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.

When a driver calls blk_cleanup_queue(), the device should be fully idle.
However, the block layer may have pending plugging timers and the IO
schedulers may have pending work in the work queues. So quisce the device
by waiting for the timer and flushing the work queues.

Until recently, the maximum number of xvd block devices you could attach
to a Xen domU was 16. This limitation turned out to be problematic for
some users, so it was expanded to handle a much larger number of disks.
However, this requires a couple of changes in the way that blkfront
scans for disks. This functionality is already present in the Xen
linux-2.6.18-xen.hg tree; the attached patch adds this functionality to
the mainline xen-blkfront implementation. I successfully tested it on a
2.6.25 tree, and build tested it on 2.6.27-rc3.

Not all callers need (or want!) the mempool backing guarentee, it
essentially means that you can only use bio_alloc() for short allocations
and not for preallocating some bio's at setup or init time.

So add bio_kmalloc() which does the same thing as bio_alloc(), except
it just uses kmalloc() as the backing instead of the bio mempools.

Two mods to blkdev_issue_discard(), thinking ahead to its use on swap:

1. Add gfp_mask argument, so swap allocation can use it where GFP_KERNEL
   might deadlock but GFP_NOIO is safe.

2. Enlarge nr_sects argument from unsigned to sector_t: unsigned long is
   enough to cover a whole swap area, but sector_t suits any partition.

Change sb_issue_discard()'s nr_blocks to sector_t too; but no need seen
for a gfp_mask there, just pass GFP_KERNEL down to blkdev_issue_discard().

Right now SCSI and others do their own command timeout handling.
Move those bits to the block layer.

Instead of having a timer per command, we try to be a bit more clever
and simply have one per-queue. This avoids the overhead of having to
tear down and setup a timer for each command, so it will result in a lot
less timer fiddling.

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.

We need to be able to flush the buffer cache for for more than
just when a disk is changed, so we factor out common cache flush code
in check_disk_change() to an internal flush_disk() routine.  This
routine will then be used for both disk changes and disk resizes (in a
later patch).

it broke callers which expected to get valid return for zero sized
