Other than in issue error paths, ps3disk always completely finishes
fetched requests. With full completion on error paths, it can be
easily converted to dequeueing model.
* After L1 r/w call failure, ps3disk_submit_request_sg() now fails the
whole request. Issue failure isn't likely to benefit from partial
retry anyway and ps3disk uses full failure in completion error path
too, so I don't think this amounts to any meaningful functionality
loss.
* flush completion is converted to _all for consistency. It doesn't
make any functional difference.

ide generally has single request in flight and tracks it using
hwif->rq and all state handlers follow the following convention.
* ide_started is returned if the request is in flight.
* ide_stopped is returned if the queue needs to be restarted. The
request might or might not have been processed fully or partially.
* hwif->rq is set to NULL, when an issued request completes.
So, dequeueing model can be implemented by dequeueing after fetch,
requeueing if hwif->rq isn't NULL on ide_stopped return and doing
about the same thing on completion / port unlock paths. These changes
can be made in ide-io proper.
In addition to the above main changes, the following updates are
necessary.
* ide-cd shouldn't dequeue a request when issuing REQUEST SENSE for it
as the request is already dequeued.
* ide-atapi uses request queue as stack when issuing REQUEST SENSE to
put the REQUEST SENSE in front of the failed request. This now
needs to be done using requeueing.

abusing block layer API. Especially struct request's fields tend to
get violated in all possible ways. Make it clear that low level
drivers MUST NOT access or manipulate rq->sector and rq->data_len
directly by prefixing them with double underscores.
This change is also necessary to break build of out-of-tree codes
which assume the previous block API where internal fields can be

struct request has had a few different ways to represent some
properties of a request. ->hard_* represent block layer's view of the
request progress (completion cursor) and the ones without the prefix
are supposed to represent the issue cursor and allowed to be updated
as necessary by the low level drivers. The thing is that as block
layer supports partial completion, the two cursors really aren't
necessary and only cause confusion. In addition, manual management of
request detail from low level drivers is cumbersome and error-prone at
the very least.
Another interesting duplicate fields are rq->[hard_]nr_sectors and
rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors against rq->data_len and
rq->bio->bi_size. This is more convoluted than the hard_ case.
rq->[hard_]nr_sectors are initialized for requests with bio but
blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for !pc requests. rq->data_len is
initialized for all request but blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for pc
requests. This causes good amount of confusion throughout block layer
and its drivers and determining the request length has been a bit of
black magic which may or may not work depending on circumstances and
what the specific LLD is actually doing.
rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors represent the number of sectors in
the contiguous data area at the front. This is mainly used by drivers
which transfers data by walking request segment-by-segment. This
value always equals rq->bio->bi_size >> 9. However, data length for
pc requests may not be multiple of 512 bytes and using this field
becomes a bit confusing.
In general, having multiple fields to represent the same property
leads only to confusion and subtle bugs. With recent block low level
driver cleanups, no driver is accessing or manipulating these
duplicate fields directly. Drop all the duplicates. Now rq->sector
means the current sector, rq->data_len the current total length and
rq->bio->bi_size the current segment length. Everything else is
defined in terms of these three and available only through accessors.
* blk_recalc_rq_sectors() is collapsed into blk_update_request() and
now handles pc and fs requests equally other than rq->sector update.
This means that now pc requests can use partial completion too (no
in-kernel user yet tho).
* bio_cur_sectors() is replaced with bio_cur_bytes() as block layer
now uses byte count as the primary data length.
* blk_rq_pos() is now guranteed to be always correct. In-block users
converted.
* blk_rq_bytes() is now guaranteed to be always valid as is
blk_rq_sectors(). In-block users converted.
* blk_rq_sectors() is now guaranteed to equal blk_rq_bytes() >> 9.
More convenient one is used.
* blk_rq_bytes() and blk_rq_cur_bytes() are now inlined and take const
pointer to request.

