The problem is that the second bio is finished after 10s instead of 20s.
Root cause:
1) second bio will be flagged:
__blk_throtl_bio
while (true) {
...
if (sq->nr_queued[rw]) -> some bio is throttled already
break
};
bio_set_flag(bio, BIO_THROTTLED); -> flag the bio
2) flagged bio will be dispatched without waiting:
throtl_dispatch_tg
tg_may_dispatch
tg_with_in_bps_limit
if (bps_limit == U64_MAX || bio_flagged(bio, BIO_THROTTLED))
*wait = 0; -> wait time is zero
return true;
commit 9f5ede3c01 ("block: throttle split bio in case of iops limit")
support to count split bios for iops limit, thus it adds flagged bio
checking in tg_with_in_bps_limit() so that split bios will only count
once for bps limit, however, it introduce a new problem that io throttle
won't work if multiple bios are throttled.
In order to fix the problem, handle iops/bps limit in different ways:
1) for iops limit, there is no flag to record if the bio is throttled,
and iops is always applied.
2) for bps limit, original bio will be flagged with BIO_BPS_THROTTLED,
and io throttle will ignore bio with the flag.
Noted this patch also remove the code to set flag in __bio_clone(), it's
introduced in commit 111be88398 ("block-throttle: avoid double
charge"), and author thinks split bio can be resubmited and throttled
again, which is wrong because split bio will continue to dispatch from
caller.

- blk-throttle accounting fix (Laibin)
- Series removing redundant assignments (Michal)
- Expose bio cache via the bio_set, so that DM can use it (Mike)
- Finish off the bio allocation interface cleanups by dealing with
the weirdest member of the family. bio_kmalloc combines a kmalloc
for the bio and bio_vecs with a hidden bio_init call and magic
cleanup semantics (Christoph)
- Clean up the block layer API so that APIs consumed by file systems
are (almost) only struct block_device based, so that file systems
don't have to poke into block layer internals like the
request_queue (Christoph)

It is unsafe to call folio_next() on a folio unless you hold a reference
on it that prevents it from being split or freed. After returning
from the iterator, iomap calls folio_end_writeback() which may drop
the last reference to the page, or allow the page to be split. If that
happens, the iterator will not advance far enough through the bio_vec,
leading to assertion failures like the BUG() in folio_end_writeback()
that checks we're not trying to end writeback on a page not currently
under writeback. Other assertion failures were also seen, but they're
all explained by this one bug.
Fix the bug by remembering where the next folio starts before returning
from the iterator. There are other ways of fixing this bug, but this
seems the simplest.

Refine per-cpu bio alloc cache interfaces so that DM and other block
drivers can properly create and use the cache:
DM uses bioset_init_from_src() to do its final bioset initialization,
so must update bioset_init_from_src() to set BIOSET_PERCPU_CACHE if
%src bioset has a cache.
Also move bio_clear_polled() to include/linux/bio.h to allow users
outside of block core.

Replace the BIO_PERCPU_CACHE bio-internal flag with a REQ_ALLOC_CACHE
one that can be passed to bio_alloc / bio_alloc_bioset, and implement
the percpu cache allocation logic in a helper called from
bio_alloc_bioset. This allows any bio_alloc_bioset user to use the
percpu caches instead of having the functionality tied to struct kiocb.

__bio_clone_fast should also clone integrity and crypto data, as a clone
without those is incomplete. Right now the only caller that can actually
support crypto and integrity data (dm) does it manually for the one
callchain that supports these, but we better do it properly in the core.
Note that all callers except for the above mentioned one also don't need
to handle failure at all, given that the integrity and crypto clones are
based on mempool allocations that won't fail for sleeping allocations.

Pull iomap updates from Matthew Wilcox:
"Convert xfs/iomap to use folios.
This should be all that is needed for XFS to use large folios. There
is no code in this pull request to create large folios, but no
additional changes should be needed to XFS or iomap once they are
created.
Usually this would have come from Darrick, and we had intended that it
would come that route. Between the holidays and various things which
Darrick needed to work on, he asked if I could send things directly.
There weren't any other iomap patches pending for this release, which
probably also played a role"

This is a thin wrapper around bio_add_page(). The main advantage here
is the documentation that folios larger than 2GiB are not supported.
It's not currently possible to allocate folios that large, but if it
ever becomes possible, this function will fail gracefully instead of
doing I/O to the wrong bytes.
