When the first iocg activate after blk_iocost_init(), now->vnow maybe smaller than ioc->margins.target, cause very large vtarget since it's u64. vtarget = now->vnow - ioc->margins.target; atomic64_add(vtarget - vtime, &iocg->vtime); Then the iocg's vtime will be very large too, larger than now->vnow.