rq->data_len served two purposes - the length of data buffer on issue
and the residual count on completion. This duality creates some
headaches.
First of all, block layer and low level drivers can't really determine
what rq->data_len contains while a request is executing. It could be
the total request length or it coulde be anything else one of the
lower layers is using to keep track of residual count. This
complicates things because blk_rq_bytes() and thus
[__]blk_end_request_all() relies on rq->data_len for PC commands.
Drivers which want to report residual count should first cache the
total request length, update rq->data_len and then complete the
request with the cached data length.
Secondly, it makes requests default to reporting full residual count,
ie. reporting that no data transfer occurred. The residual count is
an exception not the norm; however, the driver should clear
rq->data_len to zero to signify the normal cases while leaving it
alone means no data transfer occurred at all. This reverse default
behavior complicates code unnecessarily and renders block PC on some
drivers (ide-tape/floppy) unuseable.
This patch adds rq->resid_len which is used only for residual count.
While at it, remove now unnecessasry blk_rq_bytes() caching in
ide_pc_intr() as rq->data_len is not changed anymore.

and guarantee that all initialized rq's have its start_time set. This
improves consistency at virtually no cost and future changes will make
use of the timestamp for !bio requests.

Request completion has gone through several changes and became a bit
messy over the time. Clean it up.
1. end_that_request_data() is a thin wrapper around
end_that_request_data_first() which checks whether bio is NULL
before doing anything and handles bidi completion.
blk_update_request() is a thin wrapper around
end_that_request_data() which clears nr_sectors on the last
iteration but doesn't use the bidi completion.
Clean it up by moving the initial bio NULL check and nr_sectors
clearing on the last iteration into end_that_request_data() and
renaming it to blk_update_request(), which makes blk_end_io() the
only user of end_that_request_data(). Collapse
end_that_request_data() into blk_end_io().
2. There are four visible completion variants - blk_end_request(),
__blk_end_request(), blk_end_bidi_request() and end_request().
blk_end_request() and blk_end_bidi_request() uses blk_end_request()
as the backend but __blk_end_request() and end_request() use
separate implementation in __blk_end_request() due to different
locking rules.
blk_end_bidi_request() is identical to blk_end_io(). Collapse
blk_end_io() into blk_end_bidi_request(), separate out request
update into internal helper blk_update_bidi_request() and add
__blk_end_bidi_request(). Redefine [__]blk_end_request() as thin
inline wrappers around [__]blk_end_bidi_request().
3. As the whole request issue/completion usages are about to be
modified and audited, it's a good chance to convert completion
functions return bool which better indicates the intended meaning
of return values.
4. The function name end_that_request_last() is from the days when it
was a public interface and slighly confusing. Give it a proper
internal name - blk_finish_request().
5. Add description explaning that blk_end_bidi_request() can be safely
used for uni requests as suggested by Boaz Harrosh.
The only visible behavior change is from #1. nr_sectors counts are
cleared after the final iteration no matter which function is used to
complete the request. I couldn't find any place where the code
assumes those nr_sectors counters contain the values for the last
segment and this change is good as it makes the API much more
consistent as the end result is now same whether a request is
completed using [__]blk_end_request() alone or in combination with
blk_update_request().
API further cleaned up per Christoph's suggestion.

With recent IDE updates, blk_end_request_callback() doesn't have any
user now. Kill it.

Impact: code reorganization
elv_next_request() and elv_dequeue_request() are public block layer
interface than actual elevator implementation. They mostly deal with
how requests interact with block layer and low level drivers at the
beginning of rqeuest processing whereas __elv_next_request() is the
actual eleveator request fetching interface.
Move the two functions to blk-core.c. This prepares for further
interface cleanup.

Reorder request completion functions such that
* All request completion functions are located together.
* Functions which are used by only one caller is put right above the
caller.
* end_request() is put after other completion functions but before
blk_update_request().
This change is for completion function cleanup which will follow.

blk_insert_request() doesn't need to worry about REQ_SOFTBARRIER.
Don't set it. Combined with recent ide updates, REQ_SOFTBARRIER is
now only used in elevator proper and for discard requests.

RQ_NOMERGE_FLAGS already clears defines which REQ flags aren't
mergeable. There is no reason to specify it superflously. It only
adds to confusion. Don't set REQ_NOMERGE for barriers and requests
with specific queueing directive. REQ_NOMERGE is now exclusively used
by the merging code.
