 - bio_set_pages_dirty(), bio_check_pages_dirty() - dio path
 - blk_status_to_str() - error messages
 - bio_add_folio() - this should definitely be exported for everyone,
   it's the modern version of bio_add_page()

<title>blk-flush: count inflight flush_data requests</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b175c86739d38e41044d3136065f092a6d95aee6</id>
<content type='text'>
The flush state machine use a double list to link all inflight
flush_data requests, to avoid issuing separate post-flushes for
these flush_data requests which shared PREFLUSH.

So we can't reuse rq-&gt;queuelist, this is why we need rq-&gt;flush.list

In preparation of the next patch that reuse rq-&gt;queuelist for flush
state machine, we change the double linked list to unsigned long
counter, which count all inflight flush_data requests.

This is ok since we only need to know if there is any inflight
flush_data request, so unsigned long counter is good.

<title>block: replace fmode_t with a block-specific type for block open flags</title>

<content type='text'>
The only overlap between the block open flags mapped into the fmode_t and
other uses of fmode_t are FMODE_READ and FMODE_WRITE.  Define a new
blk_mode_t instead for use in blkdev_get_by_{dev,path}, -&gt;open and
-&gt;ioctl and stop abusing fmode_t.

<title>block: delete partitions later in del_gendisk</title>

<id>urn:sha1:eec1be4c30df73238b936fa9f3653773a6f8b15c</id>
<content type='text'>
Delay dropping the block_devices for partitions in del_gendisk until
after the call to blk_mark_disk_dead, so that we can implementat
notification of removed devices in blk_mark_disk_dead.

This requires splitting a lower-level drop_partition helper out of
delete_partition and using that from del_gendisk, while having a
common loop for the whole device and partitions that calls
remove_inode_hash, fsync_bdev and __invalidate_device before the
call to blk_mark_disk_dead.

<title>blk-mq: defer to the normal submission path for non-flush flush commands</title>

If blk_insert_flush decides that a command does not need to use the
flush state machine, return false and let blk_mq_submit_bio handle
it the normal way (including using an I/O scheduler) instead of doing
a bypass insert.
