v4: - Update comment and commit logs for both patches. v3: - Drop v2 patch 2 as it may not be needed. - Replace css_tryget() with percpu_ref_is_zero() in patch 1 as suggested by Tejun. - Expand comment on patch 2 to elaborate the reason for this patch. v2: - Remove unnecessary rcu_read_{lock|unlock} from cgroup_rstat_css_cpu_flush() in patch 3. It was found that blkcg_destroy_blkgs() may be called with all blkcg references gone. This may potentially cause user-after-free and so should be fixed. The second patch flushes rstat when calling blkcg_destroy_blkgs().
