Allow splice(2) to work when both the input and the output is a pipe.
Based on the impementation of the tee(2) syscall, but instead of
duplicating the buffer references move the buffers from the input pipe
to the output pipe.
Moving the whole buffer only succeeds if the full length of the buffer
is spliced. Otherwise duplicate the buffer, just like tee(2), set the
length of the output buffer and advance the offset on the input
buffer.
Since splice is operating on two pipes, special care needs to be taken
with locking to prevent AN ABBA deadlock. Again this is done
similarly to the tee(2) syscall, first preparing the input and output
pipes so there's data to consume and space for that data, and then
doing the move operation while holding both locks.
If other processes are doing I/O on the same pipes parallel to the
splice, then by the time both inodes are locked there might be no
buffers left to move, or no space to move them to. In this case retry
the whole operation, including the preparation phase. This could lead
to starvation, but I'm not sure if that's serious enough to worry
about.

Till now block layer allowed two separate modes of request execution.
A request is always acquired from the request queue via
elv_next_request(). After that, drivers are free to either dequeue it
or process it without dequeueing. Dequeue allows elv_next_request()
to return the next request so that multiple requests can be in flight.
Executing requests without dequeueing has its merits mostly in
allowing drivers for simpler devices which can't do sg to deal with
segments only without considering request boundary. However, the
benefit this brings is dubious and declining while the cost of the API
ambiguity is increasing. Segment based drivers are usually for very
old or limited devices and as converting to dequeueing model isn't
difficult, it doesn't justify the API overhead it puts on block layer
and its more modern users.
Previous patches converted all block low level drivers to dequeueing
model. This patch completes the API transition by...
* renaming elv_next_request() to blk_peek_request()
* renaming blkdev_dequeue_request() to blk_start_request()
* adding blk_fetch_request() which is combination of peek and start
* disallowing completion of queued (not started) requests
* applying new API to all LLDs
Renamings are for consistency and to break out of tree code so that
it's apparent that out of tree drivers need updating.

ide generally has single request in flight and tracks it using
hwif->rq and all state handlers follow the following convention.
* ide_started is returned if the request is in flight.
* ide_stopped is returned if the queue needs to be restarted. The
request might or might not have been processed fully or partially.
* hwif->rq is set to NULL, when an issued request completes.
So, dequeueing model can be implemented by dequeueing after fetch,
requeueing if hwif->rq isn't NULL on ide_stopped return and doing
about the same thing on completion / port unlock paths. These changes
can be made in ide-io proper.
In addition to the above main changes, the following updates are
necessary.
* ide-cd shouldn't dequeue a request when issuing REQUEST SENSE for it
as the request is already dequeued.
* ide-atapi uses request queue as stack when issuing REQUEST SENSE to
put the REQUEST SENSE in front of the failed request. This now
needs to be done using requeueing.

struct request has had a few different ways to represent some
properties of a request. ->hard_* represent block layer's view of the
request progress (completion cursor) and the ones without the prefix
are supposed to represent the issue cursor and allowed to be updated
as necessary by the low level drivers. The thing is that as block
layer supports partial completion, the two cursors really aren't
necessary and only cause confusion. In addition, manual management of
request detail from low level drivers is cumbersome and error-prone at
the very least.
Another interesting duplicate fields are rq->[hard_]nr_sectors and
rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors against rq->data_len and
rq->bio->bi_size. This is more convoluted than the hard_ case.
rq->[hard_]nr_sectors are initialized for requests with bio but
blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for !pc requests. rq->data_len is
initialized for all request but blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for pc
requests. This causes good amount of confusion throughout block layer
and its drivers and determining the request length has been a bit of
black magic which may or may not work depending on circumstances and
what the specific LLD is actually doing.
rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors represent the number of sectors in
the contiguous data area at the front. This is mainly used by drivers
which transfers data by walking request segment-by-segment. This
value always equals rq->bio->bi_size >> 9. However, data length for
pc requests may not be multiple of 512 bytes and using this field
becomes a bit confusing.
In general, having multiple fields to represent the same property
leads only to confusion and subtle bugs. With recent block low level
driver cleanups, no driver is accessing or manipulating these
duplicate fields directly. Drop all the duplicates. Now rq->sector
means the current sector, rq->data_len the current total length and
rq->bio->bi_size the current segment length. Everything else is
defined in terms of these three and available only through accessors.
* blk_recalc_rq_sectors() is collapsed into blk_update_request() and
now handles pc and fs requests equally other than rq->sector update.
This means that now pc requests can use partial completion too (no
in-kernel user yet tho).
* bio_cur_sectors() is replaced with bio_cur_bytes() as block layer
now uses byte count as the primary data length.
* blk_rq_pos() is now guranteed to be always correct. In-block users
converted.
* blk_rq_bytes() is now guaranteed to be always valid as is
blk_rq_sectors(). In-block users converted.
* blk_rq_sectors() is now guaranteed to equal blk_rq_bytes() >> 9.
More convenient one is used.
* blk_rq_bytes() and blk_rq_cur_bytes() are now inlined and take const
pointer to request.

