Re: [PATCH v3] blk-cgroup: Replace u64 sync with spinlock for iostat update

Hello, Boy.

So, looking at the patch, I'm not sure per-blkg lock makes sense.

This is already called with blkg_stat_lock held.

This is per-cpu stat and we should keep using u64_sync for them.

The above two are the only places which can potentially benefit from
per-blkg lock but these aren't hot paths. I'd just use blkg_stat_lock for
the above.

These are per-cpu stat updates which should keep using u64_sync. We don't
want to incur locking overhead for stat updates in the hot issue path.

Thanks.
