[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 1/7] blk-throttle: fix lockdep warning of "cgroup_mutex or RCU read lock required!"

From: Ming Lei <ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 27b13e209ddca5979847a1b57890e0372c1edcee ]

Inside blkg_for_each_descendant_pre(), both
css_for_each_descendant_pre() and blkg_lookup() requires RCU read lock,
and either cgroup_assert_mutex_or_rcu_locked() or rcu_read_lock_held()
is called.

Fix the warning by adding rcu read lock.
