Commit d92c370a16cb ("block: really clone the block cgroup in
bio_clone_blkg_association") changed bio_clone_blkg_association() to
just clone bio->bi_blkg reference from source to destination bio. This
is however wrong if the source and destination bios are against
different block devices because struct blkcg_gq is different for each
bdev-blkcg pair. This will result in IOs being accounted (and throttled
as a result) multiple times against the same device (src bdev) while
throttling of the other device (dst bdev) is ignored. In case of BFQ the
inconsistency can even result in crashes in bfq_bic_update_cgroup().
Fix the problem by looking up correct blkcg_gq for the cloned bio.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
