Pull block core updates from Jens Axboe:
 "It's a big(ish) round this time, lots of development effort has gone
  into blk-mq in the last 3 months.  Generally we're heading to where
  3.16 will be a feature complete and performant blk-mq.  scsi-mq is
  progressing nicely and will hopefully be in 3.17.  A nvme port is in
  progress, and the Micron pci-e flash driver, mtip32xx, is converted
  and will be sent in with the driver pull request for 3.16.

  This pull request contains:

   - Lots of prep and support patches for scsi-mq have been integrated.
     All from Christoph.

   - API and code cleanups for blk-mq from Christoph.

   - Lots of good corner case and error handling cleanup fixes for
     blk-mq from Ming Lei.

   - A flew of blk-mq updates from me:

     * Provide strict mappings so that the driver can rely on the CPU
       to queue mapping.  This enables optimizations in the driver.

     * Provided a bitmap tagging instead of percpu_ida, which never
       really worked well for blk-mq.  percpu_ida relies on the fact
       that we have a lot more tags available than we really need, it
       fails miserably for cases where we exhaust (or are close to
       exhausting) the tag space.

     * Provide sane support for shared tag maps, as utilized by scsi-mq

     * Various fixes for IO timeouts.

     * API cleanups, and lots of perf tweaks and optimizations.

   - Remove 'buffer' from struct request.  This is ancient code, from
     when requests were always virtually mapped.  Kill it, to reclaim
     some space in struct request.  From me.

   - Remove 'magic' from blk_plug.  Since we store these on the stack
     and since we've never caught any actual bugs with this, lets just
     get rid of it.  From me.

   - Only call part_in_flight() once for IO completion, as includes two
     atomic reads.  Hopefully we'll get a better implementation soon, as
     the part IO stats are now one of the more expensive parts of doing
     IO on blk-mq.  From me.

   - File migration of block code from {mm,fs}/ to block/.  This
     includes bio.c, bio-integrity.c, bounce.c, and ioprio.c.  From me,
     from a discussion on lkml.

  That should describe the meat of the pull request.  Also has various
  little fixes and cleanups from Dave Jones, Shaohua Li, Duan Jiong,
  Fengguang Wu, Fabian Frederick, Randy Dunlap, Robert Elliott, and Sam
  Bradshaw"

* 'for-3.16/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (100 commits)
  blk-mq: push IPI or local end_io decision to __blk_mq_complete_request()
  blk-mq: remember to start timeout handler for direct queue
  block: ensure that the timer is always added
  blk-mq: blk_mq_unregister_hctx() can be static
  blk-mq: make the sysfs mq/ layout reflect current mappings
  blk-mq: blk_mq_tag_to_rq should handle flush request
  block: remove dead code in scsi_ioctl:blk_verify_command
  blk-mq: request initialization optimizations
  block: add queue flag for disabling SG merging
  block: remove 'magic' from struct blk_plug
  blk-mq: remove alloc_hctx and free_hctx methods

With the kernel running from FastRAM instead of ST-RAM, none of ST-RAM is
mapped by mem_init, and DMA-addressable buffer must be mapped by ioremap.

Use platform specific virt/phys translation helpers for this case.

This was used in the olden days, back when onions were proper
yellow. Basically it mapped to the current buffer to be
transferred. With highmem being added more than a decade ago,
most drivers map pages out of a bio, and rq-&gt;buffer isn't
pointing at anything valid.

Convert old style drivers to just use bio_data().

For the discard payload use case, just reference the page
in the bio.

sleep_on() is inherently racy, and has been deprecated for a long time.
This fixes two instances in the atari floppy driver:

* fdc_wait/fdc_busy becomes an open-coded mutex. We cannot use the
  regular mutex since it gets released in interrupt context. The
  open-coded version using wait_event() and cmpxchg() is equivalent
  to the existing code but does the checks atomically, and we can
  now safely check the condition with irqs enabled.

* format_wait becomes a completion, which is the natural structure
  here. The format ioctl waits for the background task to either
  complete or abort.

This does not attempt to fix the preexisting bug of calling schedule
with local interrupts disabled.

The value passed is 0 in all but "it can never happen" cases (and those

In-kernel disk event polling doesn't matter for legacy/fringe drivers
and may lead to infinite event loop if -&gt;check_events() implementation
generates events on level condition instead of edge.

Now that block layer supports suppressing exporting unlisted events,
simply leaving disk-&gt;events cleared allows these drivers to keep the
internal revalidation behavior intact while avoiding weird
interactions with userland event handler.

Convert the floppy drivers from -&gt;media_changed() to -&gt;check_events().
Both floppy and ataflop buffer media changed state bit and clear them
on revalidation and will behave correctly with kernel event polling.

I can't tell how amiflop clears its event and it's possible that it
may generate spurious events when polled.

Geert, my crosstool don't produce warning below. I guess this has to do
something with compiler version.

- Geert noticed following warning during compilation.

  drivers/block/amiflop.c:1344: warning: ‘rq’ may be used uninitialized in
  this function
  drivers/block/ataflop.c:1402: warning: ‘rq’ may be used uninitialized in
  this function

- Initialize rq to NULL to fix the warning. If we can't find a suitable request
  to dispatch, this function should return NULL instead of a possibly garbage
  pointer.

- Cross compile tested only. Don't have hardware to test it.

<title>block: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private mutex</title>

The block device drivers have all gained new lock_kernel
calls from a recent pushdown, and some of the drivers
were already using the BKL before.

This turns the BKL into a set of per-driver mutexes.
Still need to check whether this is safe to do.

file=$1
name=$2
if grep -q lock_kernel ${file} ; then
    if grep -q 'include.*linux.mutex.h' ${file} ; then
            sed -i '/include.*&lt;linux\/smp_lock.h&gt;/d' ${file}
    else
            sed -i 's/include.*&lt;linux\/smp_lock.h&gt;.*$/include &lt;linux\/mutex.h&gt;/g' ${file}
    fi
    sed -i ${file} \
        -e "/^#include.*linux.mutex.h/,$ {
                1,/^\(static\|int\|long\)/ {
                     /^\(static\|int\|long\)/istatic DEFINE_MUTEX(${name}_mutex);

} }"  \
    -e "s/\(un\)*lock_kernel\&gt;[ ]*()/mutex_\1lock(\&amp;${name}_mutex)/g" \
    -e '/[      ]*cycle_kernel_lock();/d'
else
    sed -i -e '/include.*\&lt;smp_lock.h\&gt;/d' ${file}  \
                -e '/cycle_kernel_lock()/d'
fi
