"now" might be a bit too vague. Can you point to the commit which made the
change?

Ah, okay, so the stats are now updated by blk-throtl itself but

updated only when limits are configured which can be confusing. Makes sense
to me. Can you please update the patch description accordingly?

Also, the following change:

@@ -2033,6 +2033,9 @@ void blk_cgroup_bio_start(struct bio *bio)
        struct blkg_iostat_set *bis;
        unsigned long flags;

+       if (!cgroup_subsys_on_dfl(io_cgrp_subsys))
+               return;
+
        /* Root-level stats are sourced from system-wide IO stats */
        if (!cgroup_parent(blkcg->css.cgroup))
                return;

seems incomplete as there's an additional
cgroup_subsys_on_dfl(io_cgrp_subsys) test in the function. We probably wanna
remove that?

Thanks.
