2 comments after a quick look.

 - I don't recommend generic work queue. More stacked dependency between "work"
   is not good. (I think disk-driver uses "work" for their jobs.)

 - It seems this bio-cgroup can queue the bio to infinite. Then, a process can submit
   io unitl cause OOM.
   (IIUC, Dirty bit of the page is cleared at submitting I/O. 
    Then dirty_ratio can't help us.)
   please add "wait for congestion by sleeping" code in bio-cgroup.


Thanks,
