I will move this to within the lock. To make things safe, I am also
thinking of rechecking both blkcg_policy_enabled()  and
blk_queue_bypass() after reacquiring the locks in each iteration.

The challenge with that approach is creating a new_blkg with the right
blkcg before passing to blkg_lookup_create(). blkg_lookup_create()
walks down the hierarchy and will try to fill the first missing entry
and the preallocated new_blkg must have been created with the right
blkcg (feel free to send a code fragment if you think I am
misunderstanding the suggestion).
