Can you please collect the ifdefs into a single place? If guard can be used
for that, that's great. If not, just spin_lock/unlock wrappers are fine too,
but please collect them into a single place and add a comment explaining why
this is necessary and why u64_sync isn't being used.
Also, for blkg_clear_stat(), we're running a slight chance of clearing of
iostat_cpu racing against state updates from the hot path. Given the
circumstances - stat reset is an cgroup1-only feature which isn't used
widely and a problematic interface to begin with, I believe this is a valid
choice but it needs to be noted.
Thanks.
