While using iostat for raid, I observed very strange 'await' occasionally, and turns out it's due to that 'ios' and 'sectors' is counted in bdev_start_io_acct(), while 'nsecs' is counted in bdev_end_io_acct(). I'm not sure why they are ccounted like that but I think this behaviour is obviously wrong because user will get wrong disk stats. Fix the problem by counting 'ios' and 'sectors' when io is done, like what rq-based device does.

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.
