Dispatching a report zones command through the request queue is a major
pain due to the command reply payload rewriting necessary. Given that
blkdev_report_zones() is executing everything synchronously, implement
report zones as a block device file operation instead, allowing major
simplification of the code in many places.

sd, null-blk, dm-linear and dm-flakey being the only block device
drivers supporting exposing zoned block devices, these drivers are
modified to provide the device side implementation of the
report_zones() block device file operation.

For device mappers, a new report_zones() target type operation is
defined so that the upper block layer calls blkdev_report_zones() can
be propagated down to the underlying devices of the dm targets.
Implementation for this new operation is added to the dm-linear and
dm-flakey targets.

When debugging e.g. the SCSI timeout handler it is important that
requests that have not yet been started or that already have

<title>block, scsi: Change the preempt-only flag into a counter</title>

The RQF_PREEMPT flag is used for three purposes:
- In the SCSI core, for making sure that power management requests
  are executed even if a device is in the "quiesced" state.
- For domain validation by SCSI drivers that use the parallel port.
- In the IDE driver, for IDE preempt requests.
Rename "preempt-only" into "pm-only" because the primary purpose of
this mode is power management. Since the power management core may
but does not have to resume a runtime suspended device before
performing system-wide suspend and since a later patch will set
"pm-only" mode as long as a block device is runtime suspended, make
it possible to set "pm-only" mode from more than one context. Since
with this change scsi_device_quiesce() is no longer idempotent, make
that function return early if it is called for a quiesced queue.

It won't be efficient to dequeue request one by one from sw queue,
but we have to do that when queue is busy for better merge performance.

This patch takes the Exponential Weighted Moving Average(EWMA) to figure
out if queue is busy, then only dequeue request one by one from sw queue
when queue is busy.

This patch simplifies the timeout handling by relying on the request
reference counting to ensure the iterator is operating on an inflight
and truly timed out request. Since the reference counting prevents the
tag from being reallocated, the block layer no longer needs to prevent
drivers from completing their requests while the timeout handler is
operating on it: a driver completing a request is allowed to proceed to
the next state without additional syncronization with the block layer.

This also removes any need for generation sequence numbers since the
request lifetime is prevented from being reallocated as a new sequence
while timeout handling is operating on it.

To enables this a refcount is added to struct request so that request
users can be sure they're operating on the same request without it
changing while they're processing it.  The request's tag won't be
released for reuse until both the timeout handler and the completion
are done with it.
