Merge tag 'for-4.20/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - The biggest change this cycle is to remove support for the legacy IO
   path (.request_fn) from request-based DM.

   Jens has already started preparing for complete removal of the legacy
   IO path in 4.21 but this earlier removal of support from DM has been
   coordinated with Jens (as evidenced by the commit being attributed to
   him).

   Making request-based DM exclussively blk-mq only cleans up that
   portion of DM core quite nicely.

 - Convert the thinp and zoned targets over to using refcount_t where
   applicable.

 - A couple fixes to the DM zoned target for refcounting and other races
   buried in the implementation of metadata block creation and use.

 - Small cleanups to remove redundant unlikely() around a couple
   WARN_ON_ONCE().

 - Simplify how dm-ioctl copies from userspace, eliminating some
   potential for a malicious user trying to change the executed ioctl
   after its processing has begun.

 - Tweaked DM crypt target to use the DM device name when naming the
   various workqueues created for a particular DM crypt device (makes
   the N workqueues for a DM crypt device more easily understood and
   enhances user's accounting capabilities at a glance via "ps")

 - Small fixup to remove dead branch in DM writecache's memory_entry().
