aio: make the lookup_ioctx() lockless
The mm->ioctx_list is currently protected by a reader-writer lock,
so we always grab that lock on the read side for doing ioctx
lookups. As the workload is extremely reader biased, turn this into
an rcu hlist so we can make lookup_ioctx() lockless. Get rid of
the rwlock and use a spinlock for providing update side exclusion.
There's usually only 1 entry on this list, so it doesn't make sense
to look into fancier data structures.

bio: add support for inlining a number of bio_vecs inside the bio
When we go and allocate a bio for IO, we actually do two allocations.
One for the bio itself, and one for the bi_io_vec that holds the
actual pages we are interested in.
This feature inlines a definable amount of io vecs inside the bio
itself, so we eliminate the bio_vec array allocation for IO's up
to a certain size. It defaults to 4 vecs, which is typically 16k
of IO.

bio: allow individual slabs in the bio_set
Instead of having a global bio slab cache, add a reference to one
in each bio_set that is created. This allows for personalized slabs
in each bio_set, so that they can have bios of different sizes.
This means we can personalize the bios we return. File systems may
want to embed the bio inside another structure, to avoid allocation
more items (and stuffing them in ->bi_private) after the get a bio.
Or we may want to embed a number of bio_vecs directly at the end
of a bio, to avoid doing two allocations to return a bio. This is now
possible.

bio: only mempool back the largest bio_vec slab cache
We only very rarely need the mempool backing, so it makes sense to
get rid of all but one of the mempool in a bio_set. So keep the
largest bio_vec count mempool so we can always honor the largest
allocation, and "upgrade" callers that fail.

* Drain completion in elv_complete_request() assumed that there's

block: Supress Buffer I/O errors when SCSI REQ_QUIET flag set
Allow the scsi request REQ_QUIET flag to be propagated to the buffer
file system layer. The basic ideas is to pass the flag from the scsi
request to the bio (block IO) and then to the buffer layer. The buffer
layer can then suppress needless printks.
This patch declutters the kernel log by removed the 40-50 (per lun)
buffer io error messages seen during a boot in my multipath setup . It
is a good chance any real errors will be missed in the "noise" it the
logs without this patch.
During boot I see blocks of messages like
"
__ratelimit: 211 callbacks suppressed
Buffer I/O error on device sdm, logical block 5242879

"
in my logs.
My disk environment is multipath fiber channel using the SCSI_DH_RDAC
code and multipathd. This topology includes an "active" and "ghost"
path for each lun. IO's to the "ghost" path will never complete and the
SCSI layer, via the scsi device handler rdac code, quick returns the IOs
to theses paths and sets the REQ_QUIET scsi flag to suppress the scsi
layer messages.
I am wanting to extend the QUIET behavior to include the buffer file
system layer to deal with these errors as well. I have been running this
patch for a while now on several boxes without issue. A few runs of
bonnie++ show no noticeable difference in performance in my setup.

we then don't have to readd the timer again. If no new requests arrive,
the timer will expire without side effect later.

access a request's deadline field if blk_rq_timed_out is called on it.

m68k: mac baboon interrupt enable/disable
No-one seems to know how to mask individual baboon interrupts, so we just
mask the umbrella IRQ. This will work as long as only the IDE driver uses
the baboon chip (it can't deadlock). Use mac_enable_irq/mac_disable_irq
rather than enable_irq/disable_irq because the latter routines count the
depth of nested calls which triggers a warning and call trace because
IRQ_NUBUS_C is enabled twice in a row (once when the baboon handler is
registered, and once when the IDE IRQ is registered).

The initial skb may have been freed after napi_gro_complete in

The recent GRO patches introduced the NAPI removal of devices in
free_netdev. For drivers that can change the number of queues during
driver operation, the NAPI infrastructure doesn't allow the freeing and
re-addition of NAPI entities without reloading the driver.
This change reinitializes the dev_list in each NAPI struct on delete,
instead of just deleting it (and assigning the list pointers to POISON).
Drivers that wish to remove/re-add NAPI will need to re-initialize the
netdev napi_list after removing all NAPI instances, before re-adding NAPI
devices again.
