generic_{start,end}_io_acct and blk_account_io_done,
these two method use the a timeline (part->stamp), but cgroup doesn't have,
so cgroup cann't use these general helper to counting the total io ticks
for read,write and others. Block cgroup use delta = now -
bio->bi_issue[issue_time]
to counting total io ticks.

How about move it into the blk-iotrack code, rq_qos_issue will call the
rq_qos_ops.issue,  then if user doesn't enable blk-iotrack, these code
will not be executed.

Thanks
