block: Block layer data integrity support

Browse Source 
Some block devices support verifying the integrity of requests by way
of checksums or other protection information that is submitted along
with the I/O.

This patch implements support for generating and verifying integrity
metadata, as well as correctly merging, splitting and cloning bios and
requests that have this extra information attached.

See Documentation/block/data-integrity.txt for more information.
