Currently io.low uses a bi_cg_private to stash its private data for the blkg, however other blkcg policies may want to use this as well. Since we can get the private data out of the blkg, move this to bi_blkg in the bio and make it generic, then we can use bio_associate_blkg() to attach the blkg to the bio. Theoretically we could simply replace the bi_css with this since we can get to all the same information from the blkg, however you have to lookup the blkg, so for example wbc_init_bio() would have to lookup and possibly allocate the blkg for the css it was trying to attach to the bio. This could be problematic and result in us either not attaching the css at all to the bio, or falling back to the root blkcg if we are unable to allocate the corresponding blkg. So for now do this, and in the future if possible we could just replace the bi_css with bi_blkg and update the helpers to do the correct translation.

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.
