With cgroup_id set, the file backend's Flush, DSM and Write Zeroes and
zone management now run synchronously in the command's blkcg_wq work
item and hold one of its max_active slots for the whole vfs_fsync(),
vfs_fallocate() or zone operation. This probably deserves at least a
comment. Can you add one?

From the cgroup and workqueue side,
