This is the start of a series of patches to remove sh->lock.

sync_request takes sh->lock before setting STRIPE_SYNCING to ensure
there is no race with testing it in handle_stripe[56].

Instead, use a new flag STRIPE_SYNC_REQUESTED and test it early
in handle_stripe[56] (after getting the same lock) and perform the
same set/clear operations if it was set.

Commit e9c7469b ("md: implment REQ_FLUSH/FUA support")
introduced R5_WantFUA flag and set rw to WRITE_FUA in that case.
However remaining code still checks whether rw is exactly same
as WRITE or not, so FUAed-write ends up with being treated as
READ. Fix it.

This bug has been present since 2.6.37 and the fix is suitable for any
-stable kernel since then.  It is not clear why this has not caused
more problems.

The @bio->bi_phys_segments consists of active stripes count in the

logical-OR operator should be bitwise one.

Add check to determine if a device needs full resync or if partial resync will do

RAID 5 was assuming that if a device was not In_sync, it must undergo a full
resync.  We add a check to see if 'saved_raid_disk' is the same as 'raid_disk'.
If it is, we can safely skip the full resync and rely on the bitmap for
partial recovery instead.  This is the legitimate purpose of 'saved_raid_disk',
from md.h:
int saved_raid_disk;            /* role that device used to have in the
                                 * array and could again if we did a partial
                                 * resync from the bitmap
                                 */

The sysfs attribute 'resync_start' (known internally as recovery_cp),
records where a resync is up to.  A value of 0 means the array is
not known to be in-sync at all.  A value of MaxSector means the array
is believed to be fully in-sync.

When the size of member devices of an array (RAID1,RAID4/5/6) is
increased, the array can be increased to match.  This process sets
resync_start to the old end-of-device offset so that the new part of
the array gets resynced.

However with RAID1 (and RAID6) a resync is not technically necessary
and may be undesirable.  So it would be good if the implied resync
after the array is resized could be avoided.

So: change 'resync_start' so the value can be changed while the array
is active, and as a precaution only allow it to be changed while
resync/recovery is 'frozen'.  Changing it once resync has started is
not going to be useful anyway.

This allows the array to be resized without a resync by:
  write 'frozen' to 'sync_action'
  write new size to 'component_size' (this will set resync_start)
  write 'none' to 'resync_start'
  write 'idle' to 'sync_action'.

Also slightly improve some tests on recovery_cp when resizing
raid1/raid5.  Now that an arbitrary value could be set we should be
more careful in our tests.

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.

md has some plugging infrastructure for RAID5 to use because the
normal plugging infrastructure required a 'request_queue', and when

So remove all of that code, both in md and raid5.  Subsequent patches

blk_throtl_exit assumes that ->queue_lock still exists,
so make sure that it does.
To do this, we stop redirecting ->queue_lock to conf->device_lock
and leave it pointing where it is initialised - __queue_lock.

As the blk_plug functions check the ->queue_lock is held, we now
take that spin_lock explicitly around the plug functions.  We don't
need the locking, just the warning removal.

This is needed for any kernel with the blk_throtl code, which is
which is 2.6.37 and later.

As spares can be added manually before a reshape starts, we need to
find them all to mark some of them as in_sync.

Previously we would abort looking for spares when we found an
unallocated spare what could not be added to the array (implying there
was no room for new spares).  However already-added spares could be
later in the list, so we need to keep searching.

As spares can be added to the array before the reshape is started,
we need to find and count them when checking there are enough.
The array could have been degraded, so we need to check all devices,
no just those out side of the range of devices in the array before
the reshape.

So instead of checking the index, check the In_sync flag as that
reliably tells if the device is a spare or this purpose.

There are two consecutive 'if' statements.

 if (mddev->delta_disks >= 0)
      ....
 if (mddev->delta_disks > 0)

The code in the second is equally valid if delta_disks == 0, and these
two statements are the only place that 'added_devices' is used.

So make them a single if statement, make added_devices a local
variable, and re-indent it all.

mddev->curr_resync has artificial values of '1' and '2' which are used
by the code which ensures only one resync is happening at a time on
any given device.

These values are internal and should never be exposed to user-space
(except when translated appropriately as in the 'pending' status in
/proc/mdstat).

Unfortunately they are as ->curr_resync is assigned to
->curr_resync_completed and that value is directly visible through
sysfs.

So change the assignments to ->curr_resync_completed to get the same
valued from elsewhere in a form that doesn't have the magic '1' or '2'
values.

If an md device is stacked with other devices that use this pool, or under

than the common pool.

This patch converts md to support REQ_FLUSH/FUA instead of now
deprecated REQ_HARDBARRIER.  In the core part (md.c), the following
changes are notable.

* Unlike REQ_HARDBARRIER, REQ_FLUSH/FUA don't interfere with
  processing of other requests and thus there is no reason to mark the
  queue congested while FLUSH/FUA is in progress.

* REQ_FLUSH/FUA failures are final and its users don't need retry
  logic.  Retry logic is removed.

* Preflush needs to be issued to all member devices but FUA writes can
  be handled the same way as other writes - their processing can be
  deferred to request_queue of member devices.  md_barrier_request()
  is renamed to md_flush_request() and simplified accordingly.

For linear, raid0 and multipath, the core changes are enough.  raid1,
5 and 10 need the following conversions.

* raid1: Handling of FLUSH/FUA bio's can simply be deferred to
  request_queues of member devices.  Barrier related logic removed.

* raid5: Queue draining logic dropped.  FUA bit is propagated through
  biodrain and stripe resconstruction such that all the updated parts
  of the stripe are written out with FUA writes if any of the dirtying
  writes was FUA.  preread_active_stripes handling in make_request()
  is updated as suggested by Neil Brown.

* raid10: FUA bit needs to be propagated to write clones.

There are few situations where it would make any sense to add a spare
when reducing the number of devices in an array, but it is
conceivable:  A 6 drive RAID6 with two missing devices could be
reshaped to a 5 drive RAID6, and a spare could become available
just in time for the reshape, but not early enough to have been
recovered first.  'freezing' recovery can make this easy to
do without any races.

However doing such a thing is a bad idea.  md will not record the
partially-recovered state of the 'spare' and when the reshape
finished it will think that the spare is still spare.
Easiest way to avoid this confusion is to simply disallow it.
