From: Pavel Begunkov <asml.silence@xxxxxxxxx>

There are implicit assumptions about struct blk_rq_stats, which make
it's very easy to misuse. The first patch fixes consequences, and the
second employs type-system to prevent recurrences.

Acked-by: Josef Bacik <josef@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Pavel Begunkov (2):
blk-iolatency: Fix zero mean in previous stats
blk-stats: Introduce explicit stat staging buffers
