[ Upstream commit d6d0e6b9d54532264761405a1ba8ea5bd293acb1 ]

dm_exec_wrappedkey_op() passes through the derive_sw_secret, import_key,
generate_key, and prepare_key blk-crypto operations to an underlying
device.

Currently, it calls the operation on every underlying device until one
returns success.

This logic is flawed when the operation is expected to fail, such as an
invalid key being passed to derive_sw_secret.  That can happen if
userspace passes an invalid key to the FS_IOC_ADD_ENCRYPTION_KEY ioctl.

When that happens on a device-mapper device that consists of many
dm-linear targets, a lot of unnecessary key unwrapping requests get sent
to the underlying key wrapping hardware.

Fix this by considering the first device only.  As already documented in
the comment, it was already checked that all underlying devices support
wrapped keys, so this should be fine.

Fixes: e93912786e50 ("dm: pass through operations on wrapped inline crypto keys")

The unmap write zeroes limits have been set to the stacking queue limits
by default in blk_set_stacking_limits() and blk_stack_limits(), but it
should be cleared if any underlying device does not support it.

Due to the semantics of iterate_devices(), the current code allows a
request-based dm table as long as it includes one request-stackable
device. It is supposed to only allow tables where there are no
non-request-stackable devices.

Improve code readability by using bdev_is_zone_aligned() and
bdev_offset_from_zone_start() where applicable. No functionality
has been changed.

This patch is a reworked version of a patch from Pankaj Raghav.

Make the device-mapper layer pass through the derive_sw_secret,
import_key, generate_key, and prepare_key blk-crypto operations when all
underlying devices support hardware-wrapped inline crypto keys and are
passing through inline crypto support.

Commit ebc4176551cd ("blk-crypto: add basic hardware-wrapped key
support") already made BLK_CRYPTO_KEY_TYPE_HW_WRAPPED be passed through
in the same way that the other crypto capabilities are.  But the wrapped
key support also includes additional operations in blk_crypto_ll_ops,
and the dm layer needs to implement those to pass them through.
derive_sw_secret is needed by fscrypt, while the other operations are
needed for the new blk-crypto ioctls to work on device-mapper devices
and not just the raw partitions.

<content type='text'>
Feature flag BLK_FEAT_ATOMIC_WRITES is not being properly set for the
target queue limits, and this means that atomic writes are not being
enabled for any dm personalities.

When calling dm_set_device_limits() -&gt; blk_stack_limits() -&gt;
... -&gt; blk_stack_atomic_writes_limits(), the bottom device limits
(which corresponds to intermediate target queue limits) does not have
BLK_FEAT_ATOMIC_WRITES set, and so atomic writes can never be enabled.

Typically such a flag would be inherited from the stacked device in
dm_set_device_limits() -&gt; blk_stack_limits() via BLK_FEAT_INHERIT_MASK,
but BLK_FEAT_ATOMIC_WRITES is not inherited as it's preferred to manually
enable on a per-personality basis.

Set BLK_FEAT_ATOMIC_WRITES manually for the intermediate target queue
limits from the stacked device to get atomic writes working.
