<id>urn:sha1:498f6650aec864e331cae7575fec5f07781d0bf3</id>

Initialize the request queue lock earlier such that the following
race can no longer occur:

blk_init_queue_node()             blkcg_print_blkgs()
  blk_alloc_queue_node (1)
    q-&gt;queue_lock = &amp;q-&gt;__queue_lock (2)
    blkcg_init_queue(q) (3)
                                    spin_lock_irq(blkg-&gt;q-&gt;queue_lock) (4)
  q-&gt;queue_lock = lock (5)
                                    spin_unlock_irq(blkg-&gt;q-&gt;queue_lock) (6)

(1) allocate an uninitialized queue;
(2) initialize queue_lock to its default internal lock;
(3) initialize blkcg part of request queue, which will create blkg and
    then insert it to blkg_list;
(4) traverse blkg_list and find the created blkg, and then take its
    queue lock, here it is the default *internal lock*;
(5) *race window*, now queue_lock is overridden with *driver specified
    lock*;
(6) now unlock *driver specified lock*, not the locked *internal lock*,
    unlock balance breaks.

The changes in this patch are as follows:
- Move the .queue_lock initialization from blk_init_queue_node() into
  blk_alloc_queue_node().
- Only override the .queue_lock pointer for legacy queues because it
  is not useful for blk-mq queues to override this pointer.
- For all all block drivers that initialize .queue_lock explicitly,
  change the blk_alloc_queue() call in the driver into a
  blk_alloc_queue_node() call and remove the explicit .queue_lock
  initialization. Additionally, initialize the spin lock that will
  be used as queue lock earlier if necessary.

<id>urn:sha1:e99e88a9d2b067465adaa9c111ada99a041bef9a</id>

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:

	-I ./arch/x86/include -I ./arch/x86/include/generated \
	-I ./include -I ./arch/x86/include/uapi \

This mechanically converts all remaining cases of ancient open-coded timer
setup with the old setup_timer() API, which is the first step in timer
conversions. This has no behavioral changes, since it ultimately just
changes the order of assignment to fields of struct timer_list when
finding variations of:

    init_timer(&amp;t);
    f.function = timer_callback;
    t.data = timer_callback_arg;

to be converted into:

    setup_timer(&amp;t, timer_callback, timer_callback_arg);

The conversion is done with the following Coccinelle script, which
is an improved version of scripts/cocci/api/setup_timer.cocci, in the
following ways:
 - assignments-before-init_timer() cases
 - limit the .data case removal to the specific struct timer_list instance
 - handling calls by dereference (timer-&gt;field vs timer.field)

<title>blk: remove bio_set arg from blk_queue_split()</title>

blk_queue_split() is always called with the last arg being q-&gt;bio_split,
where 'q' is the first arg.

Also blk_queue_split() sometimes uses the passed-in 'bs' and sometimes uses
q-&gt;bio_split.

This is inconsistent and unnecessary.  Remove the last arg and always use
q-&gt;bio_split inside blk_queue_split()

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.

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al:

  PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*&lt;asm/uaccess.h&gt;'
  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include &lt;linux/uaccess.h&gt;!" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

<title>block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opf</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1eff9d322a444245c67515edb52bc0eb68374aa8</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio-&gt;bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.

No intended functional changes in this commit.

<title>block: get rid of bio_rw and READA</title>

These two are confusing leftover of the old world order, combining
values of the REQ_OP_ and REQ_ namespaces.  For callers that don't
special case we mostly just replace bi_rw with bio_data_dir or
op_is_write, except for the few cases where a switch over the REQ_OP_
values makes more sense.  Any check for READA is replaced with an
explicit check for REQ_RAHEAD.  Also remove the READA alias for
REQ_RAHEAD.

<title>block, drivers, cgroup: use op_is_write helper instead of checking for REQ_WRITE</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a8ebb056a8aeb58aafef0af241a6b3ac34ac86bd</id>
<content type='text'>
We currently set REQ_WRITE/WRITE for all non READ IOs
like discard, flush, writesame, etc. In the next patches where we
no longer set up the op as a bitmap, we will not be able to
detect a operation direction like writesame by testing if REQ_WRITE is
set.

This patch converts the drivers and cgroup to use the
op_is_write helper. This should just cover the simple
cases. I did dm, md and bcache in their own patches
because they were more involved.
