No, sorry, that was my mistake.  I misread things when I was looking
over your patch last night.

Please resubmit your patch once you've fixed things up and tested it.

I would recommend that you at least try running your patch using the
kvm-xfstests's smoke test[1] before submitting them.  It will save you
and me time.

Sorry that We may miss it completely, we shall double check it and
make the proper patch carefully.

I have checked it again, @es_stats_cache_hits and @es_stats_cache_miesses
have been initialized before the journal inode is loaded, Maybe I miss
something else?

egrep "ext4_es_register_shrinker|ext4_load_journal" fs/ext4/super.c
4260:   if (ext4_es_register_shrinker(sbi))
4302:   err = ext4_load_journal(sb, es, journal_devnum);

Yeah, I noticed this from my test runs last night as well.  It looks
like original patch was never tested with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

The other problem with this patch is that it initializes
es_stats_cache_hits and es_stats_cache_miesses too late.  They will
get used when the journal inode is loaded.  This is mostly harmless,
but it's also wrong.

I've dropped this patch from the ext4 git tree.

This patch is causing the following.  Probably because there's no calls to
percpu_counter_destroy() for the new counters?

Applied with some adjustments so it would apply.  I also changed the patch
