block: loop: fix another reread part failure
loop_clr_fd() can be run piggyback with lo_release(), and under this situation, reread partition may always fail because bd_mutex has been held already.
This patch detects the situation by the reference count, and call __blkdev_reread_part() to avoid acquiring the lock again.
In the meantime, this patch switches to new kernel APIs of blkdev_reread_part() and __blkdev_reread_part().

block: loop: don't hold lo_ctl_mutex in lo_open
The lo_ctl_mutex is held for running all ioctl handlers, and in some ioctl handlers, ioctl_by_bdev(BLKRRPART) is called for rereading partitions, which requires bd_mutex.
So it is easy to cause failure because trylock(bd_mutex) may fail inside blkdev_reread_part(), and follows the lock context:
blkid or other application: ->open() ->mutex_lock(bd_mutex) ->lo_open() ->mutex_lock(lo_ctl_mutex)
losetup(set fd ioctl): ->mutex_lock(lo_ctl_mutex) ->ioctl_by_bdev(BLKRRPART) ->trylock(bd_mutex)
This patch trys to eliminate the ABBA lock dependency by removing lo_ctl_mutext in lo_open() with the following approach:
1) make lo_refcnt as atomic_t and avoid acquiring lo_ctl_mutex in lo_open(): - for open vs. add/del loop, no any problem because of loop_index_mutex - freeze request queue during clr_fd, so I/O can't come until clearing fd is completed, like the effect of holding lo_ctl_mutex in lo_open - both open() and release() have been serialized by bd_mutex already
2) don't hold lo_ctl_mutex for decreasing/checking lo_refcnt in lo_release(), then lo_ctl_mutex is only required for the last release.

block: loop: avoiding too many pending per work I/O
If there are too many pending per work I/O, too many high priority work thread can be generated so that system performance can be effected.
This patch limits the max_active parameter of workqueue as 16.
This patch fixes Fedora 22 live booting performance regression when it is booted from squashfs over dm based on loop, and looks the following reasons are related with the problem:
- not like other filesyststems(such as ext4), squashfs is a bit special, and I observed that increasing I/O jobs to access file in squashfs only improve I/O performance a little, but it can make big difference for ext4
- nested loop: both squashfs.img and ext3fs.img are mounted as loop block, and ext3fs.img is inside the squashfs
- during booting, lots of tasks may run concurrently

Documentation/workqueue.txt: If there is dependency among multiple work items used during memory reclaim, they should be queued to separate wq each with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.
Loop devices can be stacked, so we have to convert to per-device workqueue. One example is Fedora live CD.

block: destroy bdi before blockdev is unregistered.
Because of the peculiar way that md devices are created (automatically when the device node is opened), a new device can be created and registered immediately after the blk_unregister_region(disk_devt(disk), disk->minors); call in del_gendisk().
Therefore it is important that all visible artifacts of the previous device are removed before this call. In particular, the 'bdi'.
Since: commit c4db59d31e39ea067c32163ac961e9c80198fd37 Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> fs: don't reassign dirty inodes to default_backing_dev_info
moved the device_unregister(bdi->dev); call from bdi_unregister() to bdi_destroy() it has been quite easy to lose a race and have a new (e.g.) "md127" be created after the blk_unregister_region() call and before bdi_destroy() is ultimately called by the final 'put_disk', which must come after del_gendisk().
The new device finds that the bdi name is already registered in sysfs and complains
> [ 9627.630029] WARNING: CPU: 18 PID: 3330 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x5a/0x70() > [ 9627.630032] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/virtual/bdi/9:127'
We can fix this by moving the bdi_destroy() call out of blk_release_queue() (which can happen very late when a refcount reaches zero) and into blk_cleanup_queue() - which happens exactly when the md device driver calls it.
Then it is only necessary for md to call blk_cleanup_queue() before del_gendisk(). As loop.c devices are also created on demand by opening the device node, we make the same change there.

block: loop: improve performance via blk-mq
The conversion is a bit straightforward, and use work queue to dispatch requests of loop block, and one big change is that requests is submitted to backend file/device concurrently with work queue, so throughput may get improved much. Given write requests over same file are often run exclusively, so don't handle them concurrently for avoiding extra context switch cost, possible lock contention and work schedule cost. Also with blk-mq, there is opportunity to get loop I/O merged before submitting to backend file/device.
In the following test: - base: v3.19-rc2-2041231 - loop over file in ext4 file system on SSD disk - bs: 4k, libaio, io depth: 64, O_DIRECT, num of jobs: 1 - throughput: IOPS
------------------------------------------------------ | | base | base with loop-mq | delta | ------------------------------------------------------ | randread | 1740 | 25318 | +1355%| ------------------------------------------------------ | read | 42196 | 51771 | +22.6%| ----------------------------------------------------- | randwrite | 35709 | 34624 | -3% | ----------------------------------------------------- | write | 39137 | 40326 | +3% | -----------------------------------------------------
So loop-mq can improve throughput for both read and randread, meantime, performance of write and randwrite isn't hurted basically.
Another benefit is that loop driver code gets simplified much after blk-mq conversion, and the patch can be thought as cleanup too.

loop: fix crash when using unassigned loop device
When the loop module is loaded, it creates 8 loop devices /dev/loop[0-7]. The devices have no request routine and thus, when they are used without being assigned, a crash happens.
For example, these commands cause crash (assuming there are no used loop devices):

block: fix a probe argument to blk_register_region
The probe function is supposed to return NULL on failure (as we can see in kobj_lookup: kobj = probe(dev, index, data); ... if (kobj) return kobj;
However, in loop and brd, it returns negative error from ERR_PTR.
This causes a crash if we simulate disk allocation failure and run less -f /dev/loop0 because the negative number is interpreted as a pointer:
