Rework the I/O accounting for bio based drivers to use ->bi_bdev. This means all drivers can now simply use bio_start_io_acct to start accounting, and it will take partitions into account automatically. To end I/O account either bio_end_io_acct can be used if the driver never remaps I/O to a different device, or bio_end_io_acct_remapped if the driver did remap the I/O.

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.
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.
