destroyed.

<title>loop: Better discard support for block devices</title>

<content type='text'>
If the backing device for a loop device is itself a block device,
then mirror the "write zeroes" capabilities of the underlying
block device into the loop device. Copy this capability into both
max_write_zeroes_sectors and max_discard_sectors of the loop device.

The reason for this is that REQ_OP_DISCARD on a loop device translates
into blkdev_issue_zeroout(), rather than blkdev_issue_discard(). This
presents a consistent interface for loop devices (that discarded data
is zeroed), regardless of the backing device type of the loop device.
There should be no behavior change for loop devices backed by regular
files.

This change fixes blktest block/003, and removes an extraneous
error print in block/013 when testing on a loop device backed
by a block device that does not support discard.

Properly plumb out EOPNOTSUPP from loop driver operations, which may
get returned when for instance a discard operation is attempted but not
supported by the underlying block device. Before this change, everything
was reported in the log as an I/O error, which is scary and not
helpful in debugging.

__loop_update_dio() can be called as a part of loop_set_fd(), when the
block queue is not yet up and running; avoid freezing the block queue in
that case, since that is an expensive operation.

In general drivers should never mess with partition tables directly.
Unfortunately s390 and loop do for somewhat historic reasons, but they
can use bdev_disk_changed directly instead when we export it as they
satisfy the sanity checks we have in __blkdev_reread_part.

<title>loop: fix no-unmap write-zeroes request behavior</title>

Currently, if the loop device receives a WRITE_ZEROES request, it asks
the underlying filesystem to punch out the range.  This behavior is
correct if unmapping is allowed.  However, a NOUNMAP request means that
the caller doesn't want us to free the storage backing the range, so
punching out the range is incorrect behavior.

To satisfy a NOUNMAP | WRITE_ZEROES request, loop should ask the
underlying filesystem to FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE, which is (according to
the fallocate documentation) required to ensure that the entire range is
backed by real storage, which suffices for our purposes.

The loop driver assumes that if the passed in fd is opened with
O_DIRECT, the caller wants to use direct I/O on the loop device.
However, if the underlying block device has a different block size than
the loop block queue, direct I/O can't be enabled. Instead of requiring
userspace to manually change the blocksize and re-enable direct I/O,
just change the queue block sizes to match, as well as the io_min size.

Enabling Direct I/O with loop devices helps reducing memory usage by
avoiding double caching.  32 bit applications running on 64 bits systems
are currently not able to request direct I/O because is missing from the
lo_compat_ioctl.

This patch fixes the compatibility issue mentioned above by exporting
LOOP_SET_DIRECT_IO as additional lo_compat_ioctl() entry.
The input argument for this ioctl is a single long converted to a 1-bit
boolean, so compatibility is preserved.
