The global variable 'rd_size' is declared as 'int' in source file
arch/arm/kernel/atags_parse.c and as 'unsigned long' in
drivers/block/brd.c. Fix this inconsistency.
Additionally, remove the declarations of rd_image_start, rd_prompt and
rd_doload from parse_tag_ramdisk() since these duplicate existing
declarations in <linux/initrd.h>.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"libnvdimm updates for the latest ACPI and UEFI specifications. This
pull request also includes new 'struct dax_operations' enabling to
undo the abuse of copy_user_nocache() for copy operations to pmem.
The dax work originally missed 4.12 to address concerns raised by Al.
Summary:
- Introduce the _flushcache() family of memory copy helpers and use
them for persistent memory write operations on x86. The
_flushcache() semantic indicates that the cache is either bypassed
for the copy operation (movnt) or any lines dirtied by the copy
operation are written back (clwb, clflushopt, or clflush).
- Extend dax_operations with ->copy_from_iter() and ->flush()
operations. These operations and other infrastructure updates allow
all persistent memory specific dax functionality to be pushed into
libnvdimm and the pmem driver directly. It also allows dax-specific
sysfs attributes to be linked to a host device, for example:
/sys/block/pmem0/dax/write_cache
- Add support for the new NVDIMM platform/firmware mechanisms
introduced in ACPI 6.2 and UEFI 2.7. This support includes the v1.2
namespace label format, extensions to the address-range-scrub
command set, new error injection commands, and a new BTT
(block-translation-table) layout. These updates support inter-OS
and pre-OS compatibility.
- Fix a longstanding memory corruption bug in nfit_test.
- Make the pmem and nvdimm-region 'badblocks' sysfs files poll(2)
capable.
- Miscellaneous fixes and small updates across libnvdimm and the nfit
driver.

The changes in "block: Make most scsi_req_init() calls implicit" mean
that every driver that supports the generic scsi ioctls needs to
call scsi_req_init on newly allocated requests, but that commit didn't
add the call to the ccіss driver. Fix that to avoid crashes when
udev issues SG_IO commands.

Check for that, and remove the various attempts at smart error

Instead of explicitly calling scsi_req_init() after blk_get_request(),
call that function from inside blk_get_request(). Add an
.initialize_rq_fn() callback function to the block drivers that need
it. Merge the IDE .init_rq_fn() function into .initialize_rq_fn()
because it is too small to keep it as a separate function. Keep the
scsi_req_init() call in ide_prep_sense() because it follows a
blk_rq_init() call.

pktcdvd doesn't change the bi_io_vec of the clone bio,
so it is more efficient to use bio_clone_fast(), and not clone
the bi_io_vec.
This requires providing a bio_set, and it is safest to
provide a dedicated bio_set rather than sharing
fs_bio_set, which filesytems use.
This new bio_set, pkt_bio_set, can also be use for the bio_split()
call as the two allocations (bio_clone_fast, and bio_split) are
independent, neither can block a bio allocated by the other.

For bio_clone_fast() we need to specify a bio_set.
We could use fs_bio_set, which bio_clone() uses, or
drbd_md_io_bio_set, which drbd uses for metadata, but it is
generally best to avoid sharing bio_sets unless you can
be certain that there are no interdependencies.
So create a new bio_set, drbd_io_bio_set, and use bio_clone_fast().
Also remove a "XXX cannot fail ???" comment because it definitely
cannot fail - bio_clone_fast() doesn't fail if the GFP flags allow for
sleeping.

bio_clone() makes a copy of the bi_io_vec, but rbd never changes that,
so there is no need for a copy.
bio_clone_fast() can be used instead, which avoids making the copy.
This requires that we provide a bio_set. bio_clone() uses fs_bio_set,
but it isn't, in general, safe to use the same bio_set at different
levels of the stack, as that can lead to deadlocks. As filesystems
use fs_bio_set, block devices shouldn't.
As rbd never stacks, it is safe to have a single global bio_set for
all rbd devices to use. So allocate that when the module is
initialised, and use it with bio_clone_fast().

