commit 8d394bc4adf588ca4a0650745167cb83f86c18c9 upstream. DM handles a flush with data by first issuing an empty flush and then once it completes the REQ_PREFLUSH flag is removed and the payload is issued. The problem fixed by this commit is that both the empty flush bio and the data payload will account the full extent of the data payload. Fix this by factoring out dm_io_acct() and having it wrap all IO accounting to set the size of bio with REQ_PREFLUSH to 0, account the IO, and then restore the original size.

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.
