[PATCH 13/15] blkcg: change blkg reference counting to use percpu_ref

From: Dennis Zhou
Date: Thu Aug 30 2018 - 21:54:43 EST


From: "Dennis Zhou (Facebook)" <dennisszhou@xxxxxxxxx>

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.
