blkcg: factor out blkio_group creation
Currently both blk-throttle and cfq-iosched implement their own
blkio_group creation code in throtl_get_tg() and cfq_get_cfqg(). This
patch factors out the common code into blkg_lookup_create(), which
returns ERR_PTR value so that transitional failures due to queue
bypass can be distinguished from other failures.
* New plkio_policy_ops methods blkio_alloc_group_fn() and
blkio_link_group_fn added. Both are transitional and will be
removed once the blkg management code is fully moved into
blk-cgroup.c.
* blkio_alloc_group_fn() allocates policy-specific blkg which is
usually a larger data structure with blkg as the first entry and
intiailizes it. Note that initialization of blkg proper, including
percpu stats, is responsibility of blk-cgroup proper.
Note that default config (weight, bps...) initialization is done
from this method; otherwise, we end up violating locking order
between blkcg and q locks via blkcg_get_CONF() functions.
* blkio_link_group_fn() is called under queue_lock and responsible for
linking the blkg to the queue. blkcg side is handled by blk-cgroup
proper.
* The common blkg creation function is named blkg_lookup_create() and
blkiocg_lookup_group() is renamed to blkg_lookup() for consistency.
Also, throtl / cfq related functions are similarly [re]named for
consistency.
This simplifies blkcg policy implementations and enables further
cleanup.
-v2: Vivek noticed that blkg_lookup_create() incorrectly tested
blk_queue_dead() instead of blk_queue_bypass() leading a user of
the function ending up creating a new blkg on bypassing queue.
This is a bug introduced while relocating bypass patches before
this one. Fixed.
-v3: ERR_PTR patch folded into this one. @for_root added to
blkg_lookup_create() to allow creating root group on a bypassed
queue during elevator switch.
