PATCH 1/1 bcache: fix unmatched generic_end_io_acct() & generic_start_io_acct()

The function cached_dev_make_request() and flash_dev_make_request() call generic_start_io_acct() with (struct bcache_device)->disk when they start a closure. Then the function bio_complete() calls generic_end_io_acct() with (struct search)->orig_bio->bi_disk when the closure has done. Since the bi_disk is not the bcache device, the generic_end_io_acct() is called with a wrong device queue.

It causes the "inflight" (in struct hd_struct) counter keep increasing without decreasing.

This patch fix the problem by calling generic_end_io_acct() with (struct bcache_device)->disk.

Hi Zhaoxuan,

Nice catch, it makes sense. Thanks.

One more question, do you experience any problem when inflight counter increases only ? I just wondering.

Hi Coly,

Thanks for your review.

There is a problem in iostat -x. iostat shows the bcache device keep 100.00% busy (100.00 in the "%util" column), even if the bcache is idle.

Hi Zhaoxuan,

Cool, this is an already reported issue but I still have no idea how to fix it yet... Thank you for the fix and the above detailed information!

Verified, looks good to me, added to my for-next staging branch.
