drbd_device_work is a work item that has a reference to a device,
while drbd_work is a more generic work item that does not carry
a reference to a device.

All callbacks get a pointer to a drbd_work instance, those callbacks
that expect a drbd_device_work use the container_of macro to get it.

<title>drbd: Introduce "peer_device" object between "device" and "connection"</title>

<content type='text'>
In a setup where a device (aka volume) can replicate to multiple peers and one
connection can be shared between multiple devices, we need separate objects to
represent devices on peer nodes and network connections.

As a first step to introduce multiple connections per device, give each
drbd_device object a single drbd_peer_device object which connects it to a
drbd_connection object.

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames
things.

We completed empty flushes (blkdev_issue_flush()) with IO error
if we lost the local disk, even if we still have an established
replication link to a healthy remote disk.

Fix this to only report errors to upper layers,
if neither local nor remote data is reachable.

<title>drbd: fix potential protocol error and resulting disconnect/reconnect</title>

<id>2681f7f6ce6c7416eb619d0fb19422bcc68bd9e1</id>
<content type='text'>
When we notice a disk failure on the receiving side,
we stop sending it new incoming writes.

Depending on exact timing of various events, the same transfer log epoch
could end up containing both replicated (before we noticed the failure)
and local-only requests (after we noticed the failure).

The sanity checks in tl_release(), called when receiving a
P_BARRIER_ACK, check that the ack'ed transfer log epoch matches
the expected epoch, and the number of contained writes matches
the number of ack'ed writes.

In this case, they counted both replicated and local-only writes,
but the peer only acknowledges those it has seen.  We get a mismatch,
resulting in a protocol error and disconnect/reconnect cycle.

Messages logged are
  "BAD! BarrierAck #%u received with n_writes=%u, expected n_writes=%u!\n"

A similar issue can also be triggered when starting a resync while
having a healthy replication link, by invalidating one side, forcing a
full sync, or attaching to a diskless node.

Fix this by closing the current epoch if the state changes in a way
that would cause the replication intent of the next write.

Epochs now contain either only non-replicated,
or only replicated writes.

When we notice a disk failure on the receiving side,
we stop sending it new incoming writes.

Depending on exact timing of various events, the same transfer log epoch
could end up containing both replicated (before we noticed the failure)
and local-only requests (after we noticed the failure).

The sanity checks in tl_release(), called when receiving a
P_BARRIER_ACK, check that the ack'ed transfer log epoch matches
the expected epoch, and the number of contained writes matches
the number of ack'ed writes.

In this case, they counted both replicated and local-only writes,
but the peer only acknowledges those it has seen.  We get a mismatch,
resulting in a protocol error and disconnect/reconnect cycle.

Messages logged are
  "BAD! BarrierAck #%u received with n_writes=%u, expected n_writes=%u!\n"

To avoid confusion with REQ_DISCARD aka TRIM, rename our
"discard concurrent write acks" from P_DISCARD_WRITE to P_SUPERSEDED.

At the same time, rename the drbd request event DISCARD_WRITE
to CONFLICT_RESOLVED. It already triggers both successful completion
or restart of the request, depending on our RQ_POSTPONED flag.
