Pull block-related fixes from Jens Axboe:
- Improvements to the buffered and direct write IO plugging from
Fengguang.
- Abstract out the mapping of a bio in a request, and use that to
provide a blk_bio_map_sg() helper. Useful for mapping just a bio
instead of a full request.
- Regression fix from Hugh, fixing up a patch that went into the
previous release cycle (and marked stable, too) attempting to prevent
a loop in __getblk_slow().
- Updates to discard requests, fixing up the sizing and how we align
them. Also a change to disallow merging of discard requests, since
that doesn't really work properly yet.
- A few drbd fixes.
- Documentation updates.

Requests of an acked epoch are stored on the barrier_acked_requests list. In
case the private bio of such a request completes while IO on the drbd device
is suspended [req_mod(completed_ok)] then the request stays there.
When thawing IO because the fence_peer handler returned, then we use
tl_clear() to apply the connection_lost_while_pending event to all requests
on the transfer-log and the barrier_acked_requests list.
Up to now the connection_lost_while_pending event was not applied
on requests on the barrier_acked_requests list. Fixed that.
I.e. now the connection_lost_while_pending and resend events are
applied to requests on the barrier_acked_requests list. For that
it is necessary that the resend event finishes (local only)
READS correctly.

In case we want to hard-reset from the local-io-error handler,
we need to call it before notifying the peer or aborting local IO.
Otherwise the peer will advance its data generation UUIDs even
if secondary.
This way, local io error looks like a "regular" node crash,
which reduces the number of different failure cases.
This may be useful in a bigger picture where crashed or otherwise
"misbehaving" nodes are automatically re-deployed.

Fix asserts like
block drbd0: in got_BlockAck:4634: rs_pending_cnt = -35 < 0 !
We reset the resync lru cache and related information (rs_pending_cnt),
once we successfully finished a resync or online verify, or if the
replication connection is lost.
We also need to reset it if a resync or online verify is aborted
because a lower level disk failed.
In that case the replication link is still established,
and we may still have packets queued in the network buffers
which want to touch rs_pending_cnt.
We do not have any synchronization mechanism to know for sure when all
such pending resync related packets have been drained.
To avoid this counter to go negative (and violate the ASSERT that it
will always be >= 0), just do not reset it when we lose a disk.
It is good enough to make sure it is re-initialized before the next
resync can start: reset it when we re-attach a disk.

Aborting local requests (not waiting for completion from the lower level
disk) is dangerous: if the master bio has been completed to upper
layers, data pages may be re-used for other things already.
If local IO is still pending and later completes,
this may cause crashes or corrupt unrelated data.
Only abort local IO if explicitly requested.
Intended use case is a lower level device that turned into a tarpit,
not completing io requests, not even doing error completion.

"FIXME asender in bm_change_bits_to,

If a resync or verify is finished (or aborted), a full bitmap writeout

DRBD can freeze IO, due to fencing policy (fencing resource-and-stonith),
or because we lost access to data (on-no-data-accessible suspend-io).
Resuming from there (re-connect, or re-attach, or explicit admin
intervention) should "just work".
Unfortunately, if the re-attach/re-connect did not happen within
the timeout, since the commit
drbd: Implemented real timeout checking for request processing time
if so configured, the request_timer_fn() would timeout and
detach/disconnect virtually immediately.
This change tracks the most recent attach and connect, and does not

Changes to the role and disk state should be delayed or rejected
while we establish a connection.
This is necessary, since the peer will base its resync decision
on the UUIDs and the state we sent in the drbd_connect() function.

sending state and UUIDs and before the state changes to C_WF_CONNECTION.

We assumed only bios with bi_idx == 0 would end up
in drbd_make_request().
That is wrong.
At least device mapper, in __clone_and_map(), may submit
clones only covering a partial bio, but sharing
the original bvec, by adjusting bi_idx and relevant
other bio members of the clone.
We used __bio_for_each_segment() in various places,
even though that is documented as
* drivers should not use the __ version unless they _really_ want to
* run through the entire bio and not just pending pieces
Impact: we would send the full bio bvec, even for the clone
with bi_idx > 0, which will cause data corruption on the
peer (because we submit wrong data at the clone offset),
and will cause a DRBD protocol error, disconnect/reconnect
and resync (thus fixing the corruption),
because the next package header would be expected right
in the middle of the sent data, causing DRBD magic mismatch.
Fix: drop the assert, and use bio_for_each_segment()
instead of the __ version.

