Pull ceph updates from Ilya Dryomov:
 "Things have been very quiet on the rbd side, as work continues on the
  big ticket items slated for the next merge window.

  On the CephFS side we have a large number of cap handling
  improvements, a fix for our long-standing abuse of -&gt;journal_info in
  ceph_readpages() and yet another dentry pointer management patch"

* tag 'ceph-for-4.16-rc1' of git://github.com/ceph/ceph-client:
  ceph: improving efficiency of syncfs
  libceph: check kstrndup() return value
  ceph: try to allocate enough memory for reserved caps
  ceph: fix race of queuing delayed caps
  ceph: delete unreachable code in ceph_check_caps()
  ceph: limit rate of cap import/export error messages
  ceph: fix incorrect snaprealm when adding caps
  ceph: fix un-balanced fsc-&gt;writeback_count update
  ceph: track read contexts in ceph_file_info
  ceph: avoid dereferencing invalid pointer during cached readdir
  ceph: use atomic_t for ceph_inode_info::i_shared_gen
  ceph: cleanup traceless reply handling for rename
  ceph: voluntarily drop Fx cap for readdir request
  ceph: properly drop caps for setattr request
  ceph: voluntarily drop Lx cap for link/rename requests

   - skd fix from Arnd, fixing a build error dependent on sla allocator

   - Don't re-set a bit on the buffer_head flags, if it's already set.
     This can cause scalability concerns on bigger machines and
     workloads. From Kemi Wang.

   - Add BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE return value to blk-mq, allowing us to
     distuingish between a local (device related) resource starvation

skd includes slab_def.h to get access to the slab cache object size.
However, including this header breaks when we use SLUB or SLOB instead of
the SLAB allocator, since the structure layout is completely different,
as shown by this warning when we build this driver in one of the invalid
configurations with link-time optimizations enabled:

include/linux/slab.h:715:0: error: type of 'kmem_cache_size' does not match original declaration [-Werror=lto-type-mismatch]

This removes the header inclusion and instead uses the kmem_cache_size()

<title>virtio_blk: print capacity at probe time</title>

Print the capacity of the block device when the driver is probed.  Many
users expect this since SCSI disks (sd) do it.  Moreover, kernel dmesg
output is the primary source of troubleshooting information so it's
helpful to include the disk size there.

The capacity is already printed by virtio_blk when a resize event
occurs.  Extract the code and reuse it from virtblk_probe().

This patch also adds the block device name to the message so it can be
correlated with a specific device:

  virtio_blk virtio0: [vda] 20971520 512-byte logical blocks (10.7 GB/10.0 GiB)

<title>blk-mq: introduce BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE</title>

<content type='text'>
This status is returned from driver to block layer if device related
resource is unavailable, but driver can guarantee that IO dispatch
will be triggered in future when the resource is available.

Convert some drivers to return BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE.  Also, if driver
returns BLK_STS_RESOURCE and SCHED_RESTART is set, rerun queue after
a delay (BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE) to avoid IO stalls.  BLK_MQ_DELAY_QUEUE is
3 ms because both scsi-mq and nvmefc are using that magic value.

If a driver can make sure there is in-flight IO, it is safe to return
BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE because:

1) If all in-flight IOs complete before examining SCHED_RESTART in
blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list(), SCHED_RESTART must be cleared, so queue
is run immediately in this case by blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list();

2) if there is any in-flight IO after/when examining SCHED_RESTART
in blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list():
- if SCHED_RESTART isn't set, queue is run immediately as handled in 1)
- otherwise, this request will be dispatched after any in-flight IO is
  completed via blk_mq_sched_restart()

3) if SCHED_RESTART is set concurently in context because of
BLK_STS_RESOURCE, blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue() will cover the above two
cases and make sure IO hang can be avoided.

One invariant is that queue will be rerun if SCHED_RESTART is set.

Pull kern_recvmsg reduction from Al Viro:
 "kernel_recvmsg() is a set_fs()-using wrapper for sock_recvmsg(). In
  all but one case that is not needed - use of ITER_KVEC for -&gt;msg_iter
  takes care of the data and does not care about set_fs(). The only
  exception is svc_udp_recvfrom() where we want cmsg to be store into
  kernel object; everything else can just use sock_recvmsg() and be done
  with that.

  A followup converting svc_udp_recvfrom() away from set_fs() (and
  killing kernel_recvmsg() off) is *NOT* in here - I'd like to hear what
  netdev folks think of the approach proposed in that followup)"

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the main pull request for block IO related changes for the
  4.16 kernel. Nothing major in this pull request, but a good amount of
  improvements and fixes all over the map. This contains:

   - BFQ improvements, fixes, and cleanups from Angelo, Chiara, and
     Paolo.

   - Support for SMR zones for deadline and mq-deadline from Damien and
     Christoph.

   - Set of fixes for bcache by way of Michael Lyle, including fixes
     from himself, Kent, Rui, Tang, and Coly.

   - Series from Matias for lightnvm with fixes from Hans Holmberg,
     Javier, and Matias. Mostly centered around pblk, and the removing
     rrpc 1.2 in preparation for supporting 2.0.

   - A couple of NVMe pull requests from Christoph. Nothing major in
     here, just fixes and cleanups, and support for command tracing from
     Johannes.

   - Support for blk-throttle for tracking reads and writes separately.
     From Joseph Qi. A few cleanups/fixes also for blk-throttle from
     Weiping.

   - Series from Mike Snitzer that enables dm to register its queue more
     logically, something that's alwways been problematic on dm since
     it's a stacked device.

   - Series from Ming cleaning up some of the bio accessor use, in
     preparation for supporting multipage bvecs.

   - Various fixes from Ming closing up holes around queue mapping and
     quiescing.

   - BSD partition fix from Richard Narron, fixing a problem where we
     can't mount newer (10/11) FreeBSD partitions.

   - Series from Tejun reworking blk-mq timeout handling. The previous
     scheme relied on atomic bits, but it had races where we would think
     a request had timed out if it to reused at the wrong time.

   - null_blk now supports faking timeouts, to enable us to better
     exercise and test that functionality separately. From me.

   - Kill the separate atomic poll bit in the request struct. After
     this, we don't use the atomic bits on blk-mq anymore at all. From
     me.

   - sgl_alloc/free helpers from Bart.

   - Heavily contended tag case scalability improvement from me.

   - Various little fixes and cleanups from Arnd, Bart, Corentin,
     Douglas, Eryu, Goldwyn, and myself"
