dm writecache: count number of blocks written, not number of write bios
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit b2676e1 ]

Change dm-writecache, so that it counts the number of blocks written
instead of the number of write bios. Bios can be split and requeued
using the dm_accept_partial_bio function, so counting bios caused
inaccurate results.

Fixes: e3a35d0 ("dm writecache: add event counters")
