      block: add an API for Persistent Reservations · bbd3e064
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      This commits adds a driver API and ioctls for controlling Persistent
      Reservations s/genericly/generically/ at the block layer.  Persistent
      Reservations are supported by SCSI and NVMe and allow controlling who gets
      access to a device in a shared storage setup.
      
      Note that we add a pr_ops structure to struct block_device_operations
      instead of adding the members directly to avoid bloating all instances
      of devices that will never support Persistent Reservations.
