[PATCH v4 0/2] blk-cgroup: Fix potential UAF & flush rstat at blkgs destruction path

[Waiman Long <longman-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>]

 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().
