We'd like to eventually be able to handle bios with more than
BIO_MAX_PAGES segments; this shouldn't be too hard and it'll simplify
other code in the kernel.
The issue is code that clones the bio and must clone the biovec (i.e.
it can't use bio_clone_fast()) won't be able to allocate a bio with more
than BIO_MAX_PAGES - bio_alloc_bioset() always fails in that case.
Fortunately, it's easy to make blk_queue_bounce() just process part of
the bio if necessary, using bi_remaining to count the splits and punting
the rest back to generic_make_request().

We get a measurable performance increase by handling this in the driver when
we're already looping over the biovec, instead of handling it separately in
generic_make_request() (or bio_add_page() originally)

Near total rewrite of fs/direct-io.c. This makes use of our new bio
splitting functionality, and the fact that generic_make_request() will
take arbitrary size bios - we allocate a bio, pin pages to it directly,
then call the getblocks() function to map it wherever the filesystem
tells us - splitting as needed.
Appears to pass xfstests with CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=y (would appreciate testing from
someone who uses xfstests more than I).
Doesn't quite work with btrfs yet - when running xfstests it eventually get
stuck in an infinite loop somewhere. First thing in the kernel log is a warning
at fs/btrfs/ordered-data.c:288 in btrfs_add_ordered_sum() - if any of the btrfs
people want to take a look that would be a great help.
It _definitely_ needs review/auditing from someone intimately familiar with the
expected behaviour w.r.t. everything related to filesystem semantics and the
handling of the getblocks() call - dio_send_bio() is what primarily implements
that behaviour.

This replaces some of the code that was in __bio_map_user_iov(), and
soon we're going to use this helper in the dio code.
Note that this relies on the recent change to make
generic_make_request() take arbitrary sized bios - we're not using
bio_add_page() here.

generic_make_request() will now do for us what the code in blk-lib.c was
doing manually, with the bio_batch stuff - we still need some looping in
case we're trying to discard/zeroout more than around a gigabyte, but
when we can submit that much at a time doing the submissions in parallel
really shouldn't matter.

The way the block layer is currently written, it goes to great lengths
to avoid having to split bios; upper layer code (such as bio_add_page())
checks what the underlying device can handle and tries to always create
bios that don't need to be split.
But this approach becomes unwieldy and eventually breaks down with
stacked devices and devices with dynamic limits, and it adds a lot of
complexity. If the block layer could split bios as needed, we could
eliminate a lot of complexity elsewhere - particularly in stacked
drivers. Code that creates bios can then create whatever size bios are
convenient, and more importantly stacked drivers don't have to deal with
both their own bio size limitations and the limitations of the
(potentially multiple) devices underneath them. In the future this will
let us delete merge_bvec_fn and a bunch of other code.
We do this by adding calls to blk_queue_split() to the various
make_request functions that need it - a few can already handle arbitrary
size bios. Note that we add the call _after_ any call to blk_queue_bounce();
this means that blk_queue_split() and blk_recalc_rq_segments() don't need to be
concerned with bouncing affecting segment merging.
Some make_request_fns were simple enough to audit and verify they don't
need blk_queue_split() calls. The skipped ones are:
* nfhd_make_request (arch/m68k/emu/nfblock.c)
* axon_ram_make_request (arch/powerpc/sysdev/axonram.c)
* simdisk_make_request (arch/xtensa/platforms/iss/simdisk.c)
* brd_make_request (ramdisk - drivers/block/brd.c)
* loop_make_request
* null_queue_bio
* bcache's make_request fns
Some others are almost certainly safe to remove now, but will be left for future
patches.

The name __smp_call_function_single() doesn't tell much about the
properties of this function, especially when compared to
smp_call_function_single().
The comments above the implementation are also misleading. The main
point of this function is actually not to be able to embed the csd
in an object. This is actually a requirement that result from the
purpose of this function which is to raise an IPI asynchronously.
As such it can be called with interrupts disabled. And this feature
comes at the cost of the caller who then needs to serialize the
IPIs on this csd.
Lets rename the function and enhance the comments so that they reflect
these properties.

The main point of calling __smp_call_function_single() is to send
an IPI in a pure asynchronous way. By embedding a csd in an object,
a caller can send the IPI without waiting for a previous one to complete
as is required by smp_call_function_single() for example. As such,
sending this kind of IPI can be safe even when irqs are disabled.
This flexibility comes at the expense of the caller who then needs to
synchronize the csd lifecycle by himself and make sure that IPIs on a
single csd are serialized.
This is how __smp_call_function_single() works when wait = 0 and this
usecase is relevant.
Now there don't seem to be any usecase with wait = 1 that can't be
covered by smp_call_function_single() instead, which is safer. Lets look
at the two possible scenario:
1) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd embedded
in an object. It looks like a nice and convenient pattern at the first
sight because we can then retrieve the object from the IPI handler easily.
But actually it is a waste of memory space in the object since the csd
can be allocated from the stack by smp_call_function_single(wait = 1)
and the object can be passed an the IPI argument.
Besides that, embedding the csd in an object is more error prone
because the caller must take care of the serialization of the IPIs
for this csd.
2) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd that
is allocated on the stack. It's ok but smp_call_function_single()
can do it as well and it already takes care of the allocation on the
stack. Again it's more simple and less error prone.
Therefore, using the underscore prepend API version with wait = 1
is a bad pattern and a sign that the caller can do safer and more
simple.
There was a single user of that which has just been converted.
So lets remove this option to discourage further users.

In order to remotely restart the watchdog hrtimer, update_timers()
allocates a csd on the stack and pass it to __smp_call_function_single().
There is no partcular need, however, for a specific csd here. Lets
simplify that a little by calling smp_call_function_single()
which can already take care of the csd allocation by itself.

__smp_call_function_single() and smp_call_function_single() share some
code that can be factorized: execute inline when the target is local,
check if the target is online, lock the csd, call generic_exec_single().
Lets move the common parts to generic_exec_single().

The IPI function llist iteration is open coded. Lets simplify this
with using an llist iterator.
Also we want to keep the iteration safe against possible
csd.llist->next value reuse from the IPI handler. At least the block
subsystem used to do such things so lets stay careful and use
llist_for_each_entry_safe().

Abusing rq->csd.list for a list of requests to complete is rather ugly.
We use rq->queuelist instead which is much cleaner. It is safe because
queuelist is used by the block layer only for requests waiting to be
submitted to a device. Thus it is unused when irq reports the request IO
is finished.

(Trivial patch.)
If the code is looking at the RCU-protected pointer itself, but not
dereferencing it, the rcu_dereference() functions can be downgraded to
rcu_access_pointer(). This commit makes this downgrade in blkg_destroy()
and ioc_destroy_icq(), both of which simply compare the RCU-protected
pointer against another pointer with no dereferencing.

When using device mapper, there are many "bio: create slab" messages in
the log. Device mapper targets have different front_pad, so each time when
we load a target that wasn't loaded before, we allocate a slab with the
appropriate front_pad and there is associated "bio: create slab" message.
This patch removes these messages, there is no need for them.
