[PATCH 2/5] blkcg: don't use percpu for merged stats

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Thu Mar 08 2012 - 13:54:58 EST


With recent plug merge updates, merged stats are no longer called for
plug merges and now only updated while holding queue_lock. As
stats_lock is scheduled to be removed, there's no reason to use percpu
for merged stats. Don't use percpu for merged stats.
