Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "The big change here is obviously the revert of the pktcdvd driver
  removal. Outside of that, just minor tweaks. In detail:

   - Re-instate the pktcdvd driver, which necessitates adding back
     bio_copy_data_iter() and the fops-&gt;devnode() hook for now (me)

   - Fix for splitting of a bio marked as NOWAIT, causing either nowait
     reads or writes to error with EAGAIN even if parts of the IO
     completed (me)

   - Fix for ublk, punting management commands to io-wq as they can all
     easily block for extended periods of time (Ming)

   - Removal of SRCU dependency for the block layer (Paul)"

This reverts commit f40eb99897af665f11858dd7b56edcb62c3f3c67.

There are apparently still users out there of this driver. While we'd
love to remove it to ease the maintenance burden, let's reinstate it
for now until better (userspace) solutions can be developed.

Most of control command handlers may sleep, so return -EAGAIN in case
of IO_URING_F_NONBLOCK to defer the handling into io wq context.

The virtblk_map_data() function returns negative error codes, however, the
'nents' field of vbr-&gt;sg_table is an unsigned int, which causes the error
handling not to work correctly.

<title>treewide: Convert del_timer*() to timer_shutdown*()</title>

<id>292a089d78d3e2f7944e60bb897c977785a321e3</id>
<content type='text'>
Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are
shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added
called "shutdown".  After a timer is set to this state, then it can no
longer be re-armed.

The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where
del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the
object holding the timer is freed.  It also ignores any locations where
the timer-&gt;function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(),
as that is not considered a "trivial" case.

This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following
commands:

    $ cat timer.cocci
    @@
    expression ptr, slab;
    identifier timer, rfield;
    @@
    (
    -       del_timer(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    +       timer_shutdown(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    |
    -       del_timer_sync(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    +       timer_shutdown_sync(&amp;ptr-&gt;timer);
    )
      ... when strict
          when != ptr-&gt;timer
    (

    |
            kmem_cache_free(slab, ptr);
    |
            kfree(ptr);
    )
