Fix sort order for disk accounting keys, in order to fix a regression on mount times. The typetag is now the most significant byte of the key, meaning disk accounting keys of the same type now sort together. This lets us skip over disk accounting keys that aren't mirrored in memory when reading accounting at startup, instead of having them interleaved with other counter types.

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 reStructuredText 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.
