Hi Yu Kuai,

Quick question on the async blkg free path: it now holds the new mutex
across the per-policy teardown, which can sleep (iocost does timer shutdown
in there, for instance).  Since first-IO blkg creation also takes this mutex
now -- it used to be the queue spinlock -- could a first IO for a cgroup end
up waiting on an unrelated cgroup's blkg being torn down on the workqueue?
Not sure it matters in practice; just wondering whether that's a concern at
all, or if I'm overreading how long the mutex is held.

Thanks,
