d9c0fa509e md: fix max sectors calculation for super 1.0
To grow size of super 1.0 raid array, it is necessary to check the device
max usable size.

Now it uses rdev->sectors for max usable size. If one disk is 500G and the
raid device only uses the 100GB of this disk. rdev->sectors can't tell the
real max usable size. The max usable size should be

dev_size-(superblock_size+bitmap_size+badblock_size).

Also, remove unnecessary sb_start update in super_1_rdev_size_change().

7c9d5c54fb md-cluster: fix safemode_delay value when converting to clustered bitmap
When array convert to clustered bitmap, the safe_mode_delay doesn't
clean and vice versa. the /sys/block/mdX/md/safe_mode_delay keep original
value after changing bitmap type. In safe_delay_store(), the code forbids
setting mddev->safemode_delay when array is clustered. So in cluster-md
env, the expected safemode_delay value should be 0.

Reproducible steps:
```
node1 # mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sd{b,c,d}
node1 # mdadm -C /dev/md0 -b internal -e 1.2 -n 2 -l mirror /dev/sdb /dev/sdc
node1 # cat /sys/block/md0/md/safe_mode_delay
0.204
node1 # mdadm -G /dev/md0 -b none
node1 # mdadm --grow /dev/md0 --bitmap=clustered
node1 # cat /sys/block/md0/md/safe_mode_delay
0.204  <== doesn't change, should ZERO for cluster-md

node1 # mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/sd{b,c,d}
node1 # mdadm -C /dev/md0 -b clustered -e 1.2 -n 2 -l mirror /dev/sdb /dev/sdc
node1 # cat /sys/block/md0/md/safe_mode_delay
0.000
node1 # mdadm -G /dev/md0 -b none
node1 # cat /sys/block/md0/md/safe_mode_delay

7e0adbfc20 md: rewrite md_setup_drive to avoid ioctls
md_setup_drive knows it works with md devices, so it is rather pointless
to open a file descriptor and issue ioctls.  Just call directly into the
relevant low-level md routines after getting a handle to the device using
blkdev_get_by_dev instead.

e1a86dbbbd md: fix deadlock causing by sysfs_notify
The following deadlock was captured. The first process is holding 'kernfs_mutex'
and hung by io. The io was staging in 'r1conf.pending_bio_list' of raid1 device,
this pending bio list would be flushed by second process 'md127_raid1', but
it was hung by 'kernfs_mutex'. Using sysfs_notify_dirent_safe() to replace
sysfs_notify() can fix it. There were other sysfs_notify() invoked from io
path, removed all of them.

41d2d848e5 md: improve io stats accounting
Use generic io accounting functions to manage io stats. There was an
attempt to do this earlier in commit 18c0b223cf ("md: use generic io
stats accounting functions to simplify io stat accounting"), but it did
not include a call to generic_end_io_acct() and caused issues with
tracking in-flight IOs, so it was later removed in commit 74672d069b
("md: fix md io stats accounting broken").

This patch attempts to fix this by using both disk_start_io_acct() and
disk_end_io_acct(). To make it possible, a struct md_io is allocated for
every new md bio, which includes the io start_time. A new mempool is
introduced for this purpose. We override bio->bi_end_io with our own
callback and call disk_start_io_acct() before passing the bio to
md_handle_request(). When it completes, we call disk_end_io_acct() and
the original bi_end_io callback.

This adds correct statistics about in-flight IOs and IO processing time,
interpreted e.g. in iostat as await, svctm, aqu-sz and %util.

It also fixes a situation where too many IOs where reported if a bio was
re-submitted to the mddev, because io accounting is now performed only
on newly arriving bios.

c62b37d96b block: move ->make_request_fn to struct block_device_operations
The make_request_fn is a little weird in that it sits directly in
struct request_queue instead of an operation vector.  Replace it with
a block_device_operations method called submit_bio (which describes much
better what it does).  Also remove the request_queue argument to it, as
the queue can be derived pretty trivially from the bio.

The queue can be trivially derived from the bio, so pass one less
argument.

3024ba2d6c md: remove redundant memalloc scope API usage
In mddev_create_serial_pool(), memalloc scope APIs memalloc_noio_save()
and memalloc_noio_restore() are used when allocating memory by calling
mempool_create_kmalloc_pool(). After adding the memalloc scope APIs in
raid array suspend context, it is unncessary to explicitly call them
around mempool_create_kmalloc_pool() any longer.

This patch removes the redundant memalloc scope APIs in
mddev_create_serial_pool().

78f57ef9d5 md: use memalloc scope APIs in mddev_suspend()/mddev_resume()
In raid5.c:resize_chunk(), scribble_alloc() is called with GFP_NOIO
flag, then it is sent into kvmalloc_array() inside scribble_alloc().

The problem is kvmalloc_array() eventually calls kvmalloc_node() which
does not accept non GFP_KERNEL compatible flag like GFP_NOIO, then
kmalloc_node() is called indeed to allocate physically continuous
pages. When system memory is under heavy pressure, and the requesting
size is large, there is high probability that allocating continueous
pages will fail.

But simply using GFP_KERNEL flag to call kvmalloc_array() is also
progblematic. In the code path where scribble_alloc() is called, the
raid array is suspended, if kvmalloc_node() triggers memory reclaim I/Os
and such I/Os go back to the suspend raid array, deadlock will happen.

What is desired here is to allocate non-physically (a.k.a virtually)
continuous pages and avoid memory reclaim I/Os. Michal Hocko suggests
to use the mmealloc sceope APIs to restrict memory reclaim I/O in
allocating context, specifically to call memalloc_noio_save() when
suspend the raid array and to call memalloc_noio_restore() when
resume the raid array.

This patch adds the memalloc scope APIs in mddev_suspend() and
mddev_resume(), to restrict memory reclaim I/Os during the raid array
is suspended. The benifit of adding the memalloc scope API in the
unified entry point mddev_suspend()/mddev_resume() is, no matter which
md raid array type (personality), we are sure the deadlock by recursive
memory reclaim I/O won't happen on the suspending context.

Please notice that the memalloc scope APIs only take effect on the raid
array suspending context, if the memory allocation is from another new
created kthread after raid array suspended, the recursive memory reclaim
I/Os won't be restricted. The mddev_suspend()/mddev_resume() entries are
used for the critical section where the raid metadata is modifying,
creating a kthread to allocate memory inside the critical section is
queer and very probably being buggy.
