Revert "nvme: create 'slaves' and 'holders' entries for hidden controllers"

This reverts commit e9a48034d7d1318ece7d4a235838a86c94db9d68.

The slaves and holders link for the hidden gendisks confuse lsblk so that
it errors out on, or doesn't report the nvme multipath devices. Given
that we don't need holder relationships for something that can't even be
directly accessed we should just stop creating those links.

nvme: Don't use a stack buffer for keep-alive command

In nvme_keep_alive() we pass a request with a pointer to an NVMe command on
the stack into blk_execute_rq_nowait(). However, the block layer doesn't
guarantee that the request is fully queued before blk_execute_rq_nowait()
returns. If not, and the request is queued after nvme_keep_alive() returns,
then we'll end up using stack memory that might have been overwritten to
form the NVMe command we pass to hardware.

Fix this by keeping a special command struct in the nvme_ctrl struct right
next to the delayed work struct used for keep-alives.

nvme: host delete_work and reset_work on separate workqueues

We need to ensure that delete_work will be hosted on a different
workqueue than all the works we flush or cancel from it.
Otherwise we may hit a circular dependency warning [1].

Also, given that delete_work flushes reset_work, host reset_work
on nvme_reset_wq and delete_work on nvme_delete_wq. In addition,
fix the flushing in the individual drivers to flush nvme_delete_wq
when draining queued deletes.

nvme-pci: fix NULL pointer reference in nvme_alloc_ns

When the io queues setup or tagset allocation failed, ctrl.tagset is
NULL. But the scan work will still be queued and executed, then panic
comes up due to NULL pointer reference of ctrl.tagset.

To fix this, add a new ctrl state NVME_CTRL_ADMIN_ONLY to inidcate only
admin queue is live. When non io queues or tagset allocation failed, ctrl
enters into this state, scan work will not be started. But async event
work and nvme dev ioctl will be still available. This will be helpful to
do further investigation and recovery.

In case our last path is removed during traffic, we can end up requeueing

Fix this by scheduling requeue work if the namespace being removed is
the last path in the ns_head path list.

nvme: implement multipath access to nvme subsystems

This patch adds native multipath support to the nvme driver. For each
namespace we create only single block device node, which can be used
to access that namespace through any of the controllers that refer to it.
The gendisk for each controllers path to the name space still exists
inside the kernel, but is hidden from userspace. The character device
nodes are still available on a per-controller basis. A new link from
the sysfs directory for the subsystem allows to find all controllers
for a given subsystem.

Currently we will always send I/O to the first available path, this will
be changed once the NVMe Asynchronous Namespace Access (ANA) TP is
ratified and implemented, at which point we will look at the ANA state
for each namespace. Another possibility that was prototyped is to
use the path that is closes to the submitting NUMA code, which will be
mostly interesting for PCI, but might also be useful for RDMA or FC
transports in the future. There is not plan to implement round robin
or I/O service time path selectors, as those are not scalable with
the performance rates provided by NVMe.

The multipath device will go away once all paths to it disappear,
any delay to keep it alive needs to be implemented at the controller
level.

nvme: track shared namespaces

Introduce a new struct nvme_ns_head that holds information about an actual
namespace, unlike struct nvme_ns, which only holds the per-controller
namespace information. For private namespaces there is a 1:1 relation of
the two, but for shared namespaces this lets us discover all the paths to
it. For now only the identifiers are moved to the new structure, but most
of the information in struct nvme_ns should eventually move over.

To allow lockless path lookup the list of nvme_ns structures per
nvme_ns_head is protected by SRCU, which requires freeing the nvme_ns
structure through call_srcu.

nvme: check admin passthru command effects

The NVMe standard provides a command effects log page so the host may
be aware of special requirements it may need to do for a particular
command. For example, the command may need to run with IO quiesced to
prevent timeouts or undefined behavior, or it may change the logical block
formats that determine how the host needs to construct future commands.

This patch saves the nvme command effects log page if the controller
supports it, and performs appropriate actions before and after an admin
passthrough command is completed. If the controller does not support the
command effects log page, the driver will define the effects for known
opcodes. The nvme format and santize are the only commands in this patch
with known effects.

nvme: move controller deletion to common code

Move the ->delete_work and the associated helpers to common code instead
of duplicating them in every driver. This also adds the missing reference
get/put for the loop driver.

nvme: get rid of nvme_ctrl_list

Use the core chrdev code to set up the link between the character device
and the nvme controller. This allows us to get rid of the global list
of all controllers, and also ensures that we have both a reference to
the controller and the transport module before the open method of the
character device is called.

nvme: switch controller refcounting to use struct device

Instead of allocating a separate struct device for the character device
handle embedd it into struct nvme_ctrl and use it for the main controller
refcounting. This removes double refcounting and gets us an automatic
reference for the character device operations. We keep ctrl->device as a
pointer for now to avoid chaning printks all over, but in the future we
could look into message printing helpers that take a controller structure
similar to what other subsystems do.

Note the delete_ctrl operation always already has a reference (either
through sysfs due this change, or because every open file on the
/dev/nvme-fabrics node has a refernece) when it is entered now, so we
don't need to do the unless_zero variant there.

This patch does not change any functionality.
