Dennis Zhou (Facebook) 07b05bcc32 blkcg: convert blkg_lookup_create to find closest blkg
There are several scenarios where blkg_lookup_create can fail. Examples
include the blkcg dying, request_queue is dying, or simply being OOM. At
the end of the day, most handle this by simply falling back to the
q->root_blkg and calling it a day.

This patch implements the notion of closest blkg. During
blkg_lookup_create, if it fails to create, return the closest blkg
found or the q->root_blkg. blkg_try_get_closest is introduced and used
during association so a bio is always attached to a blkg.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
