In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to
all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer()
to pass the timer pointer explicitly.

We had one call to kmalloc that actually allocates an array. Switch that
one to the kmalloc_array() function.

This is a follow-up to Gregs complaints that drbd clutteres the global
namespace.
Some of DRBD's module parameters are only used within one compilation
unit. Make these static.

<title>drbd: fix race between handshake and admin disconnect/down</title>

<content type='text'>
conn_try_disconnect() could potentialy hit the BUG_ON()
in _conn_set_state() where it iterates over _drbd_set_state()
and "asserts" via BUG_ON() that the latter was successful.

If the STATE_SENT bit was not yet visible to conn_is_valid_transition()
early in _conn_request_state(), but became visible before conn_set_state()
later in that call path, we could hit the BUG_ON() after _drbd_set_state(),
because it returned SS_IN_TRANSIENT_STATE.

To avoid that race, we better protect set_bit(SENT_STATE) with the spinlock.

We get a few warnings when building kernel with W=1:
drbd/drbd_receiver.c:1224:6: warning: no previous prototype for 'one_flush_endio' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
drbd/drbd_req.c:1450:6: warning: no previous prototype for 'send_and_submit_pending' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
drbd/drbd_main.c:924:6: warning: no previous prototype for 'assign_p_sizes_qlim' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
....

In fact, these functions are only used in the file in which they are
declared and don't need a declaration, but can be made static.
So this patch marks these functions with 'static'.

<title>drbd: introduce drbd_recv_header_maybe_unplug</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c51a0ef3747a412df4a7345d939190a99bc2a0cc</id>
<content type='text'>
Recently, drbd_recv_header() was changed to potentially
implicitly "unplug" the backend device(s), in case there
is currently nothing to receive.

Be more explicit about it: re-introduce the original drbd_recv_header(),
and introduce a new drbd_recv_header_maybe_unplug() for use by the
receiver "main loop".

Using explicit plugging via blk_start_plug(); blk_finish_plug();
really helps the io-scheduler of the backend with merging requests.

Wrap the receiver "main loop" with such a plug.
Also catch unplug events on the Primary,
and try to propagate.

This is performance relevant.  Without this, if the receiving side does
not merge requests, number of IOPS on the peer can me significantly
higher than IOPS on the Primary, and can easily become the bottleneck.

Together, both changes should help to reduce the number of IOPS
as seen on the backend of the receiving side, by increasing
the chance of merging mergable requests, without trading latency
for more throughput.

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

<id>urn:sha1:74d46992e0d9dee7f1f376de0d56d31614c8a17a</id>
<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.

It seems like DRBD assumes its on the wire TRIM request always zeroes data.
Use that fact to implement REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES.
