With extended minors and the soon-to-follow debug feature, large minor
numbers for block devices will be common. This patch does the
followings to make printouts pretty.
* Adapt print formats such that large minors don't break the
formatting.
* For extended MAJ:MIN, %02x%02x for MAJ:MIN used in
printk_all_partitions() doesn't cut it anymore. Update it such that
%03x:%05x is used if either MAJ or MIN doesn't fit in %02x.
* Implement ext_range sysfs attribute which shows total minors the
device can use including both conventional minor space and the
extended one.

Implement extended device numbers. A block driver can tell block
layer that it wants to use extended device numbers. After the usual
minor space is used up, block layer automatically allocates devt's
from EXT_BLOCK_MAJOR.
Currently only one major number is allocated for this but as the
allocation is strictly on-demand, ~1mil minor space under it should
suffice unless the system actually has more than ~1mil partitions and
if that ever happens adding more majors to the extended devt area is
easy.
Due to internal implementation issues, the first partition can't be
allocated on the extended area. In other words, genhd->minors should
at least be 1. This limitation will be lifted by later changes.

There are two variants of stat functions - ones prefixed with double
underbars which don't care about preemption and ones without which
disable preemption before manipulating per-cpu counters. It's unclear
whether the underbarred ones assume that preemtion is disabled on
entry as some callers don't do that.
This patch unifies diskstats access by implementing disk_stat_lock()
and disk_stat_unlock() which take care of both RCU (for partition
access) and preemption (for per-cpu counter access). diskstats access
should always be enclosed between the two functions. As such, there's
no need for the versions which disables preemption. They're removed
and double underbars ones are renamed to drop the underbars. As an
extra argument is added, there's no danger of using the old version
unconverted.
disk_stat_lock() uses get_cpu() and returns the cpu index and all
diskstat functions which access per-cpu counters now has @cpu
argument to help RT.
This change adds RCU or preemption operations at some places but also
collapses several preemption ops into one at others. Overall, the
performance difference should be negligible as all involved ops are
very lightweight per-cpu ones.

disk->part[] is protected by its matching bdev's lock. However,
non-critical accesses like collecting stats and printing out sysfs and
proc information used to be performed without any locking. As
partitions can come and go dynamically, partitions can go away
underneath those non-critical accesses. As some of those accesses are
writes, this theoretically can lead to silent corruption.
This patch fixes the race by using RCU for the partition array and dev
reference counter to hold partitions.
* Rename disk->part[] to disk->__part[] to make sure no one outside
genhd layer proper accesses it directly.
* Use RCU for disk->__part[] dereferencing.
* Implement disk_{get|put}_part() which can be used to get and put
partitions from gendisk respectively.
* Iterators are implemented to help iterate through all partitions
safely.
* Functions which require RCU readlock are marked with _rcu suffix.
* Use disk_put_part() in __blkdev_put() instead of directly putting
the contained kobject.

* Implement disk_devt() and part_devt() and use them to directly
access devt instead of computing it from ->major and ->first_minor.
Note that all references to ->major and ->first_minor outside of
block layer is used to determine devt of the disk (the part0) and as
->major and ->first_minor will continue to represent devt for the
disk, converting these users aren't strictly necessary. However,
convert them for consistency.
* Implement disk_max_parts() to avoid directly deferencing
genhd->minors.
* Update bdget_disk() such that it doesn't assume consecutive minor
space.
* Move devt computation from register_disk() to add_disk() and make it
the only one (all other usages use the initially determined value).
These changes clean up the code and will help disk->part dereference
fix and extended block device numbers.

In hd_struct, @partno is used to denote partition number and a number
of other places use @part to denote hd_struct. Functions use @part
and @index instead. This causes confusion and makes it difficult to
use consistent variable names for hd_struct. Always use @partno if a
variable represents partition number.
Also, print out functions use @f or @part for seq_file argument. Use
@seqf uniformly instead.

