In blkdev_issue_zeroout() we are submitting regular WRITE bios, so we do
not need to check for -EOPNOTSUPP specifically in case of error. Also
there is no need to have label submit: because there is no way to jump
out from the while cycle without an error and we really want to exit,
rather than try again. And also remove the check for (sz == 0) since at
that point sz can never be zero.

Currently we are waiting for every submitted REQ_DISCARD bio separately,
but it can have unwanted consequences of repeatedly flushing the queue,
so we rather submit bios in batches and wait for the entire batch, hence
narrowing the window of other ios going in.

Use bio_batch_end_io() and struct bio_batch for that purpose, the same
is used by blkdev_issue_zeroout(). Also change bio_batch_end_io() so we
always set !BIO_UPTODATE in the case of error and remove the check for
bb, since we are the only user of this function and we always set this.

Remove bio_get()/bio_put() from the blkdev_issue_discard() since
bio_alloc() and bio_batch_end_io() is doing the same thing, hence it is
not needed anymore.

I have done simple dd testing with surprising results. The script I have
used is:

for i in $(seq 10); do
        echo $i
        dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=/dev/sdc1 bs=4k &
        sleep 5
done
/usr/bin/time -f %e ./blkdiscard /dev/sdc1

Running time of BLKDISCARD on the whole device:
with patch              without patch
0.95                    15.58

So we can see that in this artificial test the kernel with the patch
applied is approx 16x faster in discarding the device.

In some drives, flush requests are non-queueable. When flush request is
running, normal read/write requests can't run. If block layer dispatches
such request, driver can't handle it and requeue it.  Tejun suggested we
can hold the queue when flush is running. This can avoid unnecessary
requeue.  Also this can improve performance. For example, we have
request flush1, write1, flush 2. flush1 is dispatched, then queue is
hold, write1 isn't inserted to queue. After flush1 is finished, flush2
will be dispatched. Since disk cache is already clean, flush2 will be
finished very soon, so looks like flush2 is folded to flush1.

In my test, the queue holding completely solves a regression introduced by
commit 53d63e6b:

    block: make the flush insertion use the tail of the dispatch list

    It's not a preempt type request, in fact we have to insert it
    behind requests that do specify INSERT_FRONT.

which causes about 20% regression running a sysbench fileio
workload.

Disk event code automatically blocks events on excl write.  This is
primarily to avoid issuing polling commands while burning is in
progress.  This behavior doesn't fit other types of devices with
removeable media where polling commands don't have adverse side
effects and door locking usually doesn't exist.

This patch introduces new genhd flag which controls the auto-blocking
behavior and uses it to enable auto-blocking only on optical devices.

__blkdev_get() doesn't rescan partitions if disk->fops->open() fails,
which leads to ghost partition devices lingering after medimum removal
is known to both the kernel and userland.  The behavior also creates a
subtle inconsistency where O_NONBLOCK open, which doesn't fail even if
there's no medium, clears the ghots partitions, which is exploited to
work around the problem from userland.

Fix it by updating __blkdev_get() to issue partition rescan after
-ENOMEDIA too.

This was reported in the following bz.

cdrom_open() called check_disk_change() after the rest of open path
succeeded which leads to the following bizarre behavior.

* After media change, if the device opened without O_NONBLOCK,
  open_for_data() naturally fails with -ENOMEDIA and
  check_disk_change() is never called.  The media is known to be gone
  and the open failure makes it obvious to the userland but device
  invalidation never happens.

* But if the device is opened with O_NONBLOCK, all the checks are
  bypassed and cdrom_open() doesn't notice that the media is not there
  and check_disk_change() is called and invalidation happens.

There's nothing to be gained by avoiding calling check_disk_change()
on open failure.  Common cases end up calling check_disk_change()
anyway.  All we get is inconsistent behavior.

Fix it by moving check_disk_change() invocation to the top of
cdrom_open() so that it always gets called regardless of how the rest
of open proceeds.

next_pidmap() just quietly accepted whatever 'last' pid that was passed
in, which is not all that safe when one of the users is /proc.

Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range
(and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the
helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without
checking the range of its arguments.

So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT.  The fact that we then do "last+1"
doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the
pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow
case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to
overflow).

In raid5 plugging is used for 2 things:
 1/ collecting writes that require a bitmap update
 2/ collecting writes in the hope that we can create full

We now release these different sets of stripes when plug_cnt
is zero.

Also in make_request, we call mddev_check_plug to hopefully increase
plug_cnt, and wake up the thread at the end if plugging wasn't
achieved for some reason.

When an md device adds a request to a queue, it can call
mddev_check_plugged.
If this succeeds then we know that the md thread will be woken up
shortly, and ->plug_cnt will be non-zero until then, so some
processing can be delayed.

If it fails, then no unplug callback is expected and the make_request
function needs to do whatever is required to make the request happen.

Because of speculative event roll back, it is possible for some event coutners
to decrease between reads on POWER7.  This causes a problem with the way that
counters are updated.  Delta calues are calculated in a 64 bit value and the
top 32 bits are masked.  If the register value has decreased, this leaves us
with a very large positive value added to the kernel counters.  This patch
protects against this by skipping the update if the delta would be negative.
This can lead to a lack of precision in the coutner values, but from my testing
the value is typcially fewer than 10 samples at a time.
