Subject: [PATCH 2/2] blk-throttle: Some cleanups and race fixes in limit update code
o When throttle group limits are updated through cgroups, a thread is woken
up to process these updates. While reviewing that code, oleg noted couple
of race conditions existed in the code and he also suggested that code can
be simplified.
o This patch fixes the races simplifies the code based on Oleg's suggestions.
- Use xchg().
- Introduced a common function throtl_update_blkio_group_common()
which is shared now by all iops/bps update functions.
