There are 3 ways blkg association can happen: association with the
current css, with the page css (swap), or from the wbc css (writeback).

This patch handles how association is done for the first case where we
are associating bsaed on the current css. If there is already a blkg
associated, the css will be reused and association will be redone as the
request_queue may have changed.

A minor nit below.
+/**
+ * bio_associate_blkg - associate a bio with a blkg from q
+ * @bio: target bio
+ *
+ * Associate @bio with the blkg found from the bio's css and request_queue.
+ * If one is not found, bio_lookup_blkg() creates the blkg.  If a blkg is
+ * already associated, the css is reused and association redone as the
+ * request_queue may have changed.
+ */
+void bio_associate_blkg(struct bio *bio)
+{
+	struct request_queue *q;
+	struct blkcg *blkcg;
+	struct blkcg_gq *blkg;
+
+	if (!bio_has_queue(bio))
+		return;
So, this isn't actually necessary cuz we don't stack with
request_queues but it might be more consistent to call disassociate
before returning above so that even if sth like that happens the
function always guarantees that the blkg and bio agree.

Thanks.
