[PATCHSET v2 block/for-next] blk-cgroup: use cgroup rstat for IO stats

Hello,

v2: Build fix when !DEBUG.

blk-cgroup IO stats currently use blkg_rwstat which unforutnately
requires walking all descendants recursively on read. On systems with
a large number of cgroups (dead or alive), this can make each stat
read a substantially expensive operation.

This patch updates blk-cgroup to use cgroup rstat which makes stat
reading O(# descendants which have been active since last reading)
instead of O(# descendants).

0001-bfq-iosched-relocate-bfqg_-rwstat-helpers.patch
0002-bfq-iosched-stop-using-blkg-stat_bytes-and-stat_ios.patch
0003-blk-throtl-stop-using-blkg-stat_bytes-and-stat_ios.patch
0004-blk-cgroup-remove-now-unused-blkg_print_stat_-bytes-.patch
0005-blk-cgroup-reimplement-basic-IO-stats-using-cgroup-r.patch
0006-blk-cgroup-separate-out-blkg_rwstat-under-CONFIG_BLK.patch

0001-0003 make bfq-iosched and blk-throtl use their own blkg_rwstat to
track basic IO stats on cgroup1 instead of sharing blk-cgroup core's.
0004 is a follow-up cleanup.

0005 switches blk-cgroup to cgroup rstat.

0006 moves blkg_rwstat to its own files and gate it under a config
option as it's now only used by blk-throtl and bfq-iosched.

The patchset is on top of

block/for-next 40afbe18b03a ("Merge branch 'for-5.5/drivers-post' into for-next")
+ block/for-linus b0814361a25c ("blkcg: make blkcg_print_stat() print stats only for online blkgs")

and also available in the following git branch.
