RCU lock is required only in blk_account_io_start() to lookup partition. After that request holds reference to related hd_struct. Replace get_cpu() with preempt_disable() - returned cpu index is unused. Non-SMP case also needs preempt_disable, otherwise statistics update could be non-atomic. Previously that was provided by rcu_read_lock().
