Instead of lumping emulated zones together with random zones we
should be handling them as separate 'cache' zones. This improves

Also add additional allocation flags, to separate the type (cache,
random, or sequential) from the purpose (eg reclaim).
Also switch the allocation policy to not use random zones as buffer

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

SCSI LUN passthrough code such as qemu's "scsi-block" device model
pass every IO to the host via SG_IO ioctls. Currently, dm-multipath
calls choose_pgpath() only in the block IO code path, not in the ioctl
code path (unless current_pgpath is NULL). This has the effect that no
path switching and thus no load balancing is done for SCSI-passthrough
IO, unless the active path fails.
Fix this by using the same logic in multipath_prepare_ioctl() as in
multipath_clone_and_map().
Note: The allegedly best path selection algorithm, service-time,
still wouldn't work perfectly, because the io size of the current
request is always set to 0. Changing that for the IO passthrough
case would require the ioctl cmd and arg to be passed to dm's

We must have some way of letting a storage device driver know what
encryption context it should use for en/decrypting a request. However,
it's the upper layers (like the filesystem/fscrypt) that know about and
manages encryption contexts. As such, when the upper layer submits a bio
to the block layer, and this bio eventually reaches a device driver with
support for inline encryption, the device driver will need to have been
told the encryption context for that bio.
We want to communicate the encryption context from the upper layer to the
storage device along with the bio, when the bio is submitted to the block
layer. To do this, we add a struct bio_crypt_ctx to struct bio, which can
represent an encryption context (note that we can't use the bi_private
field in struct bio to do this because that field does not function to pass
information across layers in the storage stack). We also introduce various
functions to manipulate the bio_crypt_ctx and make the bio/request merging
logic aware of the bio_crypt_ctx.
We also make changes to blk-mq to make it handle bios with encryption
contexts. blk-mq can merge many bios into the same request. These bios need
to have contiguous data unit numbers (the necessary changes to blk-merge
are also made to ensure this) - as such, it suffices to keep the data unit
number of just the first bio, since that's all a storage driver needs to
infer the data unit number to use for each data block in each bio in a
request. blk-mq keeps track of the encryption context to be used for all
the bios in a request with the request's rq_crypt_ctx. When the first bio
is added to an empty request, blk-mq will program the encryption context
of that bio into the request_queue's keyslot manager, and store the
returned keyslot in the request's rq_crypt_ctx. All the functions to
operate on encryption contexts are in blk-crypto.c.
Upper layers only need to call bio_crypt_set_ctx with the encryption key,
algorithm and data_unit_num; they don't have to worry about getting a
keyslot for each encryption context, as blk-mq/blk-crypto handles that.
Blk-crypto also makes it possible for request-based layered devices like
dm-rq to make use of inline encryption hardware by cloning the
rq_crypt_ctx and programming a keyslot in the new request_queue when
necessary.
Note that any user of the block layer can submit bios with an
encryption context, such as filesystems, device-mapper targets, etc.

When using RAID1 and write-behind, md can deadlock when errors occur. With
write-behind, r1bio structs can be accounted by raid1 as queued but not
counted as pending. The pending count is dropped when the original bio is
returned complete but write-behind for the r1bio may still be active.
This breaks the accounting used in some conditions to know when the raid1
md device has reached an idle state. It can result in calls to
freeze_array deadlocking. freeze_array will never complete from a negative
"unqueued" value being calculated due to a queued count larger than the
pending count.
To properly account for write-behind, move the call to allow_barrier from
call_bio_endio to raid_end_bio_io. When using write-behind, md can call
call_bio_endio before all write-behind I/O is complete. Using
raid_end_bio_io for the point to call allow_barrier will release the
pending count at a point where all I/O for an r1bio, even write-behind, is
done.

In raid5.c:resize_chunk(), scribble_alloc() is called with GFP_NOIO
flag, then it is sent into kvmalloc_array() inside scribble_alloc().
The problem is kvmalloc_array() eventually calls kvmalloc_node() which
does not accept non GFP_KERNEL compatible flag like GFP_NOIO, then
kmalloc_node() is called indeed to allocate physically continuous
pages. When system memory is under heavy pressure, and the requesting
size is large, there is high probability that allocating continueous
pages will fail.
But simply using GFP_KERNEL flag to call kvmalloc_array() is also
progblematic. In the code path where scribble_alloc() is called, the
raid array is suspended, if kvmalloc_node() triggers memory reclaim I/Os
and such I/Os go back to the suspend raid array, deadlock will happen.
What is desired here is to allocate non-physically (a.k.a virtually)
continuous pages and avoid memory reclaim I/Os. Michal Hocko suggests
to use the mmealloc sceope APIs to restrict memory reclaim I/O in
allocating context, specifically to call memalloc_noio_save() when
suspend the raid array and to call memalloc_noio_restore() when
resume the raid array.
This patch adds the memalloc scope APIs in mddev_suspend() and
mddev_resume(), to restrict memory reclaim I/Os during the raid array
is suspended. The benifit of adding the memalloc scope API in the
unified entry point mddev_suspend()/mddev_resume() is, no matter which
md raid array type (personality), we are sure the deadlock by recursive
memory reclaim I/O won't happen on the suspending context.
Please notice that the memalloc scope APIs only take effect on the raid
array suspending context, if the memory allocation is from another new
created kthread after raid array suspended, the recursive memory reclaim
I/Os won't be restricted. The mddev_suspend()/mddev_resume() entries are
used for the critical section where the raid metadata is modifying,
creating a kthread to allocate memory inside the critical section is
queer and very probably being buggy.
