loop: don't set QUEUE_FLAG_NOMERGES

[ Upstream commit 667ea36378cf7f669044b27871c496e1559c872a ]

QUEUE_FLAG_NOMERGES isn't really a driver interface, but a user tunable.
There also isn't any good reason to set it in the loop driver.

The original commit adding it (5b5e20f421c0b6d "block: loop: set
QUEUE_FLAG_NOMERGES for request queue of loop") claims that "It doesn't
make sense to enable merge because the I/O submitted to backing file is
handled page by page." which of course isn't true for multi-page bvec
now, and it never has been for direct I/O, for which commit 40326d8a33d
("block/loop: allow request merge for directio mode") alredy disabled
the nomerges flag.

loop: fix the the direct I/O support check when used on top of block devices

[ Upstream commit baa7d536077dcdfe2b70c476a8873d1745d3de0f ]

__loop_update_dio only checks the alignment requirement for block backed
file systems, but misses them for the case where the loop device is
created directly on top of another block device. Due to this creating
a loop device with default option plus the direct I/O flag on a > 512 byte
sector size file system will lead to incorrect I/O being submitted to the
lower block device and a lot of error from the lock layer. This can
be seen with xfstests generic/563.

Fix the code in __loop_update_dio by factoring the alignment check into
a helper, and calling that also for the struct block_device of a block
device inode.

Also remove the TODO comment talking about dynamically switching between
buffered and direct I/O, which is a would be a recipe for horrible
performance and occasional data loss.

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.super' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull superblock updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the super rework that was ready for this cycle. The
first part changes the order of how we open block devices and allocate
superblocks, contains various cleanups, simplifications, and a new
mechanism to wait on superblock state changes.

This unblocks work to ultimately limit the number of writers to a
block device. Jan has already scheduled follow-up work that will be
ready for v6.7 and allows us to restrict the number of writers to a
given block device. That series builds on this work right here.

The second part contains filesystem freezing updates.

Overview:

The generic superblock changes are rougly organized as follows
(ignoring additional minor cleanups):

(1) Removal of the bd_super member from struct block_device.

This was a very odd back pointer to struct super_block with
unclear rules. For all relevant places we have other means to get
the same information so just get rid of this.

(2) Simplify rules for superblock cleanup.

Roughly, everything that is allocated during fs_context
initialization and that's stored in fs_context->s_fs_info needs
to be cleaned up by the fs_context->free() implementation before
the superblock allocation function has been called successfully.

After sget_fc() returned fs_context->s_fs_info has been
transferred to sb->s_fs_info at which point sb->kill_sb() if
fully responsible for cleanup. Adhering to these rules means that
cleanup of sb->s_fs_info in fill_super() is to be avoided as it's
brittle and inconsistent.

Cleanup shouldn't be duplicated between sb->put_super() as
sb->put_super() is only called if sb->s_root has been set aka
when the filesystem has been successfully born (SB_BORN). That
complexity should be avoided.

This also means that block devices are to be closed in
sb->kill_sb() instead of sb->put_super(). More details in the
lower section.

(3) Make it possible to lookup or create a superblock before opening
block devices

There's a subtle dependency on (2) as some filesystems did rely
on fill_super() to be called in order to correctly clean up
sb->s_fs_info. All these filesystems have been fixed.

(4) Switch most filesystem to follow the same logic as the generic
mount code now does as outlined in (3).

(5) Use the superblock as the holder of the block device. We can now
easily go back from block device to owning superblock.

(6) Export and extend the generic fs_holder_ops and use them as
holder ops everywhere and remove the filesystem specific holder
ops.

(7) Call from the block layer up into the filesystem layer when the
block device is removed, allowing to shut down the filesystem
without risk of deadlocks.

(8) Get rid of get_super().

We can now easily go back from the block device to owning
superblock and can call up from the block layer into the
filesystem layer when the device is removed. So no need to wade
through all registered superblock to find the owning superblock
anymore"

ASoC: Updates for v6.6

Here's an initial batch of updates for ASoC for this release cycle.
We've got a bunch of new drivers in here, a bit of core work from
Morimoto-san and quite a lot of janitorial work. There's several
updates that pull in changes from other subsystems in order to build
on them:

- An adaptor to allow use of IIO DACs and ADCs in ASoC which pulls in
some IIO changes.
- Create a library function for intlog10() and use it in the NAU8825
driver.
- Include the ASoC tests, including the topology tests, in the default
KUnit full test coverage. This also involves enabling UML builds of
ALSA since that's the default KUnit test environment which pulls in
the addition of some stubs to the driver.
- More factoring out from Morimoto-san.
- Convert a lot of drivers to use the more modern maple tree register
cache.
- Support for AMD machines with MAX98388 and NAU8821, Cirrus Logic
CS35L36, Intel AVS machines with ES8336 and RT5663 and NXP i.MX93.

loop: do not enforce max_loop hard limit by (new) default

Problem:

The max_loop parameter is used for 2 different purposes:

1) initial number of loop devices to pre-create on init
2) maximum number of loop devices to add on access/open()

Historically, its default value (zero) caused 1) to create non-zero
number of devices (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP_MIN_COUNT), and no hard limit on
2) to add devices with autoloading.

However, the default value changed in commit 85c50197716c ("loop: Fix
the max_loop commandline argument treatment when it is set to 0") to
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP_MIN_COUNT, for max_loop=0 not to pre-create devices.

That does improve 1), but unfortunately it breaks 2), as the default
behavior changed from no-limit to hard-limit.

Example:

For example, this userspace code broke for N >= CONFIG, if the user
relied on the default value 0 for max_loop:

mknod("/dev/loopN");
open("/dev/loopN"); // now fails with ENXIO

Though affected users may "fix" it with (loop.)max_loop=0, this means to
require a kernel parameter change on stable kernel update (that commit
Fixes: an old commit in stable).

Solution:

The original semantics for the default value in 2) can be applied if the
parameter is not set (ie, default behavior).

This still keeps the intended function in 1) and 2) if set, and that
commit's intended improvement in 1) if max_loop=0.

Before 85c50197716c:
- default: 1) CONFIG devices 2) no limit
- max_loop=0: 1) CONFIG devices 2) no limit
- max_loop=X: 1) X devices 2) X limit

After 85c50197716c:
- default: 1) CONFIG devices 2) CONFIG limit (*)
- max_loop=0: 1) 0 devices (*) 2) no limit
- max_loop=X: 1) X devices 2) X limit

This commit:
- default: 1) CONFIG devices 2) no limit (*)
- max_loop=0: 1) 0 devices 2) no limit
- max_loop=X: 1) X devices 2) X limit

Future:

The issue/regression from that commit only affects code under the
CONFIG_BLOCK_LEGACY_AUTOLOAD deprecation guard, thus the fix too is
contained under it.

Once that deprecated functionality/code is removed, the purpose 2) of
max_loop (hard limit) is no longer in use, so the module parameter
description can be changed then.
