<content type='text'>
Improve static type checking by using the enum req_op type for variables
that represent a request operation and the new blk_opf_t type for
variables that represent request flags.

<title>block: pass a block_device and opf to bio_alloc_bioset</title>

<content type='text'>
Pass the block_device and operation that we plan to use this bio for to
bio_alloc_bioset to optimize the assigment.  NULL/0 can be passed, both
for the passthrough case on a raw request_queue and to temporarily avoid
refactoring some nasty code.

Also move the gfp_mask argument after the nr_vecs argument for a much
more logical calling convention matching what most of the kernel does.

Given that drbd_md_io_bio_set is initialized during module initialization
and the module fails to load if the initialization fails there is no need
to fall back to plain bio_alloc.

DRBD keeps a block device open just to get and set the capacity from
it.  Switch to primarily using the disk capacity as intended by the
block layer, and sync it to the bdev using revalidate_disk_size.

<title>block: replace bi_bdev with a gendisk pointer and partitions index</title>

<content type='text'>
This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O.  The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open.  Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).

For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device.  But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.

Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

Replace bi_error with a new bi_status to allow for a clear conversion.
Note that device mapper overloaded bi_error with a private value, which
we'll have to keep arround at least for now and thus propagate to a
proper blk_status_t value.

Noidle should be the default for writes as seen by all the compounds
definitions in fs.h using it.  In fact only direct I/O really should
be using NODILE, so turn the whole flag around to get the defaults
right, which will make our life much easier especially onces the
WRITE_* defines go away.

This assumes all the existing "raw" users of REQ_SYNC for writes
want noidle behavior, which seems to be spot on from a quick audit.

kernel.h header doesn't directly use dynamic debug, instead we can
include it in module.c (which used it via kernel.h).  printk.h only uses
it if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is on, changing the inclusion to only happen
in that case.

<title>drbd: al_write_transaction: skip re-scanning of bitmap page pointer array</title>

<content type='text'>
For larger devices, the array of bitmap page pointers can grow very
large (8000 pointers per TB of storage).

For each activity log transaction, we need to flush the associated
bitmap pages to stable storage. Currently, we just "mark" the respective
pages while setting up the transaction, then tell the bitmap code to
write out all marked pages, but skip unchanged pages.

But one such transaction can affect only a small number of bitmap pages,
there is no need to scan the full array of several (ten-)thousand
page pointers to find the few marked ones.

Instead, remember the index numbers of the few affected pages,
and later only re-check those to skip duplicates and unchanged ones.
