Ditto for struct io_sq_data. And while this looks fine, nothing is using this accounting. For this to be an acceptable patch, surely the value needs to be used somehow or at least you should be able to query it?

Since the sq thread has a while(1) structure, during this process, there may be a lot of time that is not processing IO but does not exceed the timeout period, therefore, the sqpoll thread will keep running and will keep occupying the CPU. Obviously, the CPU is wasted at this time;Our goal is to count the part of the time that the sqpoll thread actually processes IO, so as to reflect the part of the CPU it uses to process IO, which can be used to help improve the actual utilization of the CPU in the future.
