(Note: I’m just writing this mail because I already responded to patch
2. I wouldn’t have if I didn’t have anything to say regarding the other
patches in this series, so nothing I say here is backed by a strong
opinion from me.)

Works, but I get all itchy, especially given the reasoning in the commit
message, which is basically “Right now this works”.
That sounds to me like maybe in the future someone could get the idea of
moving BlockAcctStats somewhere else and then this is something that we
absolutely must not forget about, lest horrible accidents occur.
Would a back pointer from BlockAcctStats to the BlockBackend work or do
you find that just too ugly and unnecessary? (I think it would help at
least so that we do not forget this place here.)
Or maybe just a comment above BlockAcctStats would help quench my itch,
too, like “Note: blk_stats2blk() expects objects of this type only to
occur as part of a BlockBackend”.

[PATCH 1/3] block/block-backend: add converter from BlockAcctStats to BlockBackend
Right now BlockAcctStats is always reside on BlockBackend. This structure
is not used in any other place. Thus we are able to create a converter
from one pointer to another.
