One of the disadvantages of on-stack plugging is that we potentially
lose out on merging since all pending IO isn't always visible to
everybody. When we flush the on-stack plugs, right now we don't do
any checks to see if potential merge candidates could be utilized.
Correct this by adding a new insert variant, ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT_MERGE.
It works just ELEVATOR_INSERT_SORT, but first checks whether we can
merge with an existing request before doing the insertion (if we fail
merging).
This fixes a regression with multiple processes issuing IO that
can be merged.
Thanks to Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com> for testing and fixing
an accounting bug.

Version 3 is updated to apply to for-2.6.39/core.
For version 2, I took Vivek's advice and made sure we update the group
weight from cfq_group_service_tree_add().
If a weight was updated while a group is on the service tree, the
calculation for the total weight of the service tree can be adjusted
improperly, which either leads to bad service tree weights, or
potentially crashes (if total_weight becomes 0).
This patch defers updates to the weight until a group is off the service
tree.

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.

In blk_add_trace_rq, we only chose the minor 2 bits from
request's cmd_flags and did some check for discard.
so most of other flags(e.g, REQ_SYNC) are missing.
For example, with a sync write after blkparse we get:
8,16 1 1 0.001776503 7509 A WS 1349632 + 1024 <- (8,17) 1347584
8,16 1 2 0.001776813 7509 Q WS 1349632 + 1024 [dd]
8,16 1 3 0.001780395 7509 G WS 1349632 + 1024 [dd]
8,16 1 5 0.001783186 7509 I W 1349632 + 1024 [dd]
8,16 1 11 0.001816987 7509 D W 1349632 + 1024 [dd]
8,16 0 2 0.006218192 0 C W 1349632 + 1024 [0]
Since now we have integrated the flags of both bio and request,
it is safe to pass rq->cmd_flags directly to __blk_add_trace.
With this patch, after a sync write we get:
8,16 1 1 0.001776900 5425 A WS 1189888 + 1024 <- (8,17) 1187840

Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging,

Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
This patch adds support for creating a queuing context outside
of the queue itself. This enables us to batch up pieces of IO
before grabbing the block device queue lock and submitting them to
the IO scheduler.
The context is created on the stack of the process and assigned in
the task structure, so that we can auto-unplug it if we hit a schedule
event.
The current queue plugging happens implicitly if IO is submitted to
an empty device, yet callers have to remember to unplug that IO when
they are going to wait for it. This is an ugly API and has caused bugs
in the past. Additionally, it requires hacks in the vm (->sync_page()
callback) to handle that logic. By switching to an explicit plugging
scheme we make the API a lot nicer and can get rid of the ->sync_page()
hack in the vm.

Convert ->media_changed() to the new ->check_events() method. The
conversion is mostly mechanical. The only notable change is that
cdrom now doesn't generate any event if @slot_nr isn't CDSL_CURRENT.
It used to return -EINVAL which would be treated as media changed. As
media changer isn't supported anyway, this doesn't make any
difference.
This makes ide emit the standard disk events and allows kernel event
polling. Currently, only MEDIA_CHANGE event is implemented. Adding
support for EJECT_REQUEST shouldn't be difficult; however, given that
ide driver is already deprecated, it probably is best to leave it
alone.

Not all block drivers clear events immediately after reporting. Some
do so in ->revalidate_disk() or other steps during ->open(). There is
a slim chance event poll may happen between the clearing event check
from check_disk_change() and the actual clearing of the events which
would result in spurious events.
Block event checks while block device open is in progress. There is
no need to kick explicit event check afterwards as events are always
checked during open.
-v2: The original patch could have called disk_unblock_events() with
an already released or %NULL @disk causing oops. Fixed by making
sure references are put after disk_unblock_events() is called.
It also makes the error path of __blkdev_get() a bit simpler.

The block event mechanism currently always checks events when the
device is being closed regardless of the open mode. The intention was
to allow detection of EJECT_REQUEST when a device is closed whether
disk event polling is enabled or not.
This is unnecessary as, for devices of interest, events are checked
from either userland or kernel and in the former case ->check_events()
is performed on open of each poll attempt anyway. Furthermore, this
unconditional event check on close makes the code susceptible to event
loop if the block driver doesn't clear reported events correctly - an
event triggers userland to open and close the device which in turn
causes another event, rinse and repeat.
Check events on close only if it was blocked by excl write open.

If there are a sync and an async queue and the sync queue's think time
is small, we can ignore the sync queue's dispatch quantum. Because the
sync queue will always preempt the async queue, we don't need to care
about async's latency. This can fix a performance regression of
aiostress test, which is introduced by commit f8ae6e3eb8. The issue
should exist even without the commit, but the commit amplifies the
impact.
