<title>mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros</title>

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - &lt;foo&gt; &lt;&lt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - &lt;foo&gt; &gt;&gt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -&gt; PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -&gt; get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -&gt; put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

If bitmap_create returns an error, we need to call
either bitmap_destroy or bitmap_free to do clean up,
and the selection is based on mddev-&gt;bitmap is set
or not.

And the sysfs_put(bitmap-&gt;sysfs_can_clear) is moved
from bitmap_destroy to bitmap_free, and the comment
of bitmap_create is changed as well.

md_super_write() and corresponding md_super_wait() generally are called
with reconfig_mutex locked, which prevents disk disappears. There is one
case this rule is broken. write_sb_page of bitmap.c doesn't hold the
mutex. next_active_rdev does increase rdev reference, but it decreases
the reference too early (eg, before IO finish). disk can disappear at
the window. We unconditionally increase rdev reference in
md_super_write() to avoid the race.

<title>md:raid1: fix a dead loop when read from a WriteMostly disk</title>

If first_bad == this_sector when we get the WriteMostly disk
in read_balance(), valid disk will be returned with zero
max_sectors. It'll lead to a dead loop in make_request(), and
OOM will happen because of endless allocation of struct bio.

Since we can't get data from this disk in this case, so
continue for another disk.

Pull block driver updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the block driver pull request for this merge window.  It sits
  on top of for-4.6/core, that was just sent out.

  This contains:

   - A set of fixes for lightnvm.  One from Alan, fixing an overflow,
     and the rest from the usual suspects, Javier and Matias.

   - A set of fixes for nbd from Markus and Dan, and a fixup from Arnd
     for correct usage of the signed 64-bit divider.

   - A set of bug fixes for the Micron mtip32xx, from Asai.

   - A fix for the brd discard handling from Bart.

   - Update the maintainers entry for cciss, since that hardware has
     transferred ownership.

   - Three bug fixes for bcache from Eric Wheeler.

   - Set of fixes for xen-blk{back,front} from Jan and Konrad.

   - Removal of the cpqarray driver.  It has been disabled in Kconfig
     since 2013, and we were initially scheduled to remove it in 3.15.

   - Various updates and fixes for NVMe, with the most important being:

        - Removal of the per-device NVMe thread, replacing that with a
          watchdog timer instead. From Christoph.

        - Exposing the namespace WWID through sysfs, from Keith.

        - Set of cleanups from Ming Lin.

        - Logging the controller device name instead of the underlying
          PCI device name, from Sagi.

        - And a bunch of fixes and optimizations from the usual suspects
          in this area"

* 'for-4.6/drivers' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (49 commits)
  NVMe: Expose ns wwid through single sysfs entry
  drivers:block: cpqarray clean up
  brd: Fix discard request processing
  cpqarray: remove it from the kernel
  cciss: update MAINTAINERS
  NVMe: Remove unused sq_head read in completion path
  bcache: fix cache_set_flush() NULL pointer dereference on OOM
  bcache: cleaned up error handling around register_cache()
  bcache: fix race of writeback thread starting before complete initialization
  NVMe: Create discard zero quirk white list
  nbd: use correct div_s64 helper
  mtip32xx: remove unneeded variable in mtip_cmd_timeout()
  lightnvm: generalize rrpc ppa calculations
  lightnvm: remove struct nvm_dev-&gt;total_blocks
  lightnvm: rename -&gt;nr_pages to -&gt;nr_sects
  lightnvm: update closed list outside of intr context
  xen/blback: Fit the important information of the thread in 17 characters
  lightnvm: fold get bb tbl when using dual/quad plane mode
  lightnvm: fix up nonsensical configure overrun checking
  xen-blkback: advertise indirect segment support earlier

The raid456_cpu_notify() hotplug callback lacks handling of the
CPU_UP_CANCELED case. That means if CPU_UP_PREPARE fails, the scratch
buffer is leaked.

Add handling for CPU_UP_CANCELED[_FROZEN] hotplug notifier transitions
to free the scratch buffer.
