Happy new year, Shaohua.

Sorry about the long delay.

It'd be nice to explain why we're adding separate _conf fields.

I think blk_throtl_update_limit_valid() would be more consistent.

It's weird that it's defaulting to MAX.  Shouldn't it default to 0?
When we enable these limits on a cgroup, we want it to not affect the
operation without further configuration.  For max limit, MAX does that
as being over the limit is what changes the behavior.  For low, it's
the other way around.  We enforce latency target if cgroups are under
the low limit, and thus 0 should be the noop default value, which is
the same in memcg.

Maybe
	td->limit_valid[LIMIT_LOW] = low_valid;

Thanks.
