blkg->dev is dev_t recording the device number of the block device for the associated request_queue. It is used to identify the associated block device when printing out configuration or stats. This is redundant to begin with. A blkg is an association between a cgroup and a request_queue and it of course is possible to reach request_queue from blkg and synchronization conventions are in place for safe q dereferencing, so this shouldn't be necessary from the beginning. Furthermore, it's initialized by sscanf()ing the device name of backing_dev_info. The mind boggles. Anyways, if blkg is visible under rcu lock, we *know* that the associated request_queue hasn't gone away yet and its bdi is registered and alive - blkg can't be created for request_queue which hasn't been fully initialized and it can't go away before blkg is removed. Let stat and conf read functions get device name from blkg->q->backing_dev_info.dev and pass it down to printing functions and remove blkg->dev.
