From: Yu Kuai <[email protected]>

bfq_bio_bfqg() is called while bfqd->lock is held from the merge and
request insertion paths. It walks bio->bi_blkg and its parent chain to
find the closest online BFQ group, and also updates bio->bi_blkg when
the original association points at an offline or otherwise unusable
blkg.

After missing blkg creation is protected by q->blkcg_mutex,
bio_associate_blkg_from_css() can sleep on lookup misses. BFQ must not
call it while holding bfqd->lock. The blkg BFQ wants is already known
from the existing bio->bi_blkg ancestry walk, so update bio->bi_blkg by
swapping references to that existing blkg directly instead of looking it
up again by css.
