blkcg: invoke blkcg_policy->pd_init() after parent is linked
Currently, when creating a new blkcg_gq, each policy's pd_init_fn() is
invoked in blkg_alloc() before the parent is linked. This makes it
difficult for policies to perform initializations which are dependent
on the parent.
This patch moves pd_init_fn() invocations to blkg_create() after the
parent blkg is linked where the new blkg is fully initialized. As
this means that blkg_free() can't assume that pd's are initialized,
pd_exit_fn() invocations are moved to __blkg_release(). This
guarantees that pd_exit_fn() is also invoked with fully initialized
blkgs with valid parent pointers.
This will help implementing hierarchy support in blk-throttle.
