Should this really be all part of blk-cgroup.c and not blk-throttle.c
so that it can be used by CFQ code also down the line? Anyway all this
is not throttle specific as such but blkio controller specific.
Though function naming convetion is not great in blk-cgroup.c But
functions either have blkio_ prefix or blkiocg_ prefix.
Functions which are not directly dealing with cgroups or in general
are called by blk-throttle.c and/or cfq-iosched.c I have marked as
prefixed with "blkio_". Functions which directly deal with cgroup stuff
and register with cgroup subsystem for this controller are generally
having "blkiocg_" prefix.
In this case probably we can use probably blkio_ prefix.
Thanks
Vivek
