<id>urn:sha1:21aa65bf82a78c1e70447a45a85e533689b7f1a7</id>
<content type='text'>
All PFN_* pfn_t flags have been removed.  Therefore there is no longer a
need for the pfn_t type and all uses can be replaced with normal pfns.

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree
over and remove the historical wrapper inlines.

Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary.

<content type='text'>
Some IO will dispatch from kworker with different io_context settings
than the submitting task, we may need to specify a priority to avoid
losing priority.

Add IO priority parameter to dm_io() and update all callers.

<title>dm writecache: allow allocations larger than 2GiB</title>

<id>urn:sha1:40ef8756fbdd9faec4da5d70352b28f1196132ed</id>
<content type='text'>
The function kvmalloc_node limits the allocation size to INT_MAX. This
limit will be overflowed if dm-writecache attempts to map a device with
1TiB or larger length. This commit changes kvmalloc_array to vmalloc_array
to avoid the limit.

The commit also changes vmalloc(array_size()) to vmalloc_array().

<title>dm: add helper macro for simple DM target module init and exit</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3664ff82dae1ef9f14f7763d3dd30565e7ef9e14</id>
<content type='text'>
Eliminate duplicate boilerplate code for simple modules that contain
a single DM target driver without any additional setup code.

Add a new module_dm() macro, which replaces the module_init() and
module_exit() with template functions that call dm_register_target()
and dm_unregister_target() respectively.

Simplifies each DM target's init method by making dm_register_target()
responsible for its error reporting (on behalf of targets).