rq->data_len served two purposes - the length of data buffer on issue
and the residual count on completion. This duality creates some
headaches.
First of all, block layer and low level drivers can't really determine
what rq->data_len contains while a request is executing. It could be
the total request length or it coulde be anything else one of the
lower layers is using to keep track of residual count. This
complicates things because blk_rq_bytes() and thus
[__]blk_end_request_all() relies on rq->data_len for PC commands.
Drivers which want to report residual count should first cache the
total request length, update rq->data_len and then complete the
request with the cached data length.
Secondly, it makes requests default to reporting full residual count,
ie. reporting that no data transfer occurred. The residual count is
an exception not the norm; however, the driver should clear
rq->data_len to zero to signify the normal cases while leaving it
alone means no data transfer occurred at all. This reverse default
behavior complicates code unnecessarily and renders block PC on some
drivers (ide-tape/floppy) unuseable.
This patch adds rq->resid_len which is used only for residual count.
While at it, remove now unnecessasry blk_rq_bytes() caching in
ide_pc_intr() as rq->data_len is not changed anymore.

There's no reason to clear rq->sector and nr_sectors after calling
blk_rq_init(). They're guaranteed to be clear. Drop unnecessary
clearing.

Add local copies of ata_id_string() and ata_id_c_string() to mg_disk
so there is no need for the driver to depend on ATA and SCSI.
[ Impact: break dependency on libata by copying ata id string functions ]

include/linux/mg_disk.h is used only by drivers/block/mg_disk.c. No
reason to put it in a separate header. Fold it into mg_disk.c.

swim curiously tries to update request parameters before calling
__blk_end_request() when __blk_end_request() will do it anyway and
unnecessarily checks whether current_nr_sectors is zero right after
fetching.
Drop unnecessary stuff and use standard block layer mechanisms.

swim3 curiously tries to update request parameters before calling
__blk_end_request() when __blk_end_request() will do it anyway, and it
updates request for partial completion manually instead of using
blk_update_request(). Also, it does some spurious checks on rq such
as testing whether rq->sector is negative or current_nr_sectors is
zero right after fetching.
Drop unnecessary stuff and use standard block layer mechanisms.

hd read/write_intr() functions manually manipulate request to
incrementally complete it, which block layer already supports. Simply
use block layer completion routines instead of manual partial
completion.
While at it, clear unnecessary elv_next_request() check at the tail of
read_intr(). This also makes read and write_intr() more consistent.

ubd curiously updates rq->sector while issuing the request in multiple
pieces. Don't do it and simply use local copy of sector.

ubd had its own block request partial completion mechanism, which is
unnecessary as block layer already does it. Kill ubd_end_request()
and ubd_finish() and replace them with direct call to
blk_end_request().

vdc_end_request() is a thin silly wrapper on top of

ps3disk_interrupt() always completes requests fully but it uses
rq->hard_cur_sectors for FLUSH requests for some reason. Drop them
and simply use __blk_end_request_all().
