Ming Lei 4d8dbb61b1 block: throttle split bio in case of iops limit
[ Upstream commit 9f5ede3c01 ]

Commit 111be88398 ("block-throttle: avoid double charge") marks bio as
BIO_THROTTLED unconditionally if __blk_throtl_bio() is called on this bio,
then this bio won't be called into __blk_throtl_bio() any more. This way
is to avoid double charge in case of bio splitting. It is reasonable for
read/write throughput limit, but not reasonable for IOPS limit because
block layer provides io accounting against split bio.

Chunguang Xu has already observed this issue and fixed it in commit
4f1e9630af ("blk-throtl: optimize IOPS throttle for large IO scenarios").
However, that patch only covers bio splitting in __blk_queue_split(), and
we have other kind of bio splitting, such as bio_split() &
submit_bio_noacct() and other ways.

This patch tries to fix the issue in one generic way by always charging
the bio for iops limit in blk_throtl_bio(). This way is reasonable:
re-submission & fast-cloned bio is charged if it is submitted to same
disk/queue, and BIO_THROTTLED will be cleared if bio->bi_bdev is changed.

This new approach can get much more smooth/stable iops limit compared with
commit 4f1e9630af ("blk-throtl: optimize IOPS throttle for large IO
scenarios") since that commit can't throttle current split bios actually.

Also this way won't cause new double bio iops charge in
blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() in which blk_throtl_bio() won't be called
any more.

Jens Axboe a7b36ee6ba block: move blk-throtl fast path inline
Even if no policies are defined, we spend ~2% of the total IO time
checking. Move the fast path inline.
