cio keeps total number of submitted IOs. For async copy(with endio handler) we
just return after decrementing refcount, if we use atomic_dec_return, we need
to have that endio check twice.
Also this function is called after all the submissions are complete. So race
condition shouldn't happen with this ordered calling.

cio is used to keep track of all the submitted IOs.

ctx is used to keep track of single IO. Each IOs again has 4 parts.
1.READ submission (process/submitter context)
2.READ completion (interrupt context, can't submit WRITE bio here, so we
create a workqueue and submit)
3.WRITE submission by worker (process context)
4.WRITE completion (interrupt context)
So there is a concurrent access to ctx.
Especially if IO is for zoned device we need to maintain order of
READ submissions, so that WRITE order is same as READ.

So cio and ctx refcount serve different purpose and updated accordingly.
Agreed, I can add better comments in next version.

For zoned devices we need to maintain ordering of IOs. Because write
cant be out of order. So we maintain this list.
Again this IO list is accessed concurrently by
a. READ submission
b. READ completion
c. WRITE submission(worker).
So moving to private list won't be possible I feel.
Since we are using global list, we require the lock to synchronize this list.
