Some drivers(NVMe, SCSI) need to call quiesce and unquiesce in pair, but it
is hard to switch to this style, so these drivers need one atomic flag for
helping to balance quiesce and unquiesce.

When quiesce is in-progress, the driver still needs to wait until
the quiesce is done, so add API of blk_mq_wait_quiesce_done() for
these drivers.

<title>blk-crypto: rename blk_keyslot_manager to blk_crypto_profile</title>

blk_keyslot_manager is misnamed because it doesn't necessarily manage
keyslots.  It actually does several different things:

  - Contains the crypto capabilities of the device.

  - Provides functions to control the inline encryption hardware.
    Originally these were just for programming/evicting keyslots;
    however, new functionality (hardware-wrapped keys) will require new
    functions here which are unrelated to keyslots.  Moreover,
    device-mapper devices already (ab)use "keyslot_evict" to pass key
    eviction requests to their underlying devices even though
    device-mapper devices don't have any keyslots themselves (so it
    really should be "evict_key", not "keyslot_evict").

  - Sometimes (but not always!) it manages keyslots.  Originally it
    always did, but device-mapper devices don't have keyslots
    themselves, so they use a "passthrough keyslot manager" which
    doesn't actually manage keyslots.  This hack works, but the
    terminology is unnatural.  Also, some hardware doesn't have keyslots
    and thus also uses a "passthrough keyslot manager" (support for such
    hardware is yet to be upstreamed, but it will happen eventually).

Let's stop having keyslot managers which don't actually manage keyslots.
Instead, rename blk_keyslot_manager to blk_crypto_profile.

This is a fairly big change, since for consistency it also has to update
keyslot manager-related function names, variable names, and comments --
not just the actual struct name.  However it's still a fairly
straightforward change, as it doesn't change any actual functionality.

This is in the fast path of driver issue or completion, and it's a single
array index operation. Move it inline to avoid a function call for it.

This does mean making struct blk_mq_tags block layer public, but there's
not really much in there.

struct io_comp_batch contains a list head and a completion handler, which
will allow completions to more effciently completed batches of IO.

For now, no functional changes in this patch, we just define the
io_comp_batch structure and add the argument to the file_operations iopoll
handler.

Just like the blk_mq_ctx counterparts, we've got a bunch of counters
in here that are only for debugfs and are of questionnable value. They
are:

- dispatched, index of how many requests were dispatched in one go

- poll_{considered,invoked,success}, which track poll sucess rates. We're
  confident in the iopoll implementation at this point, don't bother
  tracking these.

As a bonus, this shrinks each hardware queue from 576 bytes to 512 bytes,
dropping a whole cacheline.
