Jens Axboe dd67d05152 [PATCH] rbtree: support functions used by the io schedulers
They all duplicate macros to check for empty root and/or node, and
clearing a node. So put those in rbtree.h.

Akinobu Mita bae386f788 [PATCH] iosched: use hlist for request hashtable
Use hlist instead of list_head for request hashtable in deadline-iosched
and as-iosched. It also can remove the flag to know hashed or unhashed.

Jens Axboe bc1c116974 [PATCH] elevator switching race
There's a race between shutting down one io scheduler and firing up the
next, in which a new io could enter and cause the io scheduler to be
invoked with bad or NULL data.

To fix this, we need to maintain the queue lock for a bit longer.
Unfortunately we cannot do that, since the elevator init requires to be
run without the lock held.  This isn't easily fixable, without also
changing the mempool API.  So split the initialization into two parts,
and alloc-init operation and an attach operation.  Then we can
preallocate the io scheduler and related structures, and run the attach
inside the lock after we detach the old one.

This patch has survived 30 minutes of 1 second io scheduler switching
with a very busy io load.

David Woodhouse 3db3a44530 [RBTREE] Change rbtree off-tree marking in I/O schedulers.
They were abusing the rb_color field to mark nodes which weren't currently
on the tree. Fix that to use the same method as eventpoll did -- setting
the parent pointer to point back to itself. And use the appropriate
accessor macros for setting and reading the parent.

Arjan van de Ven 64100099ed [BLOCK] mark some block/ variables cons
the patch below marks various read-only variables in block/* as const,
so that gcc can optimize the use of them; eg gcc will replace the use by
the value directly now and will even remove the memory usage of these.

Coywolf Qi Hunt eb97b73d75 [BLOCK] new block/ directory comment tidy
Some leftover comments referring to drivers/block that are now block/.
They don't add any information we don't already have, so kill them.

Jens Axboe 3a65dfe8c0 [BLOCK] Move all core block layer code to new block/ directory
drivers/block/ is right now a mix of core and driver parts. Lets move
the core parts to a new top level directory. Al will move the fs/
related block parts to block/ next.
