78d7f5f726 md/raid1: tidy up new functions: process_checks and fix_sync_read_error.
These changes are mostly cosmetic:

1/ change mddev->raid_disks to conf->raid_disks because the later is
   technically safer, though in current practice it doesn't matter in
   this particular context.
2/ Rearrange two for / if loops to have an early 'continue' so the
   body of the 'if' doesn't need to be indented so much.

- there is no need to test_bit Faulty, as that was already done in
  md_error which is the only caller of these functions.
- MD_CHANGE_DEVS should be set *after* faulty is set to ensure

8258c53208 md/bitmap: fix saving of events_cleared and other state.
If a bitmap is found to be 'stale' the events_cleared value
is set to match 'events'.
However if the array is degraded this does not get stored on disk.
This can subsequently lead to incorrect behaviour.

So change bitmap_update_sb to always update events_cleared in the
superblock from the known events_cleared.
For neatness also set ->state from ->flags.
This requires updating ->state whenever we update ->flags, which makes
sense anyway.

This is suitable for any active -stable release.

bedd86b777 md: reject a re-add request that cannot be honoured.
The 'add_new_disk' ioctl can be used to add a device either as a
spare, or as an active disk that just needs to be resynced based on
write-intent-bitmap information (re-add)

Currently if a re-add is requested but fails we add as a spare
instead.  This makes it impossible for user-space to check for
failure.

So change to require that a re-add attempt will either succeed or
completely fail.  User-space can then decide what to do next.

b0140891a8 md: Fix race when creating a new md device.
There is a race when creating an md device by opening /dev/mdXX.

If two processes do this at much the same time they will follow the
call path
  __blkdev_get -> get_gendisk -> kobj_lookup

The first will call
  -> md_probe -> md_alloc -> add_disk -> blk_register_region

and the race happens when the second gets to kobj_lookup after
add_disk has called blk_register_region but before it returns to
md_alloc.

In the case the second will not call md_probe (as the probe is already
done) but will get a handle on the gendisk, return to __blkdev_get
which will then call md_open (via the ->open) pointer.

As mddev->gendisk hasn't been set yet, md_open will think something is
wrong an return with ERESTARTSYS.

This can loop endlessly while the first thread makes no progress
through add_disk.  Nothing is blocking it, but due to scheduler
behaviour it doesn't get a turn.
So this is essentially a live-lock.

We fix this by simply moving the assignment to mddev->gendisk before
the call the add_disk() so md_open doesn't get confused.
Also move blk_queue_flush earlier because add_disk should be as late
as possible.

To make sure that md_open doesn't complete until md_alloc has done all
that is needed, we take mddev->open_mutex during the last part of
md_alloc.  md_open will wait for this.

This can cause a lock-up on boot so Cc:ing for stable.
For 2.6.36 and earlier a different patch will be needed as the
'blk_queue_flush' call isn't there.

7c13edc875 md: incorporate new plugging into raid5.
In raid5 plugging is used for 2 things:
 1/ collecting writes that require a bitmap update
 2/ collecting writes in the hope that we can create full
    stripes - or at least more-full.

We now release these different sets of stripes when plug_cnt
is zero.

Also in make_request, we call mddev_check_plug to hopefully increase
plug_cnt, and wake up the thread at the end if plugging wasn't
achieved for some reason.

97658cdd3a md: provide generic support for handling unplug callbacks.
When an md device adds a request to a queue, it can call
mddev_check_plugged.
If this succeeds then we know that the md thread will be woken up
shortly, and ->plug_cnt will be non-zero until then, so some
processing can be delayed.

If it fails, then no unplug callback is expected and the make_request
function needs to do whatever is required to make the request happen.

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)

2991520200 dm stripe: implement merge method
Implement a merge function in the striped target.

When the striped target's underlying devices provide a merge_bvec_fn
(like all DM devices do via dm_merge_bvec) it is important to call down
to them when building a biovec that doesn't span a stripe boundary.

Without the merge method, a striped DM device stacked on DM devices
causes bios with a single page to be submitted which results
in unnecessary overhead that hurts performance.

