Add a use_cmd_list flag in struct Scsi_Host to request keeping track of
all outstanding commands per device.
Default behaviour is not to keep track of cmd_list per sdev, as this may
introduce lock contention. (overhead is more on multi-node NUMA.), and
only enable it on the two drivers that need it.

The SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE command is a medium write command and hence can
fail when the device is write protected. Avoid sending such commands by
making sure that write-cache-enable is disabled even though the device
claim to support it.

This patches fixes a potential buffer overrun in __iscsi_conn_send_pdu.
This function is used by iscsi drivers and userspace to send iscsi PDUs/
commands. For login commands, we have a set buffer size. For all other
commands we do not support data buffers.

Commit 9226b5b440 ("vfs: avoid non-forwarding large load after small
store in path lookup") made link_path_walk() always access the
"hash_len" field as a single 64-bit entity, in order to avoid mixed size
accesses to the members.
However, what I didn't notice was that that effectively means that the
whole "struct qstr this" is now basically redundant. We already
explicitly track the "const char *name", and if we just use "u64
hash_len" instead of "long len", there is nothing else left of the
"struct qstr".
We do end up wanting the "struct qstr" if we have a filesystem with a
"d_hash()" function, but that's a rare case, and we might as well then
just squirrell away the name and hash_len at that point.
End result: fewer live variables in the loop, a smaller stack frame, and
better code generation. And we don't need to pass in pointers variables
to helper functions any more, because the return value contains all the
relevant information. So this removes more lines than it adds, and the
source code is clearer too.

Pull vfs fixes from Al Viro:
"double iput() on failure exit in lustre, racy removal of spliced
dentries from ->s_anon in __d_materialise_dentry() plus a bunch of
assorted RCU pathwalk fixes"
The RCU pathwalk fixes end up fixing a couple of cases where we
incorrectly dropped out of RCU walking, due to incorrect initialization
and testing of the sequence locks in some corner cases. Since dropping
out of RCU walk mode forces the slow locked accesses, those corner cases
slowed down quite dramatically.

move the call of __d_drop(anon) into __d_materialise_unique(dentry, anon)
[fix] lustre: d_make_root() does iput() on dentry allocation failure
The performance regression that Josef Bacik reported in the pathname
lookup (see commit 99d263d4c5 "vfs: fix bad hashing of dentries") made
me look at performance stability of the dcache code, just to verify that
the problem was actually fixed. That turned up a few other problems in
this area.
There are a few cases where we exit RCU lookup mode and go to the slow
serializing case when we shouldn't, Al has fixed those and they'll come
in with the next VFS pull.
But my performance verification also shows that link_path_walk() turns
out to have a very unfortunate 32-bit store of the length and hash of
the name we look up, followed by a 64-bit read of the combined hash_len
field. That screws up the processor store to load forwarding, causing
an unnecessary hickup in this critical routine.
It's caused by the ugly calling convention for the "hash_name()"
function, and easily fixed by just making hash_name() fill in the whole
'struct qstr' rather than passing it a pointer to just the hash value.
With that, the profile for this function looks much smoother.

return the value instead, and have path_init() do the assignment. Broken by
"vfs: Fix absolute RCU path walk failures due to uninitialized seq number",
which was Cc-stable with 2.6.38+ as destination. This one should go where
it went.
To avoid dummy value returned in case when root is already set (it would do
no harm, actually, since the only caller that doesn't ignore the return value
is guaranteed to have nd->root *not* set, but it's more obvious that way),
lift the check into callers. And do the same to set_root(), to keep them
in sync.
