Merge branch 'for-3.11/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Pull block IO driver bits from Jens Axboe:
"As I mentioned in the core block pull request, due to real life
circumstances the driver pull request would be late. Now it looks
like -rc2 late... On the plus side, apart form the rsxx update, these
are all things that I could argue could go in later in the cycle as
they are fixes and not features. So even though things are late, it's
not ALL bad.

The pull request contains:

- Updates to bcache, all bug fixes, from Kent.

- A pile of drbd bug fixes (no big features this time!).

- xen blk front/back fixes.

- rsxx driver updates, some of them deferred form 3.10. So should be
well cooked by now"

bcache: Journal replay fix

The journal replay code starts by finding something that looks like a
valid journal entry, then it does a binary search over the unchecked
region of the journal for the journal entries with the highest sequence
numbers.

Trouble is, the logic was wrong - journal_read_bucket() returns true if
it found journal entries we need, but if the range of journal entries
we're looking for loops around the end of the journal - in that case
journal_read_bucket() could return true when it hadn't found the highest
sequence number we'd seen yet, and in that case the binary search did
the wrong thing. Whoops.

bcache: Fix/revamp tracepoints

The tracepoints were reworked to be more sensible, and fixed a null
pointer deref in one of the tracepoints.

Converted some of the pr_debug()s to tracepoints - this is partly a
performance optimization; it used to be that with DEBUG or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG pr_debug() was an empty macro; but at some point it
was changed to an empty inline function.

Some of the pr_debug() statements had rather expensive function calls as
part of the arguments, so this code was getting run unnecessarily even
on non debug kernels - in some fast paths, too.

bcache: Refactor btree io

The most significant change is that btree reads are now done
synchronously, instead of asynchronously and doing the post read stuff
from a workqueue.

This was originally done because we can't block on IO under
generic_make_request(). But - we already have a mechanism to punt cache
lookups to workqueue if needed, so if we just use that we don't have to
deal with the complexity of doing things asynchronously.

The main benefit is this makes the locking situation saner; we can hold
our write lock on the btree node until we're finished reading it, and we
don't need that btree_node_read_done() flag anymore.

Also, for writes, btree_write() was broken out into btree_node_write()
and btree_leaf_dirty() - the old code with the boolean argument was dumb
and confusing.

The prio_blocked mechanism was improved a bit too, now the only counter
is in struct btree_write, we don't mess with transfering a count from
struct btree anymore.

This required changing garbage collection to block prios at the start
and unblock when it finishes, which is cleaner than what it was doing
anyways (the old code had mostly the same effect, but was doing it in a
convoluted way)

And the btree iter btree_node_read_done() uses was converted to a real
mempool.

Backmerge Linux 3.10-rc2 since the various (rather trivial) conflicts
grew a bit out of hand. intel_dp.c has the only real functional
conflict since the logic changed while dev_priv->edp.bpp was moved
around.

Also squash in a whitespace fixup from Ben Widawsky for
i915_gem_gtt.c, git seems to do something pretty strange in there
(which I don't fully understand tbh).
