when reading local counts but included for recursive.

blkg_[rw]stat_merge() which were used by cfq to implement dead_stats
are replaced by blkg_[rw]stat_add_aux(), and cfq now forwards stats of
a dead cgroup to the aux counts of parent->stats instead of separate
->dead_stats.

This will also help making blkg_[rw]stats per-cpu.

ae11889636 blkcg: consolidate blkg creation in blkcg_bio_issue_check()
blkg (blkcg_gq) currently is created by blkcg policies invoking
blkg_lookup_create() which ends up repeating about the same code in
different policies.  Theoretically, this can avoid the overhead of
looking and/or creating blkg's if blkcg is enabled but no policy is in
use; however, the cost of blkg lookup / creation is very low
especially if only the root blkcg is in use which is highly likely if
no blkcg policy is in active use - it boils down to a single very
predictable conditional and surrounding RCU protection.

This patch consolidates blkg creation to a new function
blkcg_bio_issue_check() which is called during bio issue from
generic_make_request_checks().  blkcg_bio_issue_check() is now the
only function which tries to create missing blkg's.  The subsequent
policy and request_list operations just perform blkg_lookup() and if
missing falls back to the root.

* blk_get_rl() no longer tries to create blkg.  It uses blkg_lookup()
  instead of blkg_lookup_create().

* blk_throtl_bio() is now called from blkcg_bio_issue_check() with rcu
  read locked and blkg already looked up.  Both throtl_lookup_tg() and
  throtl_lookup_create_tg() are dropped.

* cfq is similarly updated.  cfq_lookup_create_cfqg() is replaced with
  cfq_lookup_cfqg()which uses blkg_lookup().

This consolidates blkg handling and avoids unnecessary blkg creation
retries under memory pressure.  In addition, this provides a common
bio entry point into blkcg where things like common accounting can be
performed.

v2: Build fixes for !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED and
    !CONFIG_BLK_DEV_THROTTLING.
