This is the driver part of userspace block driver(ublk driver), the other
part is userspace daemon part(ublksrv)[1].
The two parts communicate by io_uring's IORING_OP_URING_CMD with one
shared cmd buffer for storing io command, and the buffer is read only for
ublksrv, each io command is indexed by io request tag directly, and is
written by ublk driver.
For example, when one READ io request is submitted to ublk block driver,
ublk driver stores the io command into cmd buffer first, then completes
one IORING_OP_URING_CMD for notifying ublksrv, and the URING_CMD is issued
to ublk driver beforehand by ublksrv for getting notification of any new
io request, and each URING_CMD is associated with one io request by tag.
After ublksrv gets the io command, it translates and handles the ublk io
request, such as, for the ublk-loop target, ublksrv translates the request
into same request on another file or disk, like the kernel loop block
driver. In ublksrv's implementation, the io is still handled by io_uring,
and share same ring with IORING_OP_URING_CMD command. When the target io
request is done, the same IORING_OP_URING_CMD is issued to ublk driver for
both committing io request result and getting future notification of new
io request.
Another thing done by ublk driver is to copy data between kernel io
request and ublksrv's io buffer:
1) before ubsrv handles WRITE request, copy the request's data into
ublksrv's userspace io buffer, so that ublksrv can handle the write
request
2) after ubsrv handles READ request, copy ublksrv's userspace io buffer
into this READ request, then ublk driver can complete the READ request
Zero copy may be switched if mm is ready to support it.
ublk driver doesn't handle any logic of the specific user space driver,
so it is small/simple enough.

Use atomic_try_cmpxchg instead of atomic_cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old
in blkcg_unuse_delay, blkcg_set_delay and blkcg_clear_delay and
atomic64_try_cmpxchg in blkcg_scale_delay. x86 CMPXCHG instruction
returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg
(and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg).
Also, atomic_try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when
cmpxchg fails, enabling further code simplifications.
No functional change intended.

blk_mq_debugfs_register_hctx() can be called by blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues
when gendisk isn't added yet, such as nvme tcp.
Fixes the warning of 'debugfs: Directory 'hctx0' with parent '/' already present!'
which can be observed reliably when running blktests nvme/005.
Fixes: 6cfc0081b0 ("blk-mq: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions")

The SCSI core code does not currently support reserved commands. As such,
requests which time-out would never be reserved, and scsi_timeout()
'reserved' arg should never be set.
Remove handling for reserved requests, drop the wrapper scsi_timeout()
as it now just calls scsi_times_out() always, and finally rename
scsi_times_out() -> scsi_timeout() to match the blk_mq_ops method name.

Set the queue dying flag and call blk_mq_exit_queue from del_gendisk for
all disks that do not have separately allocated queues, and thus remove
the need to call blk_cleanup_queue for them.
Rename blk_cleanup_disk to blk_mq_destroy_queue to make it clear that
this function is intended only for separately allocated blk-mq queues.
This saves an extra queue freeze for devices without a separately
allocated queue.

Currently, IO priority set in task's IO context is not reflected in the
bio->bi_ioprio for most IO (only io_uring and direct IO set it). This
results in odd results where process is submitting some bios with one
priority and other bios with a different (unset) priority and due to
differing priorities bios cannot be merged. Make sure bio->bi_ioprio is
always set on bio submission.

Convert blk-ioprio handling from a rqos policy to a direct call from
blk_mq_submit_bio(). Firstly, blk-ioprio is not much of a rqos policy
anyway, it just needs a hook in bio submission path to set the bio's IO
priority. Secondly, the rqos .track hook gets actually called too late
for blk-ioprio purposes and introducing a special rqos hook just for
blk-ioprio looks even weirder.
