Replace bi_error with a new bi_status to allow for a clear conversion.
Note that device mapper overloaded bi_error with a private value, which
we'll have to keep arround at least for now and thus propagate to a
proper blk_status_t value.

It seems like DRBD assumes its on the wire TRIM request always zeroes data.
Use that fact to implement REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES.

<title>block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opf</title>

Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio-&gt;bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.

No intended functional changes in this commit.

<title>block: get rid of bio_rw and READA</title>

These two are confusing leftover of the old world order, combining
values of the REQ_OP_ and REQ_ namespaces.  For callers that don't
special case we mostly just replace bi_rw with bio_data_dir or
op_is_write, except for the few cases where a switch over the REQ_OP_
values makes more sense.  Any check for READA is replaced with an
explicit check for REQ_RAHEAD.  Also remove the READA alias for
REQ_RAHEAD.

This contains various cosmetic fixes ranging from simple typos to
const-ifying, and using booleans properly.

Original commit messages from Fabian's patch set:
drbd: debugfs: constify drbd_version_fops
drbd: use seq_put instead of seq_print where possible
drbd: include linux/uaccess.h instead of asm/uaccess.h
drbd: use const char * const for drbd strings
drbd: kerneldoc warning fix in w_e_end_data_req()
drbd: use unsigned for one bit fields
drbd: use bool for peer is_ states
drbd: fix typo
drbd: use | for bitmask combination
drbd: use true/false for bool
drbd: fix drbd_bm_init() comments
drbd: introduce peer state union
drbd: fix maybe_pull_ahead() locking comments
drbd: use bool for growing
drbd: remove redundant declarations

We will support WRITE_SAME, if
 * all peers support WRITE_SAME (both in kernel and DRBD version),
 * all peer devices support WRITE_SAME
 * logical_block_size is identical on all peers.

We may at some point introduce a fallback on the receiving side
for devices/kernels that do not support WRITE_SAME,
by open-coding a submit loop. But not yet.

<title>drbd: introduce unfence-peer handler</title>

When resync is finished, we already call the "after-resync-target"
handler (on the former sync target, obviously), once per volume.

Paired with the before-resync-target handler, you can create snapshots,
before the resync causes the volumes to become inconsistent,
and discard those snapshots again, once they are no longer needed.

It was also overloaded to be paired with the "fence-peer" handler,
to "unfence" once the volumes are up-to-date and known good.

This has some disadvantages, though: we call "fence-peer" for the whole
connection (once for the group of volumes), but would call unfence as
side-effect of after-resync-target once for each volume.

Also, we fence on a (current, or about to become) Primary,
which will later become the sync-source.

Calling unfence only as a side effect of the after-resync-target
handler opens a race window, between a new fence on the Primary
(SyncTarget) and the unfence on the SyncTarget, which is difficult to
close without some kind of "cluster wide lock" in those handlers.

We would not need those handlers if we could still communicate.
Which makes trying to aquire a cluster wide lock from those handlers
seem like a very bad idea.

This introduces the "unfence-peer" handler, which will be called
per connection (once for the group of volumes), just like the fence
handler, only once all volumes are back in sync, and on the SyncSource.

Which is expected to be the node that previously called "fence", the
node that is currently allowed to be Primary, and thus the only node
that could trigger a new "fence" that could race with this unfence.

Which makes us not need any cluster wide synchronization here,
serializing two scripts running on the same node is trivial.
