Pull device mapper fixes from Mike Snitzer:

 - a couple DM raid and DM mirror fixes

 - a couple .request_fn request-based DM NULL pointer fixes

 - a fix for a DM target reference count leak, on target load error,
   that prevented associated DM target kernel module(s) from being
   removed

dm: free io_barrier after blk_cleanup_queue call

2016-10-18T16:02:08+00:00

dm_old_request_fn() has paths that access md->io_barrier.  The party
destroying io_barrier should ensure that no future execution of
dm_old_request_fn() is possible.  Move io_barrier destruction to below
blk_cleanup_queue() to ensure this and avoid a NULL pointer crash during
request-based DM device shutdown.

kthread: kthread worker API cleanup

2016-10-11T22:06:33+00:00

A good practice is to prefix the names of functions by the name
of the subsystem.

The kthread worker API is a mix of classic kthreads and workqueues.  Each
worker has a dedicated kthread.  It runs a generic function that process
queued works.  It is implemented as part of the kthread subsystem.

This patch renames the existing kthread worker API to use
the corresponding name from the workqueues API prefixed by
kthread_:

__init_kthread_worker()		-> __kthread_init_worker()
init_kthread_worker()		-> kthread_init_worker()
init_kthread_work()		-> kthread_init_work()
insert_kthread_work()		-> kthread_insert_work()
queue_kthread_work()		-> kthread_queue_work()
flush_kthread_work()		-> kthread_flush_work()
flush_kthread_worker()		-> kthread_flush_worker()

Note that the names of DEFINE_KTHREAD_WORK*() macros stay
as they are. It is common that the "DEFINE_" prefix has
precedence over the subsystem names.

Note that INIT() macros and init() functions use different
naming scheme. There is no good solution. There are several
reasons for this solution:

  + "init" in the function names stands for the verb "initialize"
    aka "initialize worker". While "INIT" in the macro names
    stands for the noun "INITIALIZER" aka "worker initializer".

  + INIT() macros are used only in DEFINE() macros

  + init() functions are used close to the other kthread()
    functions. It looks much better if all the functions
    use the same scheme.

  + There will be also kthread_destroy_worker() that will
    be used close to kthread_cancel_work(). It is related
    to the init() function. Again it looks better if all
    functions use the same naming scheme.

  + there are several precedents for such init() function
    names, e.g. amd_iommu_init_device(), free_area_init_node(),
    jump_label_init_type(),  regmap_init_mmio_clk(),

  + It is not an argument but it was inconsistent even before.

dm: convert wait loops to use autoremove_wake_function()

2016-09-14T17:56:38+00:00

Use autoremove_wake_function() instead of default_wake_function()
to make the dm wait loops more similar to other wait loops in the
kernel.  This patch does not change any functionality.

dm: use signal_pending_state() in dm_wait_for_completion()

2016-09-14T17:56:38+00:00

Use signal_pending_state() instead of open-coding it.  This patch does
not change any functionality but makes it possible to pass TASK_KILLABLE
as the second argument of dm_wait_for_completion().  See also commit
16882c1e962b ("sched: fix TASK_WAKEKILL vs SIGKILL race").

dm: rename task state function arguments

2016-09-14T17:56:38+00:00

Rename 'interruptible' into 'task_state' to make it clear that this
argument is a task state instead of a boolean.  Also, change type from
int to long.

dm: mark request_queue dead before destroying the DM device

This avoids that new requests are queued while __dm_destroy() is in

dm: return correct error code in dm_resume()'s retry loop

2016-09-14T17:56:38+00:00

dm_resume() will return success (0) rather than -EINVAL if
!dm_suspended_md() upon retry within dm_resume().

Reset the error code at the start of dm_resume()'s retry loop.
Also, remove a useless assignment at the end of dm_resume().

block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opf

2016-08-07T20:41:02+00:00

Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio->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.
