Maybe I misread the code but if explicit per-device config exists,
cgroup-wide writes are ignored, no?  The original code searches for
matching pn and if it exists, continues without updating.

We don't.  blk->conf.weight is set only on explicit per-device
configuration.  It's gonna be removed eventually after config
definition and handling are moved into policies.

Thanks.
