Commitd208b89401("dm: fix mempool NULL pointer race when completing IO") didn't go far enough. When bio_end_io_acct ends the count of in-flight I/Os may reach zero and the DM device may be suspended. There is a possibility that the suspend races with dm_stats_account_io. Fix this by adding percpu "pending_io" counters to track outstanding dm_io. Move kicking of suspend queue to dm_io_dec_pending(). Also, rename md_in_flight_bios() to dm_in_flight_bios() and update it to iterate all pending_io counters.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
