[PATCH v2] blk-cgroup: Replace u64_sync with blkg_stat_lock for stats update

From: Boy Wu <boy.wu at mediatek.com>

In 32bit SMP systems, if multiple CPUs call blkcg_print_stat,
which may cause blkcg_fill_root_iostats to have a concurrent problem
on the seqlock in u64_stats_update, which will cause a deadlock
on u64_stats_fetch_begin in blkcg_print_one_stat.

Thus use blkg_stat_lock to replace u64_sync.

Fixes: ef45fe470e1e ("blk-cgroup: show global disk stats in root cgroup io.stat")
