psi tracks the time spent submitting the IO of refaulting pages[1].
But after we tracks refault stalls from swap_readpage[2][3], there
is no need to do so anymore. Since swap_readpage already includes
IO submitting time.

Can we get proper annotations for those please? These bio-level hooks are
horrible and a maintainance nightmware.

It's still needed by file cache refaults!

The first version did that, but it was sprawling and not well-received:

Well, Dave's comments are spot on. Except that we replaced it with
something even more horrible and not something sensible as he suggested.

Confused. I changed it the way Dave suggested, to which he replied
"this is much cleaner and easier to maintain". Are we reading
different threads? Care to elaborate?

What about submit_bio() only counts file cache refaults?
This will reduce redundant calling of psi_memstall_enter()
for swap_readpage().
