The code is not the same.  block/for-linus has several fixes which
haven't been pushed to mainline yet including the following commit.

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] block: blkcg_policy_cfq shouldn't be used if
 !CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED

cfq may be built w/ or w/o blkcg support depending on
CONFIG_CFQ_CGROUP_IOSCHED.  If blkcg support is disabled, most of
related code is ifdef'd out but some part is left dangling -
blkcg_policy_cfq is left zero-filled and blkcg_policy_[un]register()
calls are made on it.

Feeding zero filled policy to blkcg_policy_register() is incorrect and
triggers the following WARN_ON() if CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP &&
!CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED.

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring all blkcg support code is
inside CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED.

* blkcg_policy_cfq declaration and blkg_to_cfqg() definition are moved
  inside the first CONFIG_CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED block.  __maybe_unused is
  dropped from blkcg_policy_cfq decl.

* blkcg_deactivate_poilcy() invocation is moved inside ifdef.  This
  also makes the activation logic match cfq_init_queue().

* All blkcg_policy_[un]register() invocations are moved inside ifdef.
