If we do need a recheck after the io_schedule, we could do as following:

static void __wbt_wait(struct rq_wb *rwb, enum wbt_flags wb_acct,
		       unsigned long rw, spinlock_t *lock)
	__releases(lock)
	__acquires(lock)
{
	struct rq_wait *rqw = get_rq_wait(rwb, wb_acct);
	struct wbt_wait_data data = {
		.wq = {
			.func	= wbt_wake_function,
			.entry	= LIST_HEAD_INIT(data.wq.entry),
		},
		.curr = current,
		.rwb = rwb,
		.rqw = rqw,
		.rw = rw,
	};
	bool has_sleeper;
	bool got = false;

retry:
	has_sleeper = wq_has_sleeper(&rqw->wait);
	if (!has_sleeper && rq_wait_inc_below(rqw, get_limit(rwb, rw)))
		return;

	prepare_to_wait_exclusive(&rqw->wait, &data.wq, TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);

	if (!has_sleeper && rq_wait_inc_below(rqw, get_limit(rwb, rw))) {
		got = true;
		goto out;
	}

	if (lock) {
		spin_unlock_irq(lock);
		io_schedule();
		spin_lock_irq(lock);
	} else
		io_schedule();

out:
	finish_wait(&rqw->wait, &data.wq);

	/*
	 * We raced with wbt_wake_function() getting a token,
	 * which means we now have two. Put ours and wake
	 * anyone else potentially waiting for one.
	 */
	if (data.got && got)
		wbt_rqw_done(rwb, rqw, wb_acct);
	else if (!data.got && !got)
		goto retry;
