bdi: remove BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO

BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is only checked in the swap code, and used to
decided if ->rw_page can be used on a block device. Just check up for
the method instead. The only complication is that zram needs a second
set of block_device_operations as it can switch between modes that
actually support ->rw_page and those who don't.

nvdimm: simplify revalidate_disk handling

The nvdimm block driver abuse revalidate_disk in a strange way, and
totally unrelated to what other drivers do. Simplify this by just
calling nvdimm_revalidate_disk (which seems rather misnamed) from the
probe routines, as the additional bdev size revalidation is pointless
at this point, and remove the revalidate_disk methods given that
it can only be triggered from add_disk, which is right before the
manual calls.

block: move ->make_request_fn to struct block_device_operations

The make_request_fn is a little weird in that it sits directly in
struct request_queue instead of an operation vector. Replace it with
a block_device_operations method called submit_bio (which describes much
better what it does). Also remove the request_queue argument to it, as
the queue can be derived pretty trivially from the bio.

block: simplify queue allocation

Current make_request based drivers use either blk_alloc_queue_node or
blk_alloc_queue to allocate a queue, and then set up the make_request_fn
function pointer and a few parameters using the blk_queue_make_request
helper. Simplify this by passing the make_request pointer to
blk_alloc_queue, and while at it merge the _node variant into the main
helper by always passing a node_id, and remove the superfluous gfp_mask
parameter. A lower-level __blk_alloc_queue is kept for the blk-mq case.

libnvdimm/namespace: Differentiate between probe mapping and runtime mapping

The nvdimm core currently maps the full namespace to an ioremap range
while probing the namespace mode. This can result in probe failures on
architectures that have limited ioremap space.

For example, with a large btt namespace that consumes most of I/O remap
range, depending on the sequence of namespace initialization, the user
can find a pfn namespace initialization failure due to unavailable I/O
remap space which nvdimm core uses for temporary mapping.

nvdimm core can avoid this failure by only mapping the reserved info
block area to check for pfn superblock type and map the full namespace
resource only before using the namespace.

Given that personalities like BTT can be layered on top of any namespace
type create a generic form of devm_nsio_enable (devm_namespace_enable)
and use it inside the per-personality attach routines. Now
devm_namespace_enable() is always paired with disable unless the mapping
is going to be used for long term runtime access.

libnvdimm/btt: Fix LBA masking during 'free list' population

The Linux BTT implementation assumes that log entries will never have
the 'zero' flag set, and indeed it never sets that flag for log entries
itself.

However, the UEFI spec is ambiguous on the exact format of the LBA field
of a log entry, specifically as to whether it should include the
additional flag bits or not. While a zero bit doesn't make sense in the
context of a log entry, other BTT implementations might still have it set.

If an implementation does happen to have it set, we would happily read
it in as the next block to write to for writes. Since a high bit is set,
it pushes the block number out of the range of an 'arena', and we fail
such a write with an EIO.

Follow the robustness principle, and tolerate such implementations by
stripping out the zero flag when populating the free list during
initialization. Additionally, use the same stripped out entries for
detection of incomplete writes and map restoration that happens at this
stage.

Add a sysfs file 'log_zero_flags' that indicates the ability to accept
such a layout to userspace applications. This enables 'ndctl
check-namespace' to recognize whether the kernel is able to handle zero
flags, or whether it should attempt a fix-up under the --repair option.

block: make bdev_ops->rw_page() take a REQ_OP instead of bool

c11f0c0b5bb9 ("block/mm: make bdev_ops->rw_page() take a bool for
read/write") replaced @op with boolean @is_write, which limited the
amount of information going into ->rw_page() and more importantly
page_endio(), which removed the need to expose block internals to mm.

Unfortunately, we want to track discards separately and @is_write
isn't enough information. This patch updates bdev_ops->rw_page() to
take REQ_OP instead but leaves page_endio() to take bool @is_write.
This allows the block part of operations to have enough information
while not leaking it to mm.

libnvdimm, {btt, blk}: do integrity setup before add_disk()

Prior to 25520d55cdb6 ("block: Inline blk_integrity in struct gendisk")
we needed to temporarily add a zero-capacity disk before registering for
blk-integrity. But adding a zero-capacity disk caused the partition
table scanning to bail early, and this resulted in partitions not coming
up after a probe of the BTT or blk namespaces.

We can now register for integrity before the disk has been added, and
this fixes the rescan problems.

libnvdimm, btt: fix uninitialized err_lock

When a sector mode namespace is initially created, the arena's err_lock
is not initialized. If, on the other hand, the namespace already
exists, the mutex is initialized. To fix the issue, I moved the mutex
initialization into the arena_alloc, which is called by both
discover_arenas and create_arenas.

This was discovered on an older kernel where mutex_trylock checks the
count to determine whether the lock is held. Because the data structure
is kzalloc-d, that count was 0 (held), and I/O to the device would hang
forever waiting for the lock to be released (see btt_write_pg, for
example). Current kernels have a different mutex implementation that
checks for a non-null owner, and so this doesn't show up as a problem.
If that lock were ever contended, it might cause issues, but you'd have
to be really unlucky, I think.

libnvdimm, btt: Fix an incompatibility in the log layout

Due to a spec misinterpretation, the Linux implementation of the BTT log
area had different padding scheme from other implementations, such as
UEFI and NVML.

This fixes the padding scheme, and defaults to it for new BTT layouts.
We attempt to detect the padding scheme in use when probing for an
existing BTT. If we detect the older/incompatible scheme, we continue
using it.

As discussed at

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/<20170728165604.10455-1-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com>

someday we will remove rw_page(). If so, we need something to detect
such super-fast storage on which synchronous IO operations like the
current rw_page are always a win.

Introduces BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO to indicate such devices. With it, we
could use various optimization techniques.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

Pull libnvdimm from Dan Williams:
"A rework of media error handling in the BTT driver and other updates.
It has appeared in a few -next releases and collected some late-
breaking build-error and warning fixups as a result.

Summary:

- Media error handling support in the Block Translation Table (BTT)
driver is reworked to address sleeping-while-atomic locking and
memory-allocation-context conflicts.

- The dax_device lookup overhead for xfs and ext4 is moved out of the
iomap hot-path to a mount-time lookup.

- A new 'ecc_unit_size' sysfs attribute is added to advertise the
read-modify-write boundary property of a persistent memory range.

- Preparatory fix-ups for arm and powerpc pmem support are included
along with other miscellaneous fixes"