Iterating over entries using callback usually isn't too fun especially
when the entry being iterated over can't be manipulated freely. This
patch converts class->p->class_devices to klist and implements class
device iterator so that the users can freely build their own control
structure. The users are also free to call back into class code
without worrying about locking.
class_for_each_device() and class_find_device() are converted to use
the new iterators, so their users don't have to worry about locking
anymore either.
Note: This depends on klist-dont-iterate-over-deleted-entries patch
because class_intf->add/remove_dev() depends on proper synchronization
with device removal.

A klist entry is kept on the list till all its current iterations are
finished; however, a new iteration after deletion also iterates over
deleted entries as long as their reference count stays above zero.
This causes problems for cases where there are users which iterate
over the list while synchronized against list manipulations and
natuarally expect already deleted entries to not show up during
iteration.
This patch implements dead flag which gets set on deletion so that
iteration can skip already deleted entries. The dead flag piggy backs
on the lowest bit of knode->n_klist and only visible to klist
implementation proper.
While at it, drop klist_iter->i_head as it's redundant and doesn't
offer anything in semantics or performance wise as klist_iter->i_klist
is dereferenced on every iteration anyway.

requests
struct request has an ioprio member but it is never updated because
currently bios do not hold io context information. The implication of
this is that virtio_blk ends up passing useless information to the
backend driver.
That said, some IO schedulers such as CFQ do store io context
information in struct request, but use private members for that, which
means that that information cannot be directly accessed in a IO
scheduler-independent way.
This patch adds a function to obtain the ioprio of a request. We should
avoid accessing ioprio directly and use this function instead, so that
its users do not have to care about future changes in block layer
structures or what the currently active IO controller is.
This patch does not introduce any functional changes but paves the way
for future clean-ups and enhancements.

But blkdev_issue_discard() still emits requests which are interpreted as
soft barriers, because naïve callers might otherwise issue subsequent
writes to those same sectors, which might cross on the queue (if they're
reallocated quickly enough).
Callers still _can_ issue non-barrier discard requests, but they have to
take care of queue ordering for themselves.

We may well want mkfs tools to use this to mark the whole device as
unwanted before they format it, for example.
The ioctl takes a pair of uint64_ts, which are start offset and length
in _bytes_. Although at the moment it might make sense for them both to
be in 512-byte sectors, I don't want to limit the ABI to that.

Some block devices benefit from a hint that they can forget the contents
of certain sectors. Add basic support for this to the block core, along
with a 'blkdev_issue_discard()' helper function which issues such
requests.
The caller doesn't get to provide an end_io functio, since
blkdev_issue_discard() will automatically split the request up into
multiple bios if appropriate. Neither does the function wait for
completion -- it's expected that callers won't care about when, or even
_if_, the request completes. It's only a hint to the device anyway. By
definition, the file system doesn't _care_ about these sectors any more.

The previous patch db203d53d474aa068984e409d807628f5841da1b ("mm:
tiny-shmem fix lock ordering: mmap_sem vs i_mutex") to fix the lock
ordering in tiny-shmem breaks shared anonymous and IPC memory on NOMMU
architectures because it was using the expanding truncate to signal ramfs
to allocate a physically contiguous RAM backing the inode (otherwise it is
unusable for "memory mapping" it to userspace).
However do_truncate is what caused the lock ordering error, due to it
taking i_mutex. In this case, we can actually just call ramfs directly to
allocate memory for the mapping, rather than go via truncate.

Since call to function sctp_sf_abort_violation() need paramter 'arg' with

with PGDIR_SIZE. For exeample, if we use 16KB page size the PGDIR_SHIFT is
(14-2) + 14 = 26, PGDIR_SIZE is 2^26，so the PTRS_PER_PGD should be:
2^32/2^26 = 2^6
but the original definition of PTRS_PER_PGD is 4096 (PGDIR_ORDER = 0).

Impact: hang which happens across CPU offline/online on AMD C1E systems.
When a CPU goes offline then the corresponding bit in the broadcast
mask is cleared. For AMD C1E enabled CPUs we do not reenable the
broadcast when the CPU comes online again as we do not clear the
corresponding bit in the c1e_mask, which keeps track which CPUs
have been switched to broadcast already. So on those !$@#& machines
we never switch back to broadcasting after a CPU offline/online cycle.
Clear the bit when the CPU plays dead.