This patch converts bioset_create() to not create a workqueue by
default, so alloctions will never trigger punt_bios_to_rescuer(). It
also introduces a new flag BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER which tells
bioset_create() to preserve the old behavior.
All callers of bioset_create() that are inside block device drivers,
are given the BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER flag.
biosets used by filesystems or other top-level users do not
need rescuing as the bio can never be queued behind other
bios. This includes fs_bio_set, blkdev_dio_pool,
btrfs_bioset, xfs_ioend_bioset, and one allocated by
target_core_iblock.c.
biosets used by md/raid do not need rescuing as
their usage was recently audited and revised to never
risk deadlock.
It is hoped that most, if not all, of the remaining biosets
can end up being the non-rescued version.

"flags" arguments are often seen as good API design as they allow
easy extensibility.
bioset_create_nobvec() is implemented internally as a variation in
flags passed to __bioset_create().
To support future extension, make the internal structure part of the
API.
i.e. add a 'flags' argument to bioset_create() and discard
bioset_create_nobvec().
Note that the bio_split allocations in drivers/md/raid* do not need
the bvec mempool - they should have used bioset_create_nobvec().

blk_queue_split() is always called with the last arg being q->bio_split,
where 'q' is the first arg.
Also blk_queue_split() sometimes uses the passed-in 'bs' and sometimes uses
q->bio_split.
This is inconsistent and unnecessary. Remove the last arg and always use
q->bio_split inside blk_queue_split()

When a filesystem is mounted from a loop device, writes are
throttled by balance_dirty_pages() twice: once when writing
to the filesystem and once when the loop_handle_cmd() writes
to the backing file. This double-throttling can trigger
positive feedback loops that create significant delays. The
throttling at the lower level is seen by the upper level as
a slow device, so it throttles extra hard.
The PF_LESS_THROTTLE flag was created to handle exactly this
circumstance, though with an NFS filesystem mounted from a
local NFS server. It reduces the throttling on the lower
layer so that it can proceed largely unthrottled.
To demonstrate this, create a filesystem on a loop device
and write (e.g. with dd) several large files which combine
to consume significantly more than the limit set by
/proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio or dirty_bytes. Measure the total
time taken.
When I do this directly on a device (no loop device) the
total time for several runs (mkfs, mount, write 200 files,
umount) is fairly stable: 28-35 seconds.
When I do this over a loop device the times are much worse
and less stable. 52-460 seconds. Half below 100seconds,
half above.
When I apply this patch, the times become stable again,
though not as fast as the no-loop-back case: 53-72 seconds.
There may be room for further improvement as the total overhead still
seems too high, but this is a big improvement.

Rather than constructing a local structure instance on the stack, fill
the fields directly on the shared ring, just like other backends do.
Build on the fact that all response structure flavors are actually
identical (the old code did make this assumption too).

There is no need to use xen_blkif_get()/xen_blkif_put() in the kthread
of xen-blkback. Thread stopping is synchronous and using the blkif
reference counting in the kthread will avoid to ever let the reference
count drop to zero at the end of an I/O running concurrent to
disconnecting and multiple rings.
Setting ring->xenblkd to NULL after stopping the kthread isn't needed
as the kthread does this already.

The be structure must not be freed when freeing the blkif structure
isn't done. Otherwise a use-after-free of be when unmapping the ring
used for communicating with the frontend will occur in case of a
late call of xenblk_disconnect() (e.g. due to an I/O still active
when trying to disconnect).

Today disconnecting xen-blkback is broken in case there are still
I/Os in flight: xen_blkif_disconnect() will bail out early without
releasing all resources in the hope it will be called again when
the last request has terminated. This, however, won't happen as
xen_blkif_free() won't be called on termination of the last running
request: xen_blkif_put() won't decrement the blkif refcnt to 0 as
xen_blkif_disconnect() didn't finish before thus some xen_blkif_put()
calls in xen_blkif_disconnect() didn't happen.
To solve this deadlock xen_blkif_disconnect() and
xen_blkif_alloc_rings() shouldn't use xen_blkif_put() and
xen_blkif_get() but use some other way to do their accounting of
resources.
This at once fixes another error in xen_blkif_disconnect(): when it
returned early with -EBUSY for another ring than 0 it would call
xen_blkif_put() again for already handled rings on a subsequent call.
This will lead to inconsistencies in the refcnt handling.

Replace bi_error with a new bi_status to allow for a clear conversion.
Note that device mapper overloaded bi_error with a private value, which
we'll have to keep arround at least for now and thus propagate to a
