Because blk-cgroup not only works at the lowest level in the stack,
but also for stackable block devices.  It's not a design decision I
particularly agree with, but it's been there forever.

So we need to assign it when creating the bio (we used to do it at
submission time, but the way it was done was horribly ineffcient,
that's why I moved it to allocation time), and then when hitting a
stacked device it get reassinged (which still is horribly inefficient).