If the backing device is already frozen during attach, we failed
to recognize that. The current disk-timeout code works on top
of the drbd_request objects. During attach we do not allow IO
and therefore never generate a drbd_request object but block
before that in drbd_make_request().
This patch adds the timeout to all drbd_md_sync_page_io().
Before this patch we used to go from D_ATTACHING directly
to D_DISKLESS if IO failed during attach. We can no longer
do this since we have to stay in D_FAILED until all IO
ops issued to the backing device returned.

If the asender thread, or request_timer_fn(), or some other part of
the code, decided to drop the connection (because of timeout or other),
but the receiver just now was processing a P_STATE packet, there was a
chance that receive_state() would do a hard state change
"re-establishing" an already failed connection without additional handshake.
Log excerpt:
Remote failed to finish a request within ko-count * timeout
peer( Secondary -> Unknown ) conn( Connected -> Timeout ) pdsk( UpToDate -> DUnknown )
asender terminated
...
peer( Unknown -> Secondary ) conn( Timeout -> Connected ) pdsk( DUnknown -> UpToDate ) peer_isp( 0 -> 1 )
...
Connection closed
peer( Secondary -> Unknown ) conn( Connected -> Unconnected ) pdsk( UpToDate -> DUnknown ) peer_isp( 1 -> 0 )
receiver terminated
Impact:
while the connection state is erroneously "Connected",
requests may be queued and even sent,
which would never be acknowledged,
and may have been missed by the cleanup.
These requests would never be completed.
The next drbd_suspend_io() will then lock up,
waiting forever for these requests to complete.
Fixed in several code paths:
Make sure the connection state is NetworkFailure or worse
before starting the cleanup in drbd_disconnect().
This should make sure the cleanup won't miss any requests.
Disallow receive_state() to "upgrade" the connection state
from an error state. This will make sure the "illegal" state
transition won't happen.
For all connection failure states,
relax the safe-guard in sanitize_state() again
to silently mask out those state changes
(e.g. Timeout -> Connected becomes Timeout -> Timeout).

DRBD state changes schedule after_state_ch() actions to a worker thread,
which decides on the old and new states of that change, whether to send
an informational state update packet (P_STATE) to the peer.
If it decides to drbd_send_state(), it would however always send the
_curent_ state, which, if a second state change happens before the
after_state_ch() of the first ran, may "fast-forward" the peer's view
about this node. In most cases that is harmless, but sometimes this can
confuse DRBD, for example into not actually starting a necessary resync
if you do a very tight detach/attach loop on a Connected Secondary.
Fix this by always sending the "new" state of the respective state
transition which scheduled this after_state_ch() work.

If we get into the C_BROKEN_PIPE cstate once, the state engine set the
thi->t_state of the receiver thread to restarting. But with the while loop
in drbdd_init() a new connection gets established. After the call into
drbdd() returns immediately since the thi->t_state is not RUNNING. The
restart of drbd_init() then resets thi->t_state to RUNNING.
I.e. after entering C_BROKEN_PIPE once, the next successful established
connection gets wasted.
The two parts of the fix:
* Do not cause the thread to restart if we detect the issue
with the sockets while we are in C_WF_CONNECTION.
* Make sure that all actions that would have set us to C_BROKEN_PIPE
happen before the state change to C_WF_REPORT_PARAMS.

The old (optimistic) implementation could shrink the bio size
on an primary device.
Shrinking the bio size on a primary device is bad. Since there
we might get BIOs with the old (bigger) size shortly after
we published the new size.
The new implementation is more conservative, and eventually
increases the max_bio_size on a primary device (which is valid).
It does so, when it knows the local limit AND the remote limit.
We cache the last seen max_bio_size of the peer in the meta
data, and rely on that, to make the operation of single

When we receive a barrier ack, we walk the ring list of drbd requests

If resync was aborted because of connection failure, we should not
