5f01520415 dm: merge io_pool and tio_pool
This patch merges io_pool and tio_pool into io_pool and cleans up
related functions.

Though device-mapper used to have 2 pools of objects for each dm device,
the use of bioset frontbad for per-bio data has shrunk the number of
pools to 1 for both bio-based and request-based device types.
(See c0820cf5 "dm: introduce per_bio_data" and
 94818742 "dm: Use bioset's front_pad for dm_rq_clone_bio_info")

So dm no longer has to maintain 2 different pointers.

No functional changes.

87eb5b21d9 dm: fix limits initialization when there are no data devices
dm_calculate_queue_limits will first reset the provided limits to
defaults using blk_set_stacking_limits; whereby defeating the purpose of
retaining the original live table's limits -- as was intended via commit
3ae7065616 ("dm: retain table limits when
swapping to new table with no devices").

Fix this improper limits initialization (in the no data devices case) by
avoiding the call to dm_calculate_queue_limits.

Rename functions involved in splitting and cloning bios.

The sequence of functions is now:
  (1) __split_and_process* - entry point that selects the processing strategy
  (2) __send* - prepare the details for each bio needed and loop through them
  (3) __clone_and_map* - creates a clone and maps it

fd7c092e71 dm: fix truncated status strings
Avoid returning a truncated table or status string instead of setting
the DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG when the last target of a table fills the
buffer.

When processing a table or status request, the function retrieve_status
calls ti->type->status. If ti->type->status returns non-zero,
retrieve_status assumes that the buffer overflowed and sets
DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG.

However, targets don't return non-zero values from their status method
on overflow. Most targets returns always zero.

If a buffer overflow happens in a target that is not the last in the
table, it gets noticed during the next iteration of the loop in
retrieve_status; but if a buffer overflow happens in the last target, it
goes unnoticed and erroneously truncated data is returned.

In the current code, the targets behave in the following way:
* dm-crypt returns -ENOMEM if there is not enough space to store the
  key, but it returns 0 on all other overflows.
* dm-thin returns errors from the status method if a disk error happened.
  This is incorrect because retrieve_status doesn't check the error
  code, it assumes that all non-zero values mean buffer overflow.
* all the other targets always return 0.

This patch changes the ti->type->status function to return void (because
most targets don't use the return code). Overflow is detected in
retrieve_status: if the status method fills up the remaining space
completely, it is assumed that buffer overflow happened.

The regression was introduced by the change
c0820cf5 "dm: introduce per_bio_data", where dm started to replace
bioset during table replacement.
For bio-based dm, it is good because clone bios do not exist during the
table replacement.
For request-based dm, however, (not-yet-mapped) clone bios may stay in
request queue and survive during the table replacement.
So freeing the old bioset could cause the oops in bio_put().

Since the size of front_pad may change only with bio-based dm,
it is not necessary to replace bioset for request-based dm.

Pull nfsd changes from J Bruce Fields:
 "Miscellaneous bugfixes, plus:

   - An overhaul of the DRC cache by Jeff Layton.  The main effect is
     just to make it larger.  This decreases the chances of intermittent
     errors especially in the UDP case.  But we'll need to watch for any
     reports of performance regressions.

   - Containerized nfsd: with some limitations, we now support
     per-container nfs-service, thanks to extensive work from Stanislav
     Kinsbursky over the last year."

Some notes about conflicts, since there were *two* non-data semantic
conflicts here:

 - idr_remove_all() had been added by a memory leak fix, but has since
   become deprecated since idr_destroy() does it for us now.

 - xs_local_connect() had been added by this branch to make AF_LOCAL
   connections be synchronous, but in the meantime Trond had changed the
   calling convention in order to avoid a RCU dereference.

There were a couple of more obvious actual source-level conflicts due to
the hlist traversal changes and one just due to code changes next to
each other, but those were trivial.

 "A few groups of patches here.  Alex has been hard at work improving

  There are a few changes to the data layout.  Jim Schutt's patch fixes
  some non-ideal CRUSH behavior, and a set of patches from me updates
  the client to speak a newer version of the protocol and implement an
  improved hashing strategy across storage nodes (when the server side
  supports it too).

  A pair of patches from Sam Lang fix the atomicity of open+create
  operations.  Several patches from Yan, Zheng fix various mds/client
  issues that turned up during multi-mds torture tests.

  A final set of patches expose file layouts via virtual xattrs, and
  allow the policies to be set on directories via xattrs as well
  (avoiding the awkward ioctl interface and providing a consistent
  interface for both kernel mount and ceph-fuse users)."

Merge tag 'scsi-misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi

Pull first round of SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
 "The patch set is mostly driver updates (bnx2fc, ipr, lpfc, qla4) and a
  few bug fixes"

Pull delayed because google hates James, and sneakily considers his pull
requests spam. Why, google, why?

dc107402ae SUNRPC: make AF_LOCAL connect synchronous
It doesn't appear that anyone actually needs to connect asynchronously.

Also, using a workqueue for the connect means we lose the namespace
information from the original process.  This is a problem since there's
no way to explicitly pass in a filesystem namespace for resolution of an
AF_LOCAL address.

b67bfe0d42 hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

1e142b29e2 kcmp: make it depend on CHECKPOINT_RESTORE
Since kcmp syscall has been implemented (initially on x86 architecture) a
number of other archs wire it up as well: xtensa, sparc, sh, s390, mips,
microblaze, m68k (not taking into account those who uses
<asm-generic/unistd.h> for syscall numbers definitions).

But the Makefile, which turns kcmp.o generation on still depends on former
config-x86.  Thus get rid of this limitation and make kcmp.o depend on
CHECKPOINT_RESTORE option.

Documentation/blockdev/nbd.txt contained some documentation which was
horribly outdated and probably still dates from the original patch that
added NBD support to the kernel.

This patch removes the useless and outdated bits.  The tools on nbd.sf.net
are fully documented in manpages, which is where documentation for the
non-kernel bits should live.

Additionally, add a reference to the MAINTAINERS file for the nbd-general
mailinglist that is used for discussion of the userland tools and the
kernel module already.

Pass the read-only flag to set_device_ro, so that it will be visible to
the block layer and in sysfs.
