block: add io_context->active_ref
Currently ioc->nr_tasks is used to decide two things - whether an ioc is done issuing IOs and whether it's shared by multiple tasks. This patch separate out the first into ioc->active_ref, which is acquired and released using {get|put}_io_context_active() respectively. This will be used to associate bio's with a given task. This patch doesn't introduce any visible behavior change. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
