__bitwise__ used to mean "yes, please enable sparse checks
unconditionally", but now that we dropped __CHECK_ENDIAN__
__bitwise is exactly the same.
There aren't many users, replace it by __bitwise everywhere.

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:

 - various fixes and improvements to request-based DM and DM multipath

 - some locking improvements in DM bufio

 - add Kconfig option to disable the DM block manager's extra locking
   which mainly serves as a developer tool

 - a few bug fixes to DM's persistent-data

 - a couple changes to prepare for multipage biovec support in the block
   layer

 - various improvements and cleanups in the DM core, DM cache, DM raid
   and DM crypt

 - add ability to have DM crypt use keys from the kernel key retention
   service

 - add a new "error_writes" feature to the DM flakey target, reads are
   left unchanged in this mode

Recent dm-flakey fixes, to have reads error out during the "down"
interval, made it so that the previous read behaviour is no longer
available.

It is useful to have reads complete like normal but have writes error
out, so make it possible again with a new "error_writes" feature.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous
  release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We
  always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious
  reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll
  probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially
  for cycles that end up being as busy as this one.

  The major parts of this pull request is:

   - Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
     private implementation instead of using the pig that is
     fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.

   - Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
     by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
     writeback queue throttling code.

   - Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
     that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.

   - Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
     side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
     scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.

   - Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
     and Shaun.

   - Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.

   - Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
     which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From
     Christoph.

   - A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue
     stopping and starting in blk-mq.

   - Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya.

   - Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias.

   - Supoort for FC for the nvme-over-fabrics code. From James Smart.

   - A bunch of fixes from a whole slew of people, too many to name
     here"

* 'for-4.10/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (182 commits)
  blk-stat: fix a few cases of missing batch flushing
  blk-flush: run the queue when inserting blk-mq flush
  elevator: make the rqhash helpers exported
  blk-mq: abstract out blk_mq_dispatch_rq_list() helper
  blk-mq: add blk_mq_start_stopped_hw_queue()
  block: improve handling of the magic discard payload
  blk-wbt: don't throttle discard or write zeroes
  nbd: use dev_err_ratelimited in io path
  nbd: reset the setup task for NBD_CLEAR_SOCK
  nvme-fabrics: Add FC LLDD loopback driver to test FC-NVME
  nvme-fabrics: Add target support for FC transport
  nvme-fabrics: Add host support for FC transport
  nvme-fabrics: Add FC transport LLDD api definitions
  nvme-fabrics: Add FC transport FC-NVME definitions
  nvme-fabrics: Add FC transport error codes to nvme.h

The mddev-&gt;flags are used for different purposes. There are a lot of
places we check/change the flags without masking unrelated flags, we
could check/change unrelated flags. These usage are most for superblock
write, so spearate superblock related flags. This should make the code
clearer and also fix real bugs.
