Merge branch 'for-4.14/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the first pull request for 4.14, containing most of the code
changes. It's a quiet series this round, which I think we needed after
the churn of the last few series. This contains:

- Fix for a registration race in loop, from Anton Volkov.

- Overflow complaint fix from Arnd for DAC960.

- Series of drbd changes from the usual suspects.

- Conversion of the stec/skd driver to blk-mq. From Bart.

- A few BFQ improvements/fixes from Paolo.

- CFQ improvement from Ritesh, allowing idling for group idle.

- A few fixes found by Dan's smatch, courtesy of Dan.

- A warning fixup for a race between changing the IO scheduler and
device remova. From David Jeffery.

- A few nbd fixes from Josef.

- Support for cgroup info in blktrace, from Shaohua.

- Also from Shaohua, new features in the null_blk driver to allow it
to actually hold data, among other things.

- Various corner cases and error handling fixes from Weiping Zhang.

- Improvements to the IO stats tracking for blk-mq from me. Can
drastically improve performance for fast devices and/or big
machines.

- Series from Christoph removing bi_bdev as being needed for IO
submission, in preparation for nvme multipathing code.

- Series from Bart, including various cleanups and fixes for switch
fall through case complaints"

block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).

For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.

Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

Quite a few fixes here that have been sent since the merge window, the
biggest one is the fix from Tony for some confusion with the device
property API which was causing issues with the of-graph card. This is
fixed with some changes in the graph API itself as it seemed very likely
to be error prone.

Merge branch 'for-4.13/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Pull core block/IO updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for the block layer for 4.13. Not a huge
round in terms of features, but there's a lot of churn related to some
core cleanups.

Note this depends on the UUID tree pull request, that Christoph
already sent out.

This pull request contains:

- A series from Christoph, unifying the error/stats codes in the
block layer. We now use blk_status_t everywhere, instead of using
different schemes for different places.

- Also from Christoph, some cleanups around request allocation and IO
scheduler interactions in blk-mq.

- And yet another series from Christoph, cleaning up how we handle
and do bounce buffering in the block layer.

- A blk-mq debugfs series from Bart, further improving on the support
we have for exporting internal information to aid debugging IO
hangs or stalls.

- Also from Bart, a series that cleans up the request initialization
differences across types of devices.

- A series from Goldwyn Rodrigues, allowing the block layer to return
failure if we will block and the user asked for non-blocking.

- Patch from Hannes for supporting setting loop devices block size to
that of the underlying device.

- Two series of patches from Javier, fixing various issues with
lightnvm, particular around pblk.

- A series from me, adding support for write hints. This comes with
NVMe support as well, so applications can help guide data placement
on flash to improve performance, latencies, and write
amplification.

- A series from Ming, improving and hardening blk-mq support for
stopping/starting and quiescing hardware queues.

- Two pull requests for NVMe updates. Nothing major on the feature
side, but lots of cleanups and bug fixes. From the usual crew.

- A series from Neil Brown, greatly improving the bio rescue set
support. Most notably, this kills the bio rescue work queues, if we
don't really need them.

- Lots of other little bug fixes that are all over the place"

Replace bi_error with a new bi_status to allow for a clear conversion.

proper blk_status_t value.
