<id>7b7b68bba5ef23734c35ffb0d8d82079ed604d33</id>
<content type='text'>
In case reading of block 0 during open() fails, it is not the right thing
to let open() succeed.

Fix this by introducing FD_OPEN_SHOULD_FAIL_BIT flag, and setting it in
case the bio callback encounters an error while trying to read block 0.

As a bonus, this works around certain broken userspace (blkid), which is
not able to properly handle read()s returning IO errors. Hence be nice to
those, and bail out during open() already; if block 0 is not readable,
read()s are not going to provide any meaningful data anyway.

<title>block: Convert bio_for_each_segment() to bvec_iter</title>

<content type='text'>
More prep work for immutable biovecs - with immutable bvecs drivers
won't be able to use the biovec directly, they'll need to use helpers
that take into account bio-&gt;bi_iter.bi_bvec_done.

This updates callers for the new usage without changing the
implementation yet.

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames
things.

Pull block core updates from Jens Axboe:

 - Major bit is Kents prep work for immutable bio vecs.

 - Stable candidate fix for a scheduling-while-atomic in the queue
   bypass operation.

 - Fix for the hang on exceeded rq-&gt;datalen 32-bit unsigned when merging
   discard bios.

 - Tejuns changes to convert the writeback thread pool to the generic
   workqueue mechanism.

 - Runtime PM framework, SCSI patches exists on top of these in James'
   tree.

 - A few random fixes.

The value passed is 0 in all but "it can never happen" cases (and those
only in a couple of drivers) *and* it would've been lost on the way
out anyway, even if something tried to pass something meaningful.
Just don't bother.

For immutable bvecs, all bi_idx usage needs to be audited - so here
we're removing all the unnecessary uses.

Most of these are places where it was being initialized on a bio that
was just allocated, a few others are conversions to standard macros.

We need to first destroy the floppy_wq workqueue before cleaning up
the queue. Otherwise we might race with still pending work with the
workqueue, but all the block queue already gone. This might lead to
various oopses, such as

This is a small cleanup, that also may turn error handling of
unitialized disks more readable. We don't need a separate variable to
track allocated disks, remove dr and reuse drive variable instead.

The same checks to see if a drive can be or is registered are
repeated through the code, factor out the checks in a common function
and replace the repeated checks with it.
