There is no need for dm_io_dec_pending() to copy dm_io fields
anymore now that DM provides its own pending_io counters again.
The race documented in commit d208b89401e0 ("dm: fix mempool NULL
pointer race when completing IO") no longer exists now that block
core's in_flight counters aren't used to signal all dm_io is
complete.
Also, rename {start,end}_io_acct to dm_{start,end}_io_acct.

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.
