24ecfbe27f block: add blk_run_queue_async
Instead of overloading __blk_run_queue to force an offload to kblockd
add a new blk_run_queue_async helper to do it explicitly.  I've kept
the blk_queue_stopped check for now, but I suspect it's not needed
as the check we do when the workqueue items runs should be enough.

99e22598e9 block: drop queue lock before calling __blk_run_queue() for kblockd punt
If we know we are going to punt to kblockd, we can drop the queue
lock before calling into __blk_run_queue() since it only does a
safe bit test and a workqueue call. Since kblockd needs to grab
this very lock as one of the first things it does, it's a good
optimization to drop the lock before waking kblockd.

b4cb290e0a Revert "block: add callback function for unplug notification"
MD can't use this since it really requires us to be able to
keep more than a single piece of state for the unplug. Commit
048c9374 added the required support for MD, so get rid of this
now unused code.

This reverts commit f75664570d.

048c9374a7 block: Enhance new plugging support to support general callbacks
md/raid requires an unplug callback, but as it does not uses
requests the current code cannot provide one.

So allow arbitrary callbacks to be attached to the blk_plug.

49cac01e1f block: make unplug timer trace event correspond to the schedule() unplug
It's a pretty close match to what we had before - the timer triggering
would mean that nobody unplugged the plug in due time, in the new
scheme this matches very closely what the schedule() unplug now is.
It's essentially the difference between an explicit unplug (IO unplug)
or an implicit unplug (timer unplug, we scheduled with pending IO
queued).

f6603783f9 block: only force kblockd unplugging from the schedule() path
For the explicit unplugging, we'd prefer to kick things off
immediately and not pay the penalty of the latency to switch
to kblockd. So let blk_finish_plug() do the run inline, while
the implicit-on-schedule-out unplug will punt to kblockd.

88b996cd06 block: cleanup the block plug helper functions
It's a bit of a mess currently. task->plug is being cleared
and reset in __blk_finish_plug(), and blk_finish_plug() is
testing for a NULL plug which cannot happen even from schedule()
anymore since it uses blk_needs_flush_plug() to determine
whether to call into this function at all.

So get rid of some of the cruft.

f4af3c3d07 block: move queue run on unplug to kblockd
There are worries that we are now consuming a lot more stack in
some cases, since we potentially call into IO dispatch from
schedule() or io_schedule(). We can reduce this problem by moving
the running of the queue to kblockd, like the old plugging scheme
did as well.

This may or may not be a good idea from a performance perspective,
depending on how many tasks have queue plugs running at the same
time. For even the slightly contended case, doing just a single
queue run from kblockd instead of multiple runs directly from the
unpluggers will be faster.

109b81296c block: splice plug list to local context
If the request_fn ends up blocking, we could be re-entering
the plug flush. Since the list is protected by explicitly
not allowing schedule events, this isn't a terribly good idea.

Additionally, it can cause us to recurse. As request_fn called by
__blk_run_queue is allowed to 'schedule()' (after dropping the queue
lock of course), it is possible to get a recursive call:

 schedule -> blk_flush_plug -> __blk_finish_plug -> flush_plug_list
      -> __blk_run_queue -> request_fn -> schedule

We must make sure that the second schedule does not call into
blk_flush_plug again.  So instead of leaving the list of requests on
blk_plug->list, move them to a separate list leaving blk_plug->list
empty.

f83e826181 block: fix request sorting at unplug
Comparison function for list_sort() must be anticommutative,
otherwise it is not sorting in ordinary meaning.

But fortunately list_sort() always check ((*cmp)(priv, a, b) <= 0)
it not distinguish negative and zero, so comparison function can
implement only less-or-equal instead of full three-way comparison.

a63a5cf84d dm: improve block integrity support
The current block integrity (DIF/DIX) support in DM is verifying that
all devices' integrity profiles match during DM device resume (which
is past the point of no return).  To some degree that is unavoidable
(stacked DM devices force this late checking).  But for most DM
devices (which aren't stacking on other DM devices) the ideal time to
verify all integrity profiles match is during table load.

Introduce the notion of an "initialized" integrity profile: a profile
that was blk_integrity_register()'d with a non-NULL 'blk_integrity'
template.  Add blk_integrity_is_initialized() to allow checking if a
profile was initialized.

Update DM integrity support to:
- check all devices with _initialized_ integrity profiles match
  during table load; uninitialized profiles (e.g. for underlying DM
  device(s) of a stacked DM device) are ignored.
- disallow a table load that would result in an integrity profile that
  conflicts with a DM device's existing (in-use) integrity profile
- avoid clearing an existing integrity profile
- validate all integrity profiles match during resume; but if they
  don't all we can do is report the mismatch (during resume we're past
  the point of no return)
