      cfq-iosched: Reduce linked group count upon group destruction · a5395b83
      Vivek Goyal authored
      FQ keeps track of number of groups which are linked on blkcg->blkg_list.
      This is useful to avoid races between queue exit and cgroup exit code
      paths. So if at the request queue exit time linked group count is not
      zero, that means there are some group out there which is yet to be
      deleted under rcu read period and queue exit code should wait for
      on rcu period.
      
      In my previous patch I forgot to decrease the number of group count.
      So in current form, we nr_blkcg_linked_grps is always non-zero and
      we will always wait one rcu period (if BLK_CGROUP=y). The side effect
      of this is that it can increase boot time. I am surprised, nobody
      complained so far.
