Subject[PATCH 36/36] block: make blk-throttle preserve the issuing task on delayed bios
Date
Make blk-throttle call bio_associate_current() on bios being delayed
such that they get issued to block layer with the original io_context.
This allows stacking blk-throttle and cfq-iosched propio policies.
bios will always be issued with the correct ioc and blkcg whether it
gets delayed by blk-throttle or not.
