blk_get_rl is responsible for identifying which request_list a request should be allocated to. Try get logic was added earlier, but semantically the logic was not changed. This patch makes better use of the bio already having a reference to the blkg in the hot path. The cold path uses a better fallback of blkg_lookup_create rather than just blkg_lookup and then falling back to the q->root_rl. If lookup_create fails with anything but -ENODEV, it falls back to q->root_rl. A clarifying comment is added to explain why q->root_rl is used rather than the root blkg's rl.

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.
