[ Upstream commit a11f6ca9aef989b56cd31ff4ee2af4fb31a172ec ]

__vdc_tx_trigger should only loop on EAGAIN a finite
number of times.

See commit adddc32d6fde ("sunvnet: Do not spin in an
infinite loop when vio_ldc_send() returns EAGAIN") for detail.

<content type='text'>
In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this moves
the math for cookies calculation into macros and allocates a fixed size
array for the maximum number of cookies and adds a runtime sanity check.
(Note that the size was always fixed, but just hidden from the compiler.)

<content type='text'>
Update device_add_disk() to take an 'groups' argument so that
individual drivers can register a device with additional sysfs
attributes.
This avoids race condition the driver would otherwise have if these
groups were to be created with sysfs_add_groups().

<title>treewide: setup_timer() -&gt; timer_setup()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e99e88a9d2b067465adaa9c111ada99a041bef9a</id>
<content type='text'>
This converts all remaining cases of the old setup_timer() API into using
timer_setup(), where the callback argument is the structure already
holding the struct timer_list. These should have no behavioral changes,
since they just change which pointer is passed into the callback with
the same available pointers after conversion. It handles the following
examples, in addition to some other variations.

Casting from unsigned long:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
        struct something *ptr = (struct something *)data;
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&amp;ptr-&gt;my_timer, my_callback, ptr);

and forced object casts:

    void my_callback(struct something *ptr)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&amp;ptr-&gt;my_timer, my_callback, (unsigned long)ptr);

become:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *t)
    {
        struct something *ptr = from_timer(ptr, t, my_timer);
    ...
    }
    ...
    timer_setup(&amp;ptr-&gt;my_timer, my_callback, 0);

Direct function assignments:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
        struct something *ptr = (struct something *)data;
    ...
    }
    ...
    ptr-&gt;my_timer.function = my_callback;

have a temporary cast added, along with converting the args:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *t)
    {
        struct something *ptr = from_timer(ptr, t, my_timer);
    ...
    }
    ...
    ptr-&gt;my_timer.function = (TIMER_FUNC_TYPE)my_callback;

And finally, callbacks without a data assignment:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&amp;ptr-&gt;my_timer, my_callback, 0);

have their argument renamed to verify they're unused during conversion:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *unused)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    timer_setup(&amp;ptr-&gt;my_timer, my_callback, 0);

The conversion is done with the following Coccinelle script:

spatch --very-quiet --all-includes --include-headers \
	-I ./arch/x86/include -I ./arch/x86/include/generated \
	-I ./include -I ./arch/x86/include/uapi \
	-I ./arch/x86/include/generated/uapi -I ./include/uapi \

Using mpgroup to define multiple paths for a virtual disk causes multiple
virtual-device-port ports to be created for that virtual device.
Each virtual-device-port port then gets a vdisk created for it by the Linux
sunvdc driver. As mpgroup is not supported by the Linux sunvdc driver it
cannot handle multiple ports for a single vdisk, leading to a kernel panic
at startup.

This fix prevents more than one vdisk per virtual-device-port being created
until full virtual disk multipathing (mpgroup) support is implemented.

<title>block: introduce new block status code type</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2a842acab109f40f0d7d10b38e9ca88390628996</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings.  This patch
instead introduces a new  blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
status codes and explicitly explains their meaning.  Helpers to convert from
and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.

For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
fruite to improve it.

blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

<title>sunvdc: Add support for setting physical sector size</title>

Physical sector size is supported in v1.2 of the vDisk protocol and
should be set if available.  If protocol version 1.2 is used and the
physical disk size is unavailable, then the disk is considered busy.

For block drivers that specify a parent device, convert them to use
device_add_disk().

This conversion was done with the following semantic patch:

    @@
    struct gendisk *disk;
    expression E;
    @@

    - disk-&gt;driverfs_dev = E;
    ...
    - add_disk(disk);
    + device_add_disk(E, disk);

    @@
    struct gendisk *disk;
    expression E1, E2;
    @@

    - disk-&gt;driverfs_dev = E1;
    ...
    E2 = disk;
    ...
    - add_disk(E2);
    + device_add_disk(E1, E2);

...plus some manual fixups for a few missed conversions.

<title>sunvdc: reconnect ldc after vds service domain restarts</title>

<content type='text'>
This change enables the sunvdc driver to reconnect and recover if a vds
service domain is disconnected or bounced.

By default, it will wait indefinitely for the service domain to become
available again, but will honor a non-zero vdc-timout md property if one
is set. If a timeout is reached, any in-progress I/O's are completed
with -EIO.
