PnP: move pnpacpi/pnpbios_init to after PCI init
We already did that a long time ago for pnp_system_init, but
pnpacpi_init and pnpbios_init remained as subsys_initcalls, and get
linked into the kernel before the arch-specific routines that finalize
the PCI resources (pci_subsys_init).
This means that the PnP routines would either register their resources
before the PCI layer could, or would be unable to check whether a PCI
resource had already been registered. Both are problematic.
I wanted to do this before 2.6.27, but every time we change something
like this, something breaks. That said, _every_ single time we trust
some firmware (like PnP tables) more than we trust the hardware itself
(like PCI probing), the problems have been worse.

Don't allow splice() to files opened with O_APPEND
This is debatable, but while we're debating it, let's disallow the
combination of splice and an O_APPEND destination.
It's not entirely clear what the semantics of O_APPEND should be, and
POSIX apparently expects pwrite() to ignore O_APPEND, for example. So
we could make up any semantics we want, including the old ones.
But Miklos convinced me that we should at least give it some thought,
and that accepting writes at arbitrary offsets is wrong at least for
IS_APPEND() files (which always have O_APPEND set, even if the reverse
isn't true: you can obviously have O_APPEND set on a regular file).
So disallow O_APPEND entirely for now. I doubt anybody cares, and this
way we have one less gray area to worry about.

block: add lld busy state exporting interface
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.

block: add a queue flag for request stacking support
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.

the lower queue has stronger limitations than the upper queue

block: add request update interface
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.

Call flush_disk() after detecting an online resize.
We call flush_disk() to make sure the buffer cache for the disk is
flushed after a disk resize. There are two resize cases, growing and
shrinking. Given that users can shrink/then grow a disk before
revalidate_disk() is called, we treat the grow case identically to
shrinking. We need to flush the buffer cache after an online shrink
because, as James Bottomley puts it,
The two use cases for shrinking I can see are
1. planned: the fs is already shrunk to within the new boundaries
and all data is relocated, so invalidate is fine (any dirty
buffers that might exist in the shrunk region are there only
because they were relocated but not yet written to their
original location).
2. unplanned: In this case, the fs is probably toast, so whether
we invalidate or not isn't going to make a whole lot of
difference; it's still going to try to read or write from
sectors beyond the new size and get I/O errors.
Immediately invalidating shrunk disks will cause errors for outstanding
I/Os for reads/write beyond the new end of the disk to be generated
earlier then if we waited for the normal buffer cache operation. It also
removes a potential security hole where we might keep old data around
from beyond the end of the shrunk disk if the disk was not invalidated.

This patch introduces struct rq_map_data to enable bio_copy_use_iov()

Currently, bio_copy_user_iov allocates bounce pages but

cfq-iosched: fix queue depth detection
CFQ's detection of queueing devices assumes a non-queuing device and detects
if the queue depth reaches a certain threshold. Under some workloads (e.g.
synchronous reads), CFQ effectively forces a unit queue depth, thus defeating
the detection logic. This leads to poor performance on queuing hardware,
since the idle window remains enabled.
This patch inverts the sense of the logic: assume a queuing-capable device,
and detect if the depth does not exceed the threshold.

block: add support for IO CPU affinity
This patch adds support for controlling the IO completion CPU of
either all requests on a queue, or on a per-request basis. We export
a sysfs variable (rq_affinity) which, if set, migrates completions
of requests to the CPU that originally submitted it. A bio helper
(bio_set_completion_cpu()) is also added, so that queuers can ask
for completion on that specific CPU.
In testing, this has been show to cut the system time by as much
as 20-40% on synthetic workloads where CPU affinity is desired.
This requires a little help from the architecture, so it'll only
work as designed for archs that are using the new generic smp
helper infrastructure.

Now that disk and partition handlings are mostly unified, it's easy to
allow disk to have extended device number. This patch makes
add_disk() use extended device number if disk->minors is zero. Both
sd and ide-disk are updated to use this.
* sd_format_disk_name() is implemented which can generically determine
the drive name. This removes disk number restriction stemming from
limited device names.
* If sd index goes over SD_MAX_DISKS (which can be increased now BTW),
sd simply doesn't initialize minors letting block layer choose
extended device number.
* If CONFIG_DEBUG_EXT_DEVT is set, both sd and ide-disk always set
minors to 0 and use extended device numbers.
