This device-mapper target creates a read-only device that transparently
validates the data on one underlying device against a pre-generated tree
of cryptographic checksums stored on a second device.
Two checksum device formats are supported: version 0 which is already
shipping in Chromium OS and version 1 which incorporates some
improvements.

Support discards in the thin target.
On discard the corresponding mapping(s) are removed from the thin
device. If the associated block(s) are no longer shared the discard
is passed to the underlying device.
All bios other than discards now have an associated deferred_entry
that is saved to the 'all_io_entry' in endio_hook. When non-discard
IO completes and associated mappings are quiesced any discards that
were deferred, via ds_add_work() in process_discard(), will be queued
for processing by the worker thread.

This patch contains the ground work needed for dm-thin to support discard.
- Adds endio function that replaces shared_read_endio.
- Introduce an explicit 'quiesced' flag into the new_mapping structure.
Before, this was implicitly indicated by m->list being empty.
- The map_info->ptr remains constant for the duration of a bio's trip
through the thin target. Make it easier to reason about it.

Support the use of an external _read only_ device as an origin for a thin
device.
Any read to an unprovisioned area of the thin device will be passed
through to the origin. Writes trigger allocation of new blocks as
usual.
One possible use case for this would be VM hosts that want to run
guests on thinly-provisioned volumes but have the base image on another
device (possibly shared between many VMs).

The thin metadata format can only make use of a device that is <=
THIN_METADATA_MAX_SECTORS (currently 15.9375 GB). Therefore, there is no
practical benefit to using a larger device.
However, it may be that other factors impose a certain granularity for
the space that is allocated to a device (E.g. lvm2 can impose a coarse
granularity through the use of large, >= 1 GB, physical extents).
Rather than reject a larger metadata device, during thin-pool device
construction, switch to allowing it but issue a warning if a device
larger than THIN_METADATA_MAX_SECTORS_WARNING (16 GB) is
provided. Any space over 15.9375 GB will not be used.

Save space by removing entries from the space map ref_count tree if
they're no longer needed.
Ref counts are stored in two places: a bitmap if the ref_count is
below 3, or a btree of uint32_t if 3 or above.
When a ref_count that was above 3 drops below we can remove it from
the tree and save some metadata space. This removal was commented out
before because I was unsure why this was causing under-populated btree
nodes. Earlier patches have fixed this issue.

Commit unwritten data every second to prevent too much building up.
Released blocks don't become available until after the next commit
(for crash resilience). Prior to this patch commits were only
triggered by a message to the target or a REQ_{FLUSH,FUA} bio. This
allowed far too big a position to build up.
The interval is hard-coded to 1 second. This is a sensible setting.
I'm not making this user configurable, since there isn't much to be
gained by tweaking this - and a lot lost by setting it far too high.

Device mapper uses sscanf to convert arguments to numbers. The problem is that
the way we use it ignores additional unmatched characters in the scanned string.
For example, this `if (sscanf(string, "%d", &number) == 1)' will match a number,
but also it will match number with some garbage appended, like "123abc".
As a result, device mapper accepts garbage after some numbers. For example
the command `dmsetup create vg1-new --table "0 16384 linear 254:1bla 34816bla"'
will pass without an error.
This patch fixes all sscanf uses in device mapper. It appends "%c" with
a pointer to a dummy character variable to every sscanf statement.
The construct `if (sscanf(string, "%d%c", &number, &dummy) == 1)' succeeds
only if string is a null-terminated number (optionally preceded by some
whitespace characters). If there is some character appended after the number,
sscanf matches "%c", writes the character to the dummy variable and returns 2.
We check the return value for 1 and consequently reject numbers with some
garbage appended.

The dm-raid code currently fails to create a RAID array if any of the
superblocks cannot be read. This was an oversight as there is already
code to handle this case if the values ('- -') were provided for the
failed array position.
With this patch, if a superblock cannot be read, the array position's
fields are initialized as though '- -' was set in the table. That is,
the device is failed and the position should not be used, but if there
is sufficient redundancy, the array should still be activated.

Fix a harmless typo.
The root is a chunk of data that gets written to the superblock. This
data is used to recreate the space map when opening a metadata area.
We have two space maps; one tracking space on the metadata device and
one of the data device. Both of these use the same format for their
root, so this typo was harmless.

When we remove an entry from a node we sometimes rebalance with it's
two neighbours. This wasn't being done correctly; in some cases
entries have to move all the way from the right neighbour to the left
neighbour, or vice versa. This patch pretty much re-writes the
balancing code to fix it.
This code is barely used currently; only when you delete a thin
device, and then only if you have hundreds of them in the same pool.
Once we have discard support, which removes mappings, this will be used
much more heavily.

