Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "A final set of fixes for 4.3.

  It is (again) bigger than I would have liked, but it's all been
  through the testing mill and has been carefully reviewed by multiple
  parties.  Each fix is either a regression fix for this cycle, or is
  marked stable.  You can scold me at KS.  The pull request contains:

   - Three simple fixes for NVMe, fixing regressions since 4.3.  From
     Arnd, Christoph, and Keith.

   - A single xen-blkfront fix from Cathy, fixing a NULL dereference if
     an error is returned through the staste change callback.

   - Fixup for some bad/sloppy code in nbd that got introduced earlier
     in this cycle.  From Markus Pargmann.

   - A blk-mq tagset use-after-free fix from Junichi.

   - A backing device lifetime fix from Tejun, fixing a crash.

   - And finally, a set of regression/stable fixes for cgroup writeback
     from Tejun"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
  writeback: remove broken rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() usage in cgwb_bdi_destroy()
  NVMe: Fix memory leak on retried commands
  block: don't release bdi while request_queue has live references
  nvme: use an integer value to Linux errno values

Some code may perform racy by design memory reads. This could be
harmless, yet such code may produce KASAN warnings.

To hide such accesses from KASAN this patch introduces
READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() macro. KASAN will not check the memory
accessed by READ_ONCE_NOCHECK(). The KernelThreadSanitizer
(KTSAN) is going to ignore it as well.

This patch creates __read_once_size_nocheck() a clone of
__read_once_size(). The only difference between them is
'no_sanitized_address' attribute appended to '*_nocheck'
function. This attribute tells the compiler that instrumentation
of memory accesses should not be applied to that function. We
declare it as static '__maybe_unsed' because GCC is not capable
to inline such function:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=67368

With KASAN=n READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() is just a clone of READ_ONCE().

<title>block: don't release bdi while request_queue has live references</title>

<content type='text'>
bdi's are initialized in two steps, bdi_init() and bdi_register(), but
destroyed in a single step by bdi_destroy() which, for a bdi embedded
in a request_queue, is called during blk_cleanup_queue() which makes
the queue invisible and starts the draining of remaining usages.

A request_queue's user can access the congestion state of the embedded
bdi as long as it holds a reference to the queue.  As such, it may
access the congested state of a queue which finished
blk_cleanup_queue() but hasn't reached blk_release_queue() yet.
Because the congested state was embedded in backing_dev_info which in
turn is embedded in request_queue, accessing the congested state after
bdi_destroy() was called was fine.  The bdi was destroyed but the
memory region for the congested state remained accessible till the
queue got released.

a13f35e87140 ("writeback: don't embed root bdi_writeback_congested in
bdi_writeback") changed the situation.  Now, the root congested state
which is expected to be pinned while request_queue remains accessible
is separately reference counted and the base ref is put during
bdi_destroy().  This means that the root congested state may go away
prematurely while the queue is between bdi_dstroy() and
blk_cleanup_queue(), which was detected by Andrey's KASAN tests.

The root cause of this problem is that bdi doesn't distinguish the two
steps of destruction, unregistration and release, and now the root
congested state actually requires a separate release step.  To fix the
issue, this patch separates out bdi_unregister() and bdi_exit() from
bdi_destroy().  bdi_unregister() is called from blk_cleanup_queue()
and bdi_exit() from blk_release_queue().  bdi_destroy() is now just a
simple wrapper calling the two steps back-to-back.

While at it, the prototype of bdi_destroy() is moved right below
bdi_setup_and_register() so that the counterpart operations are
located together.

<title>writeback: fix incorrect calculation of available memory for memcg domains</title>

<id>c5edf9cdc4c483b9a94c03fc0b9f769bd090bf3e</id>
<content type='text'>
For memcg domains, the amount of available memory was calculated as

 min(the amount currently in use + headroom according to memcg,
     total clean memory)

This isn't quite correct as what should be capped by the amount of
clean memory is the headroom, not the sum of memory in use and
headroom.  For example, if a memcg domain has a significant amount of
dirty memory, the above can lead to a value which is lower than the
current amount in use which doesn't make much sense.  In most
circumstances, the above leads to a number which is somewhat but not
drastically lower.

As the amount of memory which can be readily allocated to the memcg
domain is capped by the amount of system-wide clean memory which is
not already assigned to the memcg itself, the number we want is

 the amount currently in use +
 min(headroom according to memcg, clean memory elsewhere in the system)

This patch updates mem_cgroup_wb_stats() to return the number of
filepages and headroom instead of the calculated available pages.
mdtc_cap_avail() is renamed to mdtc_calc_avail() and performs the
above calculation from file, headroom, dirty and globally clean pages.

v2: Dummy mem_cgroup_wb_stats() implementation wasn't updated leading
    to build failure when !CGROUP_WRITEBACK.  Fixed.

bdi_for_each_wb() is used in several places to wake up or issue
writeback work items to all wb's (bdi_writeback's) on a given bdi.
The iteration is performed by walking bdi-&gt;cgwb_tree; however, the
tree only indexes wb's which are currently active.

For example, when a memcg gets associated with a different blkcg, the
old wb is removed from the tree so that the new one can be indexed.
The old wb starts dying from then on but will linger till all its
inodes are drained.  As these dying wb's may still host dirty inodes,
writeback operations which affect all wb's must include them.
bdi_for_each_wb() skipping dying wb's led to sync(2) missing and
failing to sync the inodes belonging to those wb's.

This patch adds a RCU protected @bdi-&gt;wb_list which lists all wb's
beloinging to that bdi.  wb's are added on creation and removed on
release rather than on the start of destruction.  bdi_for_each_wb()
usages are replaced with list_for_each[_continue]_rcu() iterations
over @bdi-&gt;wb_list and bdi_for_each_wb() and its helpers are removed.

v2: Updated as per Jan.  last_wb ref leak in bdi_split_work_to_wbs()
    fixed and unnecessary list head severing in cgwb_bdi_destroy()
    removed.

bdi_for_each_wb() is used in several places to wake up or issue
writeback work items to all wb's (bdi_writeback's) on a given bdi.
The iteration is performed by walking bdi-&gt;cgwb_tree; however, the
tree only indexes wb's which are currently active.

old wb is removed from the tree so that the new one can be indexed.

     not depend on merge ordering"

As we're about to remove the of_node field from the irqdomain
structure, introduce an accessor for it. Subsequent patches
will take care of the actual repainting.
