No users left since the removal of the legacy request interface, we can
remove all the magic bit stealing now and make it a normal field.

But use WRITE_ONCE/READ_ONCE on the new deadline field, given that we
don't seem to have any mechanism to guarantee a new value actually
gets seen by other threads.

The only user of legacy timing now is BSG, which is invoked

The BLK_EH_NOT_HANDLED implies nothing happen, but very often that
is not what is happening - instead the driver already completed the
command.  Fix the symbolic name to reflect that a little better.

<title>blk-mq: Remove generation seqeunce</title>

<id>12f5b93145450c750f315657ef239a314811aeeb</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

<title>blk-mq: Directly schedule q-&gt;timeout_work when aborting a request</title>

Request abortion is performed by overriding deadline to now and
scheduling timeout handling immediately.  For the latter part, the
code was using mod_timer(timeout, 0) which can't guarantee that the
timer runs afterwards.  Let's schedule the underlying work item
directly instead.

This fixes the hangs during probing reported by Sitsofe but it isn't
yet clear to me how the failure can happen reliably if it's just the
above described race condition.
