    block: generic request_queue reference counting · 3ef28e83
    Dan Williams 提交于
    Allow pmem, and other synchronous/bio-based block drivers, to fallback
    on a per-cpu reference count managed by the core for tracking queue
    live/dead state.
    
    The existing per-cpu reference count for the blk_mq case is promoted to
    be used in all block i/o scenarios.  This involves initializing it by
    default, waiting for it to drop to zero at exit, and holding a live
    reference over the invocation of q->make_request_fn() in
    generic_make_request().  The blk_mq code continues to take its own
    reference per blk_mq request and retains the ability to freeze the
    queue, but the check that the queue is frozen is moved to
    generic_make_request().
    
    This fixes crash signatures like the following:
