2017-01-27dm: always defer request allocation to the owner of the request_queueChristoph Hellwig
DM already calls blk_mq_alloc_request on the request_queue of the underlying device if it is a blk-mq device. But now that we allow drivers to allocate additional data and initialize it ahead of time we need to do the same for all drivers. Doing so and using the new cmd_size infrastructure in the block layer greatly simplifies the dm-rq and mpath code, and should also make arbitrary combinations of SQ and MQ devices with SQ or MQ device mapper tables easily possible as a further step.

2016-06-10dm: move request-based code out to dm-rq.[hc]Mike Snitzer
Add some seperation between bio-based and request-based DM core code. 'struct mapped_device' and other DM core only structures and functions have been moved to dm-core.h and all relevant DM core .c files have been updated to include dm-core.h rather than dm.h DM targets should _never_ include dm-core.h!
