Pull device mapper changes from Mike Snitzer:

 - Allow the thin target to paired with any size external origin; also
   allow thin snapshots to be larger than the external origin.

 - Add support for quickly loading a repetitive pattern into the
   dm-switch target.

 - Use per-bio data in the dm-crypt target instead of always using a
   mempool for each allocation.  Required switching to kmalloc alignment
   for the bio slab.

 - Fix DM core to properly stack the QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGE flag

 - Fix the dm-cache and dm-thin targets' export of the minimum_io_size
   to match the data block size -- this fixes an issue where mkfs.xfs
   would improperly infer raid striping was in place on the underlying
   storage.

 - Small cleanups in dm-io, dm-mpath and dm-cache

* tag 'dm-3.17-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm:
  dm table: propagate QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGE
  dm switch: efficiently support repetitive patterns
  dm switch: factor out switch_region_table_read
  dm cache: set minimum_io_size to cache's data block size
  dm thin: set minimum_io_size to pool's data block size

Pull block driver changes from Jens Axboe:
 "Nothing out of the ordinary here, this pull request contains:

   - A big round of fixes for bcache from Kent Overstreet, Slava Pestov,
     and Surbhi Palande.  No new features, just a lot of fixes.

   - The usual round of drbd updates from Andreas Gruenbacher, Lars
     Ellenberg, and Philipp Reisner.

   - virtio_blk was converted to blk-mq back in 3.13, but now Ming Lei
     has taken it one step further and added support for actually using
     more than one queue.

   - Addition of an explicit SG_FLAG_Q_AT_HEAD for block/bsg, to
     compliment the the default behavior of adding to the tail of the
     queue.  From Douglas Gilbert"

Pull cgroup changes from Tejun Heo:
 "Mostly changes to get the v2 interface ready.  The core features are
  mostly ready now and I think it's reasonable to expect to drop the
  devel mask in one or two devel cycles at least for a subset of
  controllers.

   - cgroup added a controller dependency mechanism so that block cgroup
     can depend on memory cgroup.  This will be used to finally support
     IO provisioning on the writeback traffic, which is currently being
     implemented.

   - The v2 interface now uses a separate table so that the interface
     files for the new interface are explicitly declared in one place.
     Each controller will explicitly review and add the files for the
     new interface.

   - cpuset is getting ready for the hierarchical behavior which is in
     the similar style with other controllers so that an ancestor's
     configuration change doesn't change the descendants' configurations
     irreversibly and processes aren't silently migrated when a CPU or
     node goes down.

  All the changes are to the new interface and no behavior changed for
  the multiple hierarchies"

<title>block: use kmalloc alignment for bio slab</title>

<id>6a2414836154dc22b224c837ad7b862f78d595d1</id>
<content type='text'>
Various subsystems can ask the bio subsystem to create a bio slab cache
with some free space before the bio.  This free space can be used for any
purpose.  Device mapper uses this per-bio-data feature to place some
target-specific and device-mapper specific data before the bio, so that
the target-specific data doesn't have to be allocated separately.

This per-bio-data mechanism is used in place of kmalloc, so we need the
allocated slab to have the same memory alignment as memory allocated
with kmalloc.

Change bio_find_or_create_slab() so that it uses ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN
alignment when creating the slab cache.  This is needed so that dm-crypt
can use per-bio-data for encryption - the crypto subsystem assumes this
data will have the same alignment as kmalloc'ed memory.

776687bce42b ("block, blk-mq: draining can't be skipped even if
bypass_depth was non-zero") made it easier to trigger this bug by
making blk_queue_bypass_start() drain even when it loses the first
bypass test to blk_cleanup_queue(); however, the bug has always been
there even before the commit as blk_queue_bypass_start() could race
against queue destruction, win the initial bypass test but perform the
actual draining after blk_cleanup_queue() already destroyed all blkgs.

Fix it by skippping calling into policy draining if all the blkgs are
already gone.

While a queue is being destroyed, all the blkgs are destroyed and its

while the queue is in this state, the following oops happens.

<title>cgroup: replace cgroup_add_cftypes() with cgroup_add_legacy_cftypes()</title>

<id>2cf669a58dc08fa065a8bd0dca866c0e6cb358cc</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, cftypes added by cgroup_add_cftypes() are used for both the
unified default hierarchy and legacy ones and subsystems can mark each
file with either CFTYPE_ONLY_ON_DFL or CFTYPE_INSANE if it has to
appear only on one of them.  This is quite hairy and error-prone.
Also, we may end up exposing interface files to the default hierarchy
without thinking it through.

cgroup_subsys will grow two separate cftype addition functions and
apply each only on the hierarchies of the matching type.  This will
allow organizing cftypes in a lot clearer way and encourage subsystems
to scrutinize the interface which is being exposed in the new default
hierarchy.

In preparation, this patch adds cgroup_add_legacy_cftypes() which
currently is a simple wrapper around cgroup_add_cftypes() and replaces
all cgroup_add_cftypes() usages with it.

While at it, this patch drops a completely spurious return from
__hugetlb_cgroup_file_init().

This patch doesn't introduce any functional differences.
