Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "Bigger than usual at this time, mostly due to the O_DIRECT corruption
  issue and the fact that I was on vacation last week. This contains:

   - NVMe pull request with two fixes for the FC code, and two target
     fixes (Christoph)

   - a DIF bio reset iteration fix (Greg Edwards)

   - two nbd reply and requeue fixes (Josef)

   - SCSI timeout fixup (Keith)

   - a small series that fixes an issue with bio_iov_iter_get_pages(),
     which ended up causing corruption for larger sized O_DIRECT writes
     that ended up racing with buffered writes (Martin Wilck)"

* tag 'for-linus-20180727' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
  block: reset bi_iter.bi_done after splitting bio
  block: bio_iov_iter_get_pages: pin more pages for multi-segment IOs
  blkdev: __blkdev_direct_IO_simple: fix leak in error case
  block: bio_iov_iter_get_pages: fix size of last iovec
  nvmet: only check for filebacking on -ENOTBLK
  nvmet: fixup crash on NULL device path
  scsi: set timed out out mq requests to complete
  blk-mq: export setting request completion state
  nvme: if_ready checks to fail io to deleting controller
  nvmet-fc: fix target sgl list on large transfers
  nbd: handle unexpected replies better
  nbd: don't requeue the same request twice.

The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "This cycle was was not something I ever want to repeat as there were
  several late changes that have only now just settled.

  Half of the branch up to commit d2c997c0f145 ("fs, dax: use
  page-&gt;mapping to warn...") have been in -next for several releases.
  The of_pmem driver and the address range scrub rework were late
  arrivals, and the dax work was scaled back at the last moment.

  The of_pmem driver missed a previous merge window due to an oversight.
  A sense of obligation to rectify that miss is why it is included for
  4.17. It has acks from PowerPC folks. Stephen reported a build failure
  that only occurs when merging it with your latest tree, for now I have
  fixed that up by disabling modular builds of of_pmem. A test merge
  with your tree has received a build success report from the 0day robot
  over 156 configs.

  An initial version of the ARS rework was submitted before the merge
  window. It is self contained to libnvdimm, a net code reduction, and
  passing all unit tests.

  The filesystem-dax changes are based on the wait_var_event()
  functionality from tip/sched/core. However, late review feedback
  showed that those changes regressed truncate performance to a large
  degree. The branch was rewound to drop the truncate behavior change
  and now only includes preparation patches and cleanups (with full acks
  and reviews). The finalization of this dax-dma-vs-trnucate work will
  need to wait for 4.18.

  Summary:

   - A rework of the filesytem-dax implementation provides for detection
     of unmap operations (truncate / hole punch) colliding with
     in-progress device-DMA. A fix for these collisions remains a
     work-in-progress pending resolution of truncate latency and
     starvation regressions.

   - The of_pmem driver expands the users of libnvdimm outside of x86
     and ACPI to describe an implementation of persistent memory on
     PowerPC with Open Firmware / Device tree.

   - Address Range Scrub (ARS) handling is completely rewritten to
     account for the fact that ARS may run for 100s of seconds and there
     is no platform defined way to cancel it. ARS will now no longer
     block namespace initialization.

   - The NVDIMM Namespace Label implementation is updated to handle
     label areas as small as 1K, down from 128K.

   - Miscellaneous cleanups and updates to unit test infrastructure"

<title>fs: don't flush pagecache when expanding block device</title>

When changing the size of a block device, its all caches are freed.
It's necessary on shrinking to prevent spurious I/Os to the disappeared
region.  However, on expanding, such kind of I/Os doesn't happen.

Similar things can be considered for btrfs filesystem resize and
resize2fs, but they are designed not to drop caches when expanding.
Therefore this patch removes unnecessary cache drop.
