For larger devices, the array of bitmap page pointers can grow very
large (8000 pointers per TB of storage).
For each activity log transaction, we need to flush the associated
bitmap pages to stable storage. Currently, we just "mark" the respective
pages while setting up the transaction, then tell the bitmap code to
write out all marked pages, but skip unchanged pages.
But one such transaction can affect only a small number of bitmap pages,
there is no need to scan the full array of several (ten-)thousand
page pointers to find the few marked ones.
Instead, remember the index numbers of the few affected pages,
and later only re-check those to skip duplicates and unchanged ones.

Apparently we now implicitly get definitions for BITS_PER_PAGE and
BITS_PER_PAGE_MASK from the pid_namespace.h
Instead of renaming our defines, I chose to define only if not yet
defined, but to double check the value if already defined.

__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep. Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep. The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake. As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags. This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:
(1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
(2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback
The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.
So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

both end up submiting a FLUSH|FUA request anyways.

Just trigger the occasional lazy bitmap write-out during resync
from the central wait_for_work() helper.
Previously, during resync, bitmap pages would be written out separately,
synchronously, one at a time, at least 8 times each (every 512 bytes
worth of bitmap cleared).
Now we trigger "merge friendly" bulk write out of all cleared pages
every two seconds during resync, and once the resync is finished.
Most pages will be written out only once.

Some parts of the code assumed that get_ldev_if_state(device, D_ATTACHING)
is sufficient to access the ldev member of the device object. That was
wrong. ldev may not be there or might be freed at any time if the device
has a disk state of D_ATTACHING.
bm_rw()
Documented that drbd_bm_read() is only called from drbd_adm_attach.
drbd_bm_write() is only called when a reference is held, and it is
documented that a caller has to hold a reference before calling
drbd_bm_write()
drbd_bm_write_page()
Use get_ldev() instead of get_ldev_if_state(device, D_ATTACHING)
drbd_bmio_set_n_write()
No longer use get_ldev_if_state(device, D_ATTACHING). All callers
hold a reference to ldev now.
drbd_bmio_clear_n_write()
All callers where holding a reference of ldev anyways. Remove the
misleading get_ldev_if_state(device, D_ATTACHING)
drbd_reconsider_max_bio_size()
Removed the get_ldev_if_state(device, D_ATTACHING). All callers
now pass a struct drbd_backing_dev* when they have a proper
reference, or a NULL pointer.
Before this fix, the receiver could trigger a NULL pointer
deref when in drbd_reconsider_max_bio_size()
drbd_bump_write_ordering()
Used get_ldev_if_state(device, D_ATTACHING) with the wrong assumption.
Remove it, and allow the caller to pass in a struct drbd_backing_dev*
when the caller knows that accessing this bdev is safe.

DRBD was using dev_err() and similar all over the code; instead of having to
write dev_err(disk_to_dev(device->vdisk), ...) to convert a drbd_device into a
kernel device, a DEV macro was used which implicitly references the device
variable. This is terrible; introduce separate drbd_err() and similar macros
with an explicit device parameter instead.

In a setup where a device (aka volume) can replicate to multiple peers and one
connection can be shared between multiple devices, we need separate objects to
represent devices on peer nodes and network connections.
As a first step to introduce multiple connections per device, give each
drbd_device object a single drbd_peer_device object which connects it to a
drbd_connection object.
