The changelog is too verbose. How about:

The bug is we're not able to remove the device from blkio cgroup's
per-device control files if it gets unplugged.

To reproduce the bug:

  # mount -t cgroup -o blkio xxx /cgroup
  # cd /cgroup
  # echo "8:0 1000" > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
  # unplug the device
  # cat blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
  8:0	1000
  # echo "8:0 0" > blkio.throttle.read_bps_device
  -bash: echo: write error: No such device

After patching, the device removal will succeed.

unnecessary parentheses.

if (ret && weight != 0)

or

if (ret && !weight)

Normally we align the above lines this way:

if ((weight < BLKIO_WEIGHT_MIN && weight > 0) ||
    weight > BLKIO_WEIGHT_MAX)
	return -EINVAL;
