We just need to make sure that an unplug event wakes up the md
thread, which is exactly what mddev_check_plugged does.

Also remove some plug-related code that is no longer needed.

md/raid submits a lot of IO from the various raid threads.
So adding start/finish plug calls to those so that some
plugging happens.

<title>block: Require subsystems to explicitly allocate bio_set integrity mempool</title>

MD and DM create a new bio_set for every metadevice. Each bio_set has an
integrity mempool attached regardless of whether the metadevice is
capable of passing integrity metadata. This is a waste of memory.

Instead we defer the allocation decision to MD and DM since we know at
metadevice creation time whether integrity passthrough is needed or not.

Automatic integrity mempool allocation can then be removed from
bioset_create() and we make an explicit integrity allocation for the
fs_bio_set.

Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging,
and delay users have been converted to use the new API for that.
So lets kill off the old plugging along with aops-&gt;sync_page().

<title>md: avoid spinlock problem in blk_throtl_exit</title>

blk_throtl_exit assumes that -&gt;queue_lock still exists,
so make sure that it does.
To do this, we stop redirecting -&gt;queue_lock to conf-&gt;device_lock
and leave it pointing where it is initialised - __queue_lock.

As the blk_plug functions check the -&gt;queue_lock is held, we now
take that spin_lock explicitly around the plug functions.  We don't
need the locking, just the warning removal.

This is needed for any kernel with the blk_throtl code, which is
which is 2.6.37 and later.

<title>FIX: md: process hangs at wait_barrier after 0-&gt;10 takeover</title>

<id>02214dc5461c36da26a34014cab4e1bb484edba2</id>
<content type='text'>
Following symptoms were observed:
1. After raid0-&gt;raid10 takeover operation we have array with 2
missing disks.
When we add disk for rebuild, recovery process starts as expected
but it does not finish- it stops at about 90%, md126_resync process
hangs in "D" state.
2. Similar behavior is when we have mounted raid0 array and we
execute takeover to raid10. After this when we try to unmount array-
it causes process umount hangs in "D"

In scenarios above processes hang at the same function- wait_barrier
in raid10.c.
Process waits in macro "wait_event_lock_irq" until the
"!conf-&gt;barrier" condition will be true.
In scenarios above it never happens.

Reason was that at the end of level_store, after calling pers-&gt;run,
we call mddev_resume. This calls pers-&gt;quiesce(mddev, 0) with
RAID10, that calls lower_barrier.
However raise_barrier hadn't been called on that 'conf' yet,
so conf-&gt;barrier becomes negative, which is bad.

This patch introduces setting conf-&gt;barrier=1 after takeover
operation. It prevents to become barrier negative after call
lower_barrier().

Add new parameter to 'sync_page_io'.

The new parameter allows us to distinguish between metadata and data
operations.  This becomes important later when we add the ability to
use separate devices for data and metadata.
