This patch adds an new interface, blk_lld_busy(), to check lld's
busy state from the block layer.
blk_lld_busy() calls down into low-level drivers for the checking
if the drivers set q->lld_busy_fn() using blk_queue_lld_busy().
This resolves a performance problem on request stacking devices below.
Some drivers like scsi mid layer stop dispatching request when
they detect busy state on its low-level device like host/target/device.
It allows other requests to stay in the I/O scheduler's queue
for a chance of merging.
Request stacking drivers like request-based dm should follow
the same logic.
However, there is no generic interface for the stacked device
to check if the underlying device(s) are busy.
If the request stacking driver dispatches and submits requests to
the busy underlying device, the requests will stay in
the underlying device's queue without a chance of merging.
This causes performance problem on burst I/O load.
With this patch, busy state of the underlying device is exported
via q->lld_busy_fn(). So the request stacking driver can check it
and stop dispatching requests if busy.
The underlying device driver must return the busy state appropriately:
1: when the device driver can't process requests immediately.
0: when the device driver can process requests immediately,
including abnormal situations where the device driver needs
to kill all requests.

The git tree for the blktrace tools comes with its own copy of this header

The current floppy_struct allows floppies to number sectors starting

example, 0xC1 for Amstrad CPC disks.
This extends the existing 1-bit field (FD_ZEROBASED, bit 2 of stretch)
to 8 bits (FD_SECTMASK, bits 2 to 9).
Currently 0x00 denotes a first sector number of 1, and 0x01 denotes a
first sector number of 0. We extend this by interpreting FD_SECTMASK
as the first sector number with the LSB flipped.

This patch adds a queue flag to indicate the block device can be
used for request stacking.
Request stacking drivers need to stack their devices on top of
only devices of which q->request_fn is functional.
Since bio stacking drivers (e.g. md, loop) basically initialize
their queue using blk_alloc_queue() and don't set q->request_fn,
the check of (q->request_fn == NULL) looks enough for that purpose.
However, dm will become both types of stacking driver (bio-based and
request-based). And dm will always set q->request_fn even if the dm
device is bio-based of which q->request_fn is not functional actually.
So we need something else to distinguish the type of the device.
Adding a queue flag is a solution for that.
The reason why dm always sets q->request_fn is to keep
the compatibility of dm user-space tools.
Currently, all dm user-space tools are using bio-based dm without
specifying the type of the dm device they use.
To use request-based dm without changing such tools, the kernel
must decide the type of the dm device automatically.
The automatic type decision can't be done at the device creation time
and needs to be deferred until such tools load a mapping table,
since the actual type is decided by dm target type included in
the mapping table.
So a dm device has to be initialized using blk_init_queue()
so that we can load either type of table.
Then, all queue stuffs are set (e.g. q->request_fn) and we have
no element to distinguish that it is bio-based or request-based,
even after a table is loaded and the type of the device is decided.
By the way, some stuffs of the queue (e.g. request_list, elevator)
are needless when the dm device is used as bio-based.
But the memory size is not so large (about 20[KB] per queue on ia64),
so I hope the memory loss can be acceptable for bio-based dm users.

This patch adds blk_insert_cloned_request(), a generic request
submission interface for request stacking drivers.
Request-based dm will use it to submit their clones to underlying
devices.
blk_rq_check_limits() is also added because it is possible that
the lower queue has stronger limitations than the upper queue
if multiple drivers are stacking at request-level.
Not only for blk_insert_cloned_request()'s internal use, the function
will be used by request-based dm when the queue limitation is
modified (e.g. by replacing dm's table).

This patch adds blk_update_request(), which updates struct request
with completing its data part, but doesn't complete the struct
request itself.
Though it looks like end_that_request_first() of older kernels,
blk_update_request() should be used only by request stacking drivers.
Request-based dm will use it in bio->bi_end_io callback to update
the original request when a data part of a cloned request completes.
Followings are additional background information of why request-based
dm needs this interface.
- Request stacking drivers can't use blk_end_request() directly from
the lower driver's completion context (bio->bi_end_io or rq->end_io),
because some device drivers (e.g. ide) may try to complete
their request with queue lock held, and it may cause deadlock.
See below for detailed description of possible deadlock:
<http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=120311479108569&w=2>
- To solve that, request-based dm offloads the completion of
cloned struct request to softirq context (i.e. using
blk_complete_request() from rq->end_io).
- Though it is possible to use the same solution from bio->bi_end_io,
it will delay the notification of bio completion to the original
submitter. Also, it will cause inefficient partial completion,
because the lower driver can't perform the cloned request anymore
and request-based dm needs to requeue and redispatch it to
the lower driver again later. That's not good.
- So request-based dm needs blk_update_request() to perform the bio
completion in the lower driver's completion context, which is more
efficient.

Two mods to blkdev_issue_discard(), thinking ahead to its use on swap:
1. Add gfp_mask argument, so swap allocation can use it where GFP_KERNEL
might deadlock but GFP_NOIO is safe.
2. Enlarge nr_sects argument from unsigned to sector_t: unsigned long is
enough to cover a whole swap area, but sector_t suits any partition.
Change sb_issue_discard()'s nr_blocks to sector_t too; but no need seen
for a gfp_mask there, just pass GFP_KERNEL down to blkdev_issue_discard().
