v10: - Update patch 3 to rename the rstat function to cgroup_rstat_css_cpu_flush(). v9: - Remove patch "llist: Allow optional sentinel node terminated lockless list" for now. This will be done as a follow-up patch. - Add a new lqueued field to blkg_iostat_set to store the status of whether lnode is in a lockless list. - Add a new patch 3 to speed up the freeing of blkcg by flushing out the rstat lockless lists at blkcg offline time. v8: - Update the llist patch to make existing llist functions and macros work for both NULL and sentinel terminated lockless list as much as possible and leave only the initialization and removal functions to have a sentinel terminated llist variants. This patch series improves blkcg_rstat_flush() performance by eliminating unnecessary blkg enumeration and flush operations for those blkg's and blkg_iostat_set's that haven't been updated since the last flush.