Avoid using the bi_next field for the holder of a cell when deferring
bios because a stacked device below might change it. Store the
holder in a new field in struct cell instead.
When a cell is created, the bio that triggered creation (the holder) was
added to the same bio list as subsequent bios. In some cases we pass
this holder bio directly to devices underneath. If those devices use
the bi_next field there will be trouble...
This also simplifies some code that had to work out which bio was the
holder.

Always set io->error to -EIO when an error is detected in dm-crypt.
There were cases where an error code would be set only if we finish
processing the last sector. If there were other encryption operations in
flight, the error would be ignored and bio would be returned with
success as if no error happened.

and kcryptd_async_done.

This patch fixes a possible deadlock in dm-crypt's mempool use.
Currently, dm-crypt reserves a mempool of MIN_BIO_PAGES reserved pages.
It allocates first MIN_BIO_PAGES with non-failing allocation (the allocation
cannot fail and waits until the mempool is refilled). Further pages are
allocated with different gfp flags that allow failing.
Because allocations may be done in parallel, this code can deadlock. Example:
There are two processes, each tries to allocate MIN_BIO_PAGES and the processes
run simultaneously.
It may end up in a situation where each process allocates (MIN_BIO_PAGES / 2)
pages. The mempool is exhausted. Each process waits for more pages to be freed
to the mempool, which never happens.
To avoid this deadlock scenario, this patch changes the code so that only
the first page is allocated with non-failing gfp mask. Allocation of further
pages may fail.

'resizing' an array in this context means making use of extra
space that has become available in component devices, not adding new
devices.
It also includes shrinking the array to take up less space of
component devices.
This is not supported for array with a 'far' layout. However
for 'near' and 'offset' layout arrays, adding and removing space at
the end of the devices is easy to support, and this patch provides

Currently we don't honour merge_bvec_fn in member devices so if there
is one, we force all requests to be single-page at most.
This is not ideal.
So create a raid1 merge_bvec_fn to check that function in children
as well.
This introduces a small problem. There is no locking around calls
the ->merge_bvec_fn and subsequent calls to ->make_request. So a
device added between these could end up getting a request which
violates its merge_bvec_fn.
Currently the best we can do is synchronize_sched(). This will work
providing no preemption happens. If there is is preemption, we just
have to hope that new devices are largely consistent with old devices.

md.h has an 'rdev_for_each()' macro for iterating the rdevs in an
mddev. However it uses the 'safe' version of list_for_each_entry,
and so requires the extra variable, but doesn't include 'safe' in the
name, which is useful documentation.
Consequently some places use this safe version without needing it, and
many use an explicity list_for_each entry.
So:
- rename rdev_for_each to rdev_for_each_safe
- create a new rdev_for_each which uses the plain
list_for_each_entry,
- use the 'safe' version only where needed, and convert all other
list_for_each_entry calls to use rdev_for_each.

If RAID1 or RAID10 is used under LVM or some other stacking
block device, it is possible to enter a deadlock during
resync or recovery.
This can happen if the upper level block device creates
two requests to the RAID1 or RAID10. The first request gets
processed, blocks recovery and queue requests for underlying
requests in current->bio_list. A resync request then starts
which will wait for those requests and block new IO.
But then the second request to the RAID1/10 will be attempted
and it cannot progress until the resync request completes,
which cannot progress until the underlying device requests complete,
which are on a queue behind that second request.
So allow that second request to proceed even though there is
a resync request about to start.
This is suitable for any -stable kernel.

It seems that with recent kernel, writeback can still be happening
while shutdown is happening, and consequently data can be written
after the md reboot notifier switches all arrays to read-only.
This causes a BUG.
So don't switch them to read-only - just mark them clean and
set 'safemode' to '2' which mean that immediately after any
write the array will be switch back to 'clean'.
This could result in the shutdown happening when array is marked
dirty, thus forcing a resync on reboot. However if you reboot
without performing a "sync" first, you get to keep both halves.
This is suitable for any stable kernel (though there might be some
conflicts with obvious fixes in earlier kernels).

When an array is failed (some data inaccessible) then there is no
point attempting to add a spare as it could not possibly be recovered.
However that may be value in re-adding a recently removed device.
e.g. if there is a write-intent-bitmap and it is clear, then access
to the data could be restored by this action.
So don't reject a re-add to a failed array for RAID10 and RAID5 (the
only arrays types that check for a failed array).
