RAID1 and RAID10 handle write requests by queuing them for handling by
a separate thread. This is because when a write-intent-bitmap is
active we might need to update the bitmap first, so it is good to
queue a lot of writes, then do one big bitmap update for them all.
However writeback request devices to appear to be congested after a
while so it can make some guesstimate of throughput. The infinite
queue defeats that (note that RAID5 has already has a finite queue so
it doesn't suffer from this problem).
So impose a limit on the number of pending write requests. By default
it is 1024 which seems to be generally suitable. Make it configurable
via module option just in case someone finds a regression.

When md assembles a RAID0 array it prints out lots of info which
is really just for debugging, so convert that to pr_debug.
It also prints out the resulting configuration which could be
interesting, so keep that as 'printk' but tidy it up a bit.

The md_notify_reboot() method includes a call to mdelay(1000),
to deal with "exotic SCSI devices" which are too volatile on
reboot. The delay is unconditional. Even if the machine does
not have any block devices, let alone MD devices, the kernel
shutdown sequence is slowed down.
1 second does not matter much with physical hardware, but with
certain virtualization use cases any wasted time in the bootup
& shutdown sequence counts for alot.

The 'allclean' flag is used to cache the fact that there is nothing to
do, so we can avoid waking up and scanning the bitmap regularly.
The two sorts of pages that might need the attention of the bitmap
daemon are BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING and BITMAP_PAGE_NEEDWRITE pages.
So make sure allclean reflects exactly when there are none of those.
So:
set it before scanning all pages with either bit set.
clear it whenever these bits are set
clear it when we desire not to clear one of these bits.
don't clear it any other time.

The flag 'BITMAP_PAGE_CLEAN' has a confusing name as it doesn't mean
that the page is clean, but rather that there are counters in the page
which allow bits in the bitmap to be cleared - i.e. maybe cleaning can
happen.
So change it to BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING and fix some irregularities:
- Don't set it in bitmap_init_from_disk as bitmap_set_memory_bits
sets it when needed
- in bitmap_daemon_work, if we find a counter that is '1', but
need_sync is set, then set BITMAP_PAGE_PENDING again (it was
recently cleared) to ensure we don't forget about this bit.

Two related problems:
1/ some error paths call "md_unregister_thread(mddev->thread)"
without subsequently clearing ->thread. A subsequent call
to mddev_unlock will try to wake the thread, and crash.
2/ Most calls to md_wakeup_thread are protected against the thread
disappeared either by:
- holding the ->mutex
- having an active request, so something else must be keeping
the array active.
However mddev_unlock calls md_wakeup_thread after dropping the
mutex and without any certainty of an active request, so the
->thread could theoretically disappear.
So we need a spinlock to provide some protections.
So change md_unregister_thread to take a pointer to the thread
pointer, and ensure that it always does the required locking, and
clears the pointer properly.

0.90 metadata uses an unsigned 32bit number to count the number of
kilobytes used from each device.
This should allow up to 4TB per device.
However we multiply this by 2 (to get sectors) before casting to a
larger type, so sizes above 2TB get truncated.
Also we allow rdev->sectors to be larger than 4TB, so it is possible
for the array to be resized larger than the metadata can handle.
So make sure rdev->sectors never exceeds 4TB when 0.90 metadata is in
used.
Also the sanity check at the end of super_90_load should include level
1 as it used ->size too. (RAID0 and Linear don't use ->size at all).

A single request to RAID1 or RAID10 might result in multiple
requests if there are known bad blocks that need to be avoided.
To detect if we need to submit another write request we test:
if (sectors_handled < (bio->bi_size >> 9)) {
However this is after we call **_write_done() so the 'bio' no longer
belongs to us - the writes could have completed and the bio freed.
So move the **_write_done call until after the test against
bio->bi_size.

A write can complete at two different places:
1/ when the last member-device write completes, through
raid10_end_write_request
2/ in make_request() when we remove the initial bias from ->remaining.
These two should do exactly the same thing and the comment says they
do, but they don't.
So factor the correct code out into a function and call it in both
places. This makes the code much more similar to RAID1.
The difference is only significant if there is an error, and they
usually take a while, so it is unlikely that there will be an error
already when make_request is completing, so this is unlikely to cause
real problems.

On the last close of an 'md' device which as been stopped, the device
is destroyed and in particular the request_queue is freed. The free
is done in a separate thread so it might happen a short time later.
__blkdev_put calls bdev_inode_switch_bdi *after* ->release has been
called.
Since commit f758eeabeb
bdev_inode_switch_bdi will dereference the 'old' bdi, which lives
inside a request_queue, to get a spin lock. This causes the last
close on an md device to sometime take a spin_lock which lives in
freed memory - which results in an oops.
So move the called to bdev_inode_switch_bdi before the call to
->release.

Waiting for a 'blocked' rdev to become unblocked in the raid5d thread
cannot work with internal metadata as it is the raid5d thread which
will clear the blocked flag.
This wasn't a problem in 3.0 and earlier as we only set the blocked
flag when external metadata was used then.
However we now set it always, so we need to be more careful.

When the 'blocked' flag on a device is cleared while there are
unacknowledged bad blocks we must fail the device. This is needed for
backwards compatability of the interface.

Queue idling is used for the anticipation of immediate
sequencial I/O's but md_super_write() is a kind of one-
shot operation, coupled with md_super_wait(), so the
idling in this case will be just a waste of time.
Specifying REQ_NOIDLE prevents it. Instead of adding
the flag to submit_bio() directly, use pre-defined
macro WRITE_FLUSH_FUA.

Sometimes a device will refuse to be set faulty. e.g. RAID1 will
never let the last working device become faulty.
So check if "md_error()" did manage to set the faulty flag and fail
with EBUSY if it didn't.

x86-32, vdso: On system call restart after SYSENTER, use int $0x80
x86, UV: Remove UV delay in starting slave cpus
x86, olpc: Wait for last byte of EC command to be accepted
When we enter a 32-bit system call via SYSENTER or SYSCALL, we shuffle
the arguments to match the int $0x80 calling convention. This was
probably a design mistake, but it's what it is now. This causes
errors if the system call as to be restarted.
For SYSENTER, we have to invoke the instruction from the vdso as the
return address is hardcoded. Accordingly, we can simply replace the
jump in the vdso with an int $0x80 instruction and use the slower
entry point for a post-restart.

This reverts commit f3637a5f2e.
It turns out that this breaks several drivers, one example being OMAP
boards which use the on-board OMAP UARTs and the omap-serial driver that
will not boot to userspace after the commit.
Paul Walmsley reports that enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ reveals 'IRQ
handler type mismatch' errors:
IRQ handler type mismatch for IRQ 74
current handler: serial idle
...
and the reason is that setting IRQF_ONESHOT will now result in those
interrupt handlers having different IRQF flags, and thus being
unsharable. So the commit log in the reverted commit:
"Since it is required for those users and
there is no difference for others it makes sense to add this flag
unconditionally."
is simply not true: there may not be any difference from a "actions at
irq time", but there is a *big* difference wrt this flag testing irq
management (see __setup_irq() in kernel/irq/manage.c).
One solution may be to stop verifying IRQF_ONESHOT in __setup_irq(), but
right now the safe course of action is to revert the change. Let's
revisit this in a later merge window.
