The Kconfig currently enables MSDOS partitions by default because they
are assumed to be essential, but it's necessary to enable "advanced
partition selection" in order to get GPT support. IMO GPT partitions
are becoming common enought to deserve the same treatment MSDOS
partitions get.

(Side note: I got bit by a disk that had MSDOS and GPT partition
tables, but for some reason the MSDOS table was different from the
GPT one. I was stupid enought to disable "advanced partition
selection" in my .config, which disabled GPT partitioning and made
my btrfs pool unbootable because it couldn't find the partitions)

Some request_fn implementations, e.g. scsi_request_fn(), unlock
the queue lock internally. This may result in multiple threads
executing request_fn for the same queue simultaneously. Keep
track of the number of active request_fn calls and make sure that
blk_cleanup_queue() waits until all active request_fn invocations
have finished. A block driver may start cleaning up resources
needed by its request_fn as soon as blk_cleanup_queue() finished,
so blk_cleanup_queue() must wait for all outstanding request_fn
invocations to finish.

Running a queue must continue after it has been marked dying until
it has been marked dead. So the function blk_run_queue_async() must
not schedule delayed work after blk_cleanup_queue() has marked a queue
dead. Hence add a test for that queue state in blk_run_queue_async()
and make sure that queue_unplugged() invokes that function with the
queue lock held. This avoids that the queue state can change after
it has been tested and before mod_delayed_work() is invoked. Drop
the queue dying test in queue_unplugged() since it is now
superfluous: __blk_run_queue() already tests whether or not the
queue is dead.

A block driver may start cleaning up resources needed by its
request_fn as soon as blk_cleanup_queue() finished, so request_fn
must not be invoked after draining finished. This is important
when blk_run_queue() is invoked without any requests in progress.
As an example, if blk_drain_queue() and scsi_run_queue() run in
parallel, blk_drain_queue() may have finished all requests after
scsi_run_queue() has taken a SCSI device off the starved list but
before that last function has had a chance to run the queue.

QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD is used to indicate that queuing new requests must
stop. After this flag has been set queue draining starts. However,
during the queue draining phase it is still safe to invoke the
queue's request_fn, so QUEUE_FLAG_DYING is a better name for this
flag.

This patch has been generated by running the following command
over the kernel source tree:

git grep -lEw 'blk_queue_dead|QUEUE_FLAG_DEAD' |

In realtime environments, it may be desirable to keep the per-bdi
flusher threads from running on certain cpus.  This patch adds a
cpu_list file to /sys/class/bdi/* to enable this.  The default is to tie
the flusher threads to the same numa node as the backing device (though
I could be convinced to make it a mask of all cpus to avoid a change in
behaviour).

Signed-off-by: NJens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

In a workload, thread 1 accesses a, a+2, ..., thread 2 accesses a+1, a+3,....
When the requests are flushed to queue, a and a+1 are merged to (a, a+1), a+2
and a+3 too to (a+2, a+3), but (a, a+1) and (a+2, a+3) aren't merged.

If we do recursive merge for such interleave access, some workloads throughput
get improvement. A recent worload I'm checking on is swap, below change
boostes the throughput around 5% ~ 10%.

request is queued in cfqq->fifo list. Looks it's possible we are moving a
request from one cfqq to another in request merge case. In such case, adjusting
the fifo list order doesn't make sense and is impossible if we don't iterate
the whole fifo list.

My test does hit one case the two cfqq are different, but didn't cause kernel
crash, maybe it's because fifo list isn't used frequently. Anyway, from the
code logic, this is buggy.

I thought we can re-enable the recusive merge logic after this is fixed.

When creating an L2TPv3 Ethernet session, if register_netdev() should fail for
any reason (for example, automatic naming for "l2tpeth%d" interfaces hits the
32k-interface limit), the netdev is freed in the error path.  However, the
l2tp_eth_sess structure's dev pointer is left uncleared, and this results in
l2tp_eth_delete() then attempting to unregister the same netdev later in the
session teardown.  This results in an oops.

To avoid this, clear the session dev pointer in the error path.

	Subject: frv: split ret_from_fork, simplify kernel_thread() a lot

The problem is that the userspace registers are completely cleared when a
kernel thread is created and all subsequent user threads are then copied from
that.  Unfortunately, however, the TBR and PSR registers are restored from the
pt_regs and the values they should be set to are clobbered by the memset.

Instead, copy across the old user registers as normal, and then merely alter
GR8 and GR9 in it if we're going to execute a kernel thread.
