Use struct block_device to lookup partitions on a disk.  This removes
all usage of struct hd_struct from the I/O path.

<title>block: allocate struct hd_struct as part of struct bdev_inode</title>

Allocate hd_struct together with struct block_device to pre-load
the lifetime rule changes in preparation of merging the two structures.

Note that part0 was previously embedded into struct gendisk, but is
a separate allocation now, and already points to the block_device instead
of the hd_struct.  The lifetime of struct gendisk is still controlled by
the struct device embedded in the part0 hd_struct.

DRBD keeps a block device open just to get and set the capacity from
it.  Switch to primarily using the disk capacity as intended by the
block layer, and sync it to the bdev using revalidate_disk_size.

generic_make_request has always been very confusingly misnamed, so rename
it to submit_bio_noacct to make it clear that it is submit_bio minus
accounting and a few checks.

<title>drbd: fifo_alloc() should use struct_size</title>

<content type='text'>
Switching to struct_size for the allocation in fifo_alloc avoids
hard-coding the type of fifo_buffer.values in fifo_alloc. It also
provides overflow protection; to avoid pessimistic code being
generated by the compiler as a result, this patch also switches
fifo_size to unsigned, propagating the change as appropriate.

<title>crypto: shash - remove shash_desc::flags</title>

<id>877b5691f27a1aec0d9b53095a323e45c30069e2</id>
<content type='text'>
The flags field in 'struct shash_desc' never actually does anything.
The only ostensibly supported flag is CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_SLEEP.
However, no shash algorithm ever sleeps, making this flag a no-op.

With this being the case, inevitably some users who can't sleep wrongly
pass MAY_SLEEP.  These would all need to be fixed if any shash algorithm
actually started sleeping.  For example, the shash_ahash_*() functions,
which wrap a shash algorithm with the ahash API, pass through MAY_SLEEP
from the ahash API to the shash API.  However, the shash functions are
called under kmap_atomic(), so actually they're assumed to never sleep.

Even if it turns out that some users do need preemption points while
hashing large buffers, we could easily provide a helper function
crypto_shash_update_large() which divides the data into smaller chunks
and calls crypto_shash_update() and cond_resched() for each chunk.  It's
not necessary to have a flag in 'struct shash_desc', nor is it necessary
to make individual shash algorithms aware of this at all.

Therefore, remove shash_desc::flags, and document that the
crypto_shash_*() functions can be called from any context.
