In bfq_pd_alloc(), the function bfqg_stats_init() init bfqg. If blkg_rwstat_init() init bytes successful and init ios failed, bfqg_stats_init() return failed, bfqg will be freed. If we traverse the list of percpu_counters, It will have use after free problem. we should use blkg_rwstat_exit() to cleanup bfqg_stats bytes in the above scenario.
