Commit 3b4b19721ec652 ("nvme: fix possible deadlock when I/O is
blocked") reverted multipath head disk revalidation due to deadlocks
caused by holding the bd_mutex during revalidate.

Updating the multipath disk blockdev size is still required though for
userspace to be able to observe any resizing while the device is
mounted. Directly update the bdev inode size to avoid unnecessarily
holding the bdev-&gt;bd_mutex.

Commit 59c7c3caaaf8 intended to only silently ignore non retry-able
errors (DNR bit set) such that we can still identify misbehaving
controllers, and in the other hand propagate retry-able errors (DNR bit
cleared) so we don't wrongly abandon a namespace just because it happens
to be temporarily inaccessible.

The goal remains the same as the original commit where this was
introduced but unfortunately had the logic backwards.

Revert fab7772bfbcf ("nvme-multipath: revalidate nvme_ns_head gendisk
in nvme_validate_ns")

When adding a new namespace to the head disk (via nvme_mpath_set_live)
we will see partition scan which triggers I/O on the mpath device node.
This process will usually be triggered from the scan_work which holds
the scan_lock. If I/O blocks (if we got ana change currently have only
available paths but none are accessible) this can deadlock on the head
disk bd_mutex as both partition scan I/O takes it, and head disk revalidation
takes it to check for resize (also triggered from scan_work on a different
path). See trace [1].

The mpath disk revalidation was originally added to detect online disk
size change, but this is no longer needed since commit cb224c3af4df
("nvme: Convert to use set_capacity_revalidate_and_notify") which already
updates resize info without unnecessarily revalidating the disk (the
mpath disk doesn't even implement .revalidate_disk fop).

device_add_disk() is negated by del_gendisk().
alloc_disk_node() is negated by put_disk().

In nvme_alloc_ns(), device_add_disk() is one of the last things being
called in the success case, and only void functions are being called
after this. Therefore this call should not be negated in the error path.

The superfluous call to del_gendisk() leads to the following prints:
[    7.839975] kobject: '(null)' (000000001ff73734): is not initialized, yet kobject_put() is being called.

Use blk_mq_foce_complete_rq() to bypass fake timeout error injection so
that request reclaim may proceed.

The default dma alignment mask is 511, which is much larger than any nvme
controller requires. NVMe controllers accept qword aligned DMA addresses,
so set the request_queue constraints to that. This can help avoid bounce
buffers on user passthrough commands.

<title>nvme: enforce extended LBA format for fabrics metadata</title>

<id>33cfdc2aa6969829f42640f758357e4b015e9f7d</id>
<content type='text'>
An extended LBA is a larger LBA that is created when metadata associated
with the LBA is transferred contiguously with the LBA data (AKA
interleaved). The metadata may be either transferred as part of the LBA
(creating an extended LBA) or it may be transferred as a separate
contiguous buffer of data. According to the NVMeoF spec, a fabrics ctrl
supports only an Extended LBA format. Fail revalidation in case we have a
spec violation. Also add a flag that will imply on capable transports and
controllers as part of a preparation for allowing end-to-end protection
information for fabric controllers.
