It would be nice if these were named blk_cgroup_*. This is arguably
more correct as the id comes from the blkio subsystem, and isn't
specific to blk-throttle. This will be more important very shortly,
as CFQ will be using this same cgroup id for async IO tracking soon.
is_kernel_io() is a good idea, it avoids a bug that we've run into
with CFQ async IO tracking. Why isn't PF_KTHREAD sufficient to cover
all kernel threads, including kswapd and those marked PF_MEMALLOC?
Thanks,
Chad