This change really helps filesystems (e.g. XFS and now ext4) which take
care to assemble larger bios.  By implementing stripe_merge(), DM and the
stripe target no longer undermine the filesystem's work by only allowing
a single page per bio.  Buffered IO sees the biggest improvement
(particularly uncached reads, buffered writes to a lesser degree).  This
is especially so for more capable "enterprise" storage LUNs.

The performance improvement has been measured to be ~12-35% -- when a
reasonable chunk_size is used (e.g. 64K) in conjunction with a stripe
count that is a power of 2.

In contrast, the performance penalty is ~5-7% for the pathological worst
case stripe configuration (small chunk_size with a stripe count that is
not a power of 2).  The reason for this is that stripe_map_sector() is
now called once for every call to dm_merge_bvec().  stripe_map_sector()
will use slower division if stripe count isn't a power of 2.

a490a07a67 dm mpath: allow table load with no priority groups
This patch adjusts the multipath target to allow a table with both 0
priority groups and 0 for the initial priority group number.

If any mpath device is held open when all paths in the last priority
group have failed, userspace multipathd will attempt to reload the
associated DM table to reflect the fact that the device no longer has
any priority groups.  But the reload attempt always failed because the
multipath target did not allow 0 priority groups.

All multipath target messages related to priority group (enable_group,
disable_group, switch_group) will handle a priority group of 0 (will
cause error).

When reloading a multipath table with 0 priority groups, userspace
multipathd must be updated to specify an initial priority group number
of 0 (rather than 1).

721a9602e6 block: kill off REQ_UNPLUG
With the plugging now being explicitly controlled by the
submitter, callers need not pass down unplugging hints
to the block layer. If they want to unplug, it's because they
manually plugged on their own - in which case, they should just
unplug at will.

7eaceaccab block: remove per-queue plugging
Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging,
and delay users have been converted to use the new API for that.
So lets kill off the old plugging along with aops->sync_page().

f0b4f7e2f2 md: Fix - again - partition detection when array becomes active
Revert
    b821eaa572
and
    f3b99be19d

When I wrote the first of these I had a wrong idea about the
lifetime of 'struct block_device'.  It can disappear at any time that
the block device is not open if it falls out of the inode cache.

So relying on the 'size' recorded with it to detect when the
device size has changed and so we need to revalidate, is wrong.

Rather, we really do need the 'changed' attribute stored directly in
the mddev and set/tested as appropriate.

Without this patch, a sequence of:
   mknod / open / close / unlink

(which can cause a block_device to be created and then destroyed)
will result in a rescan of the partition table and consequence removal
and addition of partitions.
Several of these in a row can get udev racing to create and unlink and
other code can get confused.

With the patch, the rescan is only performed when needed and so there
are no races.

This is suitable for any stable kernel from 2.6.35.

da9cf5050a md: avoid spinlock problem in blk_throtl_exit
blk_throtl_exit assumes that ->queue_lock still exists,
so make sure that it does.
To do this, we stop redirecting ->queue_lock to conf->device_lock
and leave it pointing where it is initialised - __queue_lock.

As the blk_plug functions check the ->queue_lock is held, we now
take that spin_lock explicitly around the plug functions.  We don't
need the locking, just the warning removal.

This is needed for any kernel with the blk_throtl code, which is
which is 2.6.37 and later.

8f5f02c460 md: correctly handle probe of an 'mdp' device.
'mdp' devices are md devices with preallocated device numbers
for partitions. As such it is possible to mknod and open a partition
before opening the whole device.

this causes  md_probe() to be called with a device number of a
partition, which in-turn calls mddev_find with such a number.

However mddev_find expects the number of a 'whole device' and
does the wrong thing with partition numbers.

So add code to mddev_find to remove the 'partition' part of
a device number and just work with the 'whole device'.

This patch addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28652

cbe6ef1d26 md: don't set_capacity before array is active.
If the desired size of an array is set (via sysfs) before the array is
active (which is the normal sequence), we currrently call set_capacity
immediately.
This means that a subsequent 'open' (as can be caused by some
udev-triggers program) will notice the new size and try to probe for
partitions.  However as the array isn't quite ready yet the read will
fail.  Then when the array is read, as the size doesn't change again
we don't try to re-probe.

So when setting array size via sysfs, only call set_capacity if the
array is already active.
