Simple helper functions to quiesce the request queue. These are
currently only used for switching IO schedulers on-the-fly, but
we can use them to properly switch IO accounting on and off as well.

By default, CFQ will anticipate more IO from a given io context if the
previously completed IO was sync. This used to be fine, since the only
sync IO was reads and O_DIRECT writes. But with more "normal" sync writes
being used now, we don't want to anticipate for those.
Add a bio/request flag that informs the IO scheduler that this is a sync
request that we should not idle for. Introduce WRITE_ODIRECT specifically
for O_DIRECT writes, and make sure that the other sync writes set this
flag.

bsg submits REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC so the right check is max_hw_sectors.
But I've removed this check because right after, bsg proceeds with

Put a WARN_ON in __blk_put_request if it is about to
leak bio(s). This is a serious bug that can happen in error

at sg_io() while at it.

Currently inherited from sg.c bsg will submit asynchronous request
at the head-of-the-queue, (using "at_head" set in the call to
blk_execute_rq_nowait()). This is bad in situation where the queues
are full, requests will execute out of order, and can cause
starvation of the first submitted requests.
The sg_io_v4->flags member is used and a bit is allocated to denote the
Q_AT_TAIL. Zero is to queue at_head as before, to be compatible with old
code at the write/read path. SG_IO code path behavior was changed so to
be the same as write/read behavior. SG_IO was very rarely used and breaking
compatibility with it is OK at this stage.
sg_io_hdr at sg.h also has a flags member and uses 3 bits from the first
nibble and one bit from the last nibble. Even though none of these bits
are supported by bsg, The second nibble is allocated for use by bsg. Just
in case.

Commit 1e42807918d17e8c93bf14fbb74be84b141334c1 introduced a bug where we
don't get front/back segment sizes in the bio in blk_recount_segments().
Fix this by tracking the back bio as well as the front bio in
__blk_recalc_rq_segments(), this also cleans up the interface by getting
rid of the segment size pointer passing.

Hi Tejun,
it looks like your commit:
block: don't depend on consecutive minor space
f331c0296f2a9fee0d396a70598b954062603015
broke a particular case for booting from partitioned md/raid devices.
That is the second time this has been broken recently. The previous
time was fixed by
block: do_mounts - accept root=<non-existant partition>
30f2f0eb4bd2c43d10a8b0d872c6e5ad8f31c9a0
Because the data isn't available when an md device is first created
(we add disks and set it up after creation), the initial partition
scan finds nothing. It is not until the device is opened that
another partition scan happens and finds something.
So at the point where the kernel parameter "root=/dev/md_d0p1" is
being parsed, md_d0 exists, but md_d0p1 does not.
However if we let blk_lookup_devt return the correct device number
even though the device doesn't exist, then the attempt to mount it
will successfully find the partition.
I have tried in the past to find a way to get the partition table to
be read as soon as the array is assembled but that proved impossible
(at the time). I don't remember the details, and could possibly
revisit it. However it would be really nice if blk_lookup_devt
could be adjusted to again accept non existant partitions.

When submitting requests via SG_IO, which does a sync io, a
bsg_command is not allocated. So an in-Kernel sense_buffer was not
set. However when calling blk_execute_rq() with no sense buffer
one is provided from the stack. Now bsg at blk_complete_sgv4_hdr_rq()
would check if rq->sense_len and a sense was requested by sg_io_v4
the rq->sense was copy_user() back, but by now it is already mangled
stack memory.
I have fixed that by forcing a sense_buffer when calling bsg_map_hdr().
The bsg_command->sense is provided in the write/read path like before,
and on-the-stack buffer is provided when doing SG_IO.
I have also fixed a dprintk message to print rq->errors in hex because
of the scsi bit-field use of this member. For other block devices it
does not matter anyway.

Impact: bugfix and cleanup
Some callsites were returning either TRACE_ITER_PARTIAL_LINE if the
trace_seq routines (trace_seq_printf, etc) returned 0 meaning its buffer
was full, or zero otherwise.
But...
/* Return values for print_line callback */
enum print_line_t {
TRACE_TYPE_PARTIAL_LINE = 0, /* Retry after flushing the seq */
TRACE_TYPE_HANDLED = 1,
TRACE_TYPE_UNHANDLED = 2 /* Relay to other output functions */
};
In other cases the return value was not being relayed at all.
Most of the time it didn't hurt because the page wasn't get filled, but
for correctness sake, handle the return values everywhere.

Some initial probe requests don't have disk->queue mapped yet, so we
can't rely on a non-NULL queue in blk_queue_io_stat(). Wrap it in
blk_do_io_stat().

This patch adds the ability to pre-empt an ongoing BE timeslice when a RT
request is waiting for the current timeslice to complete. This reduces the
wait time to disk for RT requests from an upper bound of 4 (current value
of cfq_quantum) to 1 disk request.
Applied Jens' suggeested changes to avoid the rb lookup and use !cfq_class_rt()
and retested.
Latency(secs) for the RT task when doing sequential reads from 10G file.
| only RT | RT + BE | RT + BE + this patch
small (512 byte) reads | 143 | 163 | 145
large (1Mb) reads | 142 | 158 | 146
