CONFIG_IOSCHED_DEADLINE was removed with
commit f382fb0bcef4 ("block: remove legacy IO schedulers")

and setting of the scheduler was removed with
commit a5fd8ddce2af ("s390/dasd: remove setting of scheduler from driver").

So get rid of the select.

Pull libnvdimm and dax updates from Dan Williams:
 "There were multiple touches outside of drivers/nvdimm/ this round to
  add cross arch compatibility to the devm_memremap_pages() interface,
  enhance numa information for persistent memory ranges, and add a
  zero_page_range() dax operation.

  This cycle I switched from the patchwork api to Konstantin's b4 script
  for collecting tags (from x86, PowerPC, filesystem, and device-mapper
  folks), and everything looks to have gone ok there. This has all
  appeared in -next with no reported issues.

  Summary:

   - Add support for region alignment configuration and enforcement to
     fix compatibility across architectures and PowerPC page size
     configurations.

   - Introduce 'zero_page_range' as a dax operation. This facilitates
     filesystem-dax operation without a block-device.

   - Introduce phys_to_target_node() to facilitate drivers that want to
     know resulting numa node if a given reserved address range was
     onlined.

   - Advertise a persistence-domain for of_pmem and papr_scm. The
     persistence domain indicates where cpu-store cycles need to reach
     in the platform-memory subsystem before the platform will consider
     them power-fail protected.

   - Promote numa_map_to_online_node() to a cross-kernel generic
     facility.

   - Save x86 numa information to allow for node-id lookups for reserved
     memory ranges, deploy that capability for the e820-pmem driver.

   - Pick up some miscellaneous minor fixes, that missed v5.6-final,
     including a some smatch reports in the ioctl path and some unit
     test compilation fixups.

   - Fixup some flexible-array declarations"

<title>dax: Move mandatory -&gt;zero_page_range() check in alloc_dax()</title>

zero_page_range() dax operation is mandatory for dax devices. Right now
that check happens in dax_zero_page_range() function. Dan thinks that's
too late and its better to do the check earlier in alloc_dax().

I also modified alloc_dax() to return pointer with error code in it in
case of failure. Right now it returns NULL and caller assumes failure
happened due to -ENOMEM. But with this -&gt;zero_page_range() check, I
need to return -EINVAL instead.

Current make_request based drivers use either blk_alloc_queue_node or
blk_alloc_queue to allocate a queue, and then set up the make_request_fn
function pointer and a few parameters using the blk_queue_make_request
helper.  Simplify this by passing the make_request pointer to
blk_alloc_queue, and while at it merge the _node variant into the main
helper by always passing a node_id, and remove the superfluous gfp_mask
parameter.  A lower-level __blk_alloc_queue is kept for the blk-mq case.

Devices are formatted in multiple of tracks.
For an Extent Space Efficient (ESE) volume we get errors when accessing
unformatted tracks. In this case the driver either formats the track on
the flight for write requests or returns zero data for read requests.

In case a request spans multiple tracks, the indication of an unformatted
track presented for the first track is incorrectly applied to all tracks
covered by the request. As a result, tracks containing data will be handled
as empty, resulting in zero data being returned on read, or overwriting
existing data with zero on write.

Fix by determining the track that gets the NRF error.
For write requests only format the track that is surely not formatted.
For Read requests all tracks before have returned valid data and should not
be touched.
All tracks after the unformatted track might be formatted or not. Those are
returned to the blocklayer to build a new request.

When using alias devices there is a chance that multiple write requests
trigger a format of the same track which might lead to data loss. Ensure
that a track is formatted only once by maintaining a list of currently
processed tracks.
