Combine the newly merged bdev_mark_dead helper with the existing
mark_dead holder operation so that all operations that invalidate
a device that is dead or being removed now go through the holder
ops. This allows file systems to explicitly shutdown either ASAP
(for a surprise removal) or after writing back data (for an orderly
removal), and do so not only for the main device.

We currently have two interfaces that take a block_devices and the find
a mounted file systems to flush or invaldidate data on it. Both are a
bit problematic because they only work for the "main" block devices
that is used as s_dev for the super_block, and because they don't call
into the file system at all.
Merge the two into a new bdev_mark_dead helper that does both the
syncing and invalidation and which is properly documented. This is
in preparation of merging the functionality into the ->mark_dead
holder operation so that it will work on additional block devices
used by a file systems and give us a single entry point for invalidation
of dead devices or media.
Note that a single standalone fsync_bdev call for an obscure ioctl
remains for now, but that one will also be deal with in a bit.

Don't just write out the data, but also invalidate all caches when setting

While changing the format of a floppy isn't strictly speaking a media
change, the effects are the same in that the content of the media
changes and the diskseq should be increased and uevent should be
sent. Switch from calling __invalidate_device to
disk_force_media_change to do so.

nbd_clear_sock_ioctl kills the socket and with that the block
device. Instead of just invalidating file system buffers,
mark the device as dead, which will also invalidate the buffers
as part of the proper shutdown sequence. This also includes
invalidating partitions if there are any.

Just like get_tree_bdev needs to drop s_umount when opening the main
device, we need to do the same for the xfs log and RT devices to avoid a
potential lock order reversal with s_unmount for the mark_dead path.
It might be preferable to just drop s_umount over ->fill_super entirely,
but that will require a fairly massive audit first, so we'll do the easy
version here first.

fs_mark_dead currently uses get_super to find the superblock for the
block device that is going away. This means it is limited to the
main device stored in sb->s_dev, leading to a lot of code duplication
for file systems that can use multiple block devices.
Now that the holder for all block devices used by file systems is set
to the super_block, we can instead look at that holder and then check
if the file system is born and active, so do that instead.

Use the generic setup_bdev_super helper to open the main block device
and do various bits of superblock setup instead of duplicating the
logic. This includes moving to the new scheme implemented in common
code that only opens the block device after the superblock has allocated.
It does not yet convert nilfs2 to the new mount API, but doing so will
become a bit simpler after this first step.

Currently get_tree_bdev and mount_bdev open the block device before
committing to allocating a super block. That creates problems for
restricting the number of writers to a device, and also leads to a
unusual and not very helpful holder (the fs_type).
Reorganize the super block code to first look whether the superblock for
a particular device does already exist and open the block device only if
it doesn't.

bdev->bd_super is a somewhat awkward backpointer from a block device to
an owning file system with unclear rules.
For the buffer_head code we already have a good backpointer for the
inode that the buffer_head is associated with, even if it lives on the
block device mapping: b_assoc_map. It is used track dirty buffers
associated with an inode but living on the block device mapping like
directory buffers in ext4.
mark_buffer_write_io_error already uses it for the call to
mapping_set_error, and should be doing the same for the per-sb error
sequence.

We just sorted the entries and fields last release, so just out of a
perverse sense of curiosity, I decided to see if we can keep things
ordered for even just one release.
The answer is "No. No we cannot".
I suggest that all kernel developers will need weekly training sessions,
involving a lot of Big Bird and Sesame Street. And at the yearly
maintainer summit, we will all sing the alphabet song together.
I doubt I will keep doing this. At some point "perverse sense of
curiosity" turns into just a cold dark place filled with sadness and
despair.

fork: lock VMAs of the parent process when forking
|
|
When forking a child process, the parent write-protects anonymous pages
and COW-shares them with the child being forked using copy_present_pte().
We must not take any concurrent page faults on the source vma's as they
are being processed, as we expect both the vma and the pte's behind it
to be stable. For example, the anon_vma_fork() expects the parents
vma->anon_vma to not change during the vma copy.
A concurrent page fault on a page newly marked read-only by the page
copy might trigger wp_page_copy() and a anon_vma_prepare(vma) on the
source vma, defeating the anon_vma_clone() that wasn't done because the
parent vma originally didn't have an anon_vma, but we now might end up
copying a pte entry for a page that has one.
Before the per-vma lock based changes, the mmap_lock guaranteed
exclusion with concurrent page faults. But now we need to do a
vma_start_write() to make sure no concurrent faults happen on this vma
while it is being processed.
This fix can potentially regress some fork-heavy workloads. Kernel
build time did not show noticeable regression on a 56-core machine while
a stress test mapping 10000 VMAs and forking 5000 times in a tight loop
shows ~5% regression. If such fork time regression is unacceptable,
disabling CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK should restore its performance. Further
optimizations are possible if this regression proves to be problematic.

mmap_region adds a newly created VMA into VMA tree and might modify it
afterwards before dropping the mmap_lock. This poses a problem for page
faults handled under per-VMA locks because they don't take the mmap_lock
and can stumble on this VMA while it's still being modified. Currently
this does not pose a problem since post-addition modifications are done
only for file-backed VMAs, which are not handled under per-VMA lock.
However, once support for handling file-backed page faults with per-VMA
locks is added, this will become a race.
Fix this by write-locking the VMA before inserting it into the VMA tree.
Other places where a new VMA is added into VMA tree do not modify it
after the insertion, so do not need the same locking.
