that include some minor fixes and addresses all comments.
Changelog: (most based on Vivek Goyal's comments)
o renamed blkiocg_reset_write to blkiocg_reset_stats
o more clarification in the documentation on io_service_time and io_wait_time
o Initialize blkg->stats_lock
o rename io_add_stat to blkio_add_stat and declare it static
o use bool for direction and sync
o derive direction and sync info from existing rq methods
o use 12 for major:minor string length
o define io_service_time better to cover the NCQ case
o add a separate reset_stats interface
o make the indexed stats a 2d array to simplify macro and function pointer code
o blkio.time now exports in jiffies as before
o Added stats description in patch description and
Documentation/cgroup/blkio-controller.txt
o Prefix all stats functions with blkio and make them static as applicable
o replace IO_TYPE_MAX with IO_TYPE_TOTAL
o Moved #define constant to top of blk-cgroup.c
o Pass dev_t around instead of char *
o Add note to documentation file about resetting stats
o use BLK_CGROUP_MODULE in addition to BLK_CGROUP config option in #ifdef
statements
o Avoid struct request specific knowledge in blk-cgroup. blk-cgroup.h now has
rq_direction() and rq_sync() functions which are used by CFQ and when using
io-controller at a higher level, bio_* functions can be added.

We also add start_time_ns and io_start_time_ns fields to struct request
here to record the time when a request is created and when it is
dispatched to device. We use ns uints here as ms and jiffies are
not very useful for non-rotational media.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Modify the Block I/O cgroup subsystem to be able to be built as a module.
As the CFQ disk scheduler optionally depends on blk-cgroup, config options
in block/Kconfig, block/Kconfig.iosched, and block/blk-cgroup.h are
enhanced to support the new module dependency.

o One of the goals of block IO controller is that it should be able to
support mulitple io control policies, some of which be operational at
higher level in storage hierarchy.
o To begin with, we had one io controlling policy implemented by CFQ, and
I hard coded the CFQ functions called by blkio. This created issues when
CFQ is compiled as module.
o This patch implements a basic dynamic io controlling policy registration
functionality in blkio. This is similar to elevator functionality where
ioschedulers register the functions dynamically.
o Now in future, when more IO controlling policies are implemented, these
can dynakically register with block IO controller.

o blkio controller is inside the kernel and cfq makes use of interfaces
exported by blkio. CFQ can be a module too, hence export symbols used
by CFQ.
