I don't think it is hot any more.  If it is in one of your workloads
we have a deep problem somewhere.  That being said, futher removing
uses of his old catch-all lock is always good, hopefully we can
eventually remove it entirely.

So this series looks great to me conceptually, but I'm unfortunately
not a very qualified reviewer for the blk-cgroup code.
