sb_mac() verifies that the superblock + MAC don't exceed 512 bytes.
Because the superblock is currently 64 bytes, this really verifies
mac_size &lt;= 448.  This confuses smatch into thinking that mac_size may
be as large as 448, which is inconsistent with the later code that
assumes the MAC fits in a buffer of size HASH_MAX_DIGESTSIZE (64).

In fact mac_size &lt;= HASH_MAX_DIGESTSIZE is guaranteed by the crypto API,
as that is the whole point of HASH_MAX_DIGESTSIZE.  But, let's be
defensive and explicitly check for this.  This suppresses the false
positive smatch warning.  It does not fix an actual bug.

<title>dm-integrity: fix a race condition when accessing recalc_sector</title>

<content type='text'>
There's a race condition when accessing the variable
ic-&gt;sb-&gt;recalc_sector. The function integrity_recalc writes to this
variable when it makes some progress and the function
dm_integrity_map_continue may read this variable concurrently.

One problem is that on 32-bit architectures the 64-bit variable is not
read and written atomically - it may be possible to read garbage if read
races with write.

Another problem is that memory accesses to this variable are not guarded
with memory barriers.

This commit fixes the race - it moves reading ic-&gt;sb-&gt;recalc_sector to an
earlier place where we hold &amp;ic-&gt;endio_wait.lock.

<content type='text'>
In the kernel 6.11, dm-integrity was enhanced with an inline ('I') mode.
This mode uses devices with non-power-of-2 sector size. The extra
metadata after each sector are used to hold the integrity hash.

This commit enhances the inline mode, so that there is automatic
recalculation of the integrity hashes when the 'reclaculate' parameter is
used. It allows us to activate the device instantly, and the
recalculation is done on background.

If the device is deactivated while recalculation is in progress, it will
remember the point where it stopped and it will continue from this point
when activated again.

Replace comma between expressions with semicolons.

Using a ',' in place of a ';' can have unintended side effects.
Although that is not the case here, it is seems best to use ';'
unless ',' is intended.

Found by inspection.
No functional change intended.
Compile tested only.

<title>minmax: add a few more MIN_T/MAX_T users</title>

Commit 3a7e02c040b1 ("minmax: avoid overly complicated constant
expressions in VM code") added the simpler MIN_T/MAX_T macros in order
to avoid some excessive expansion from the rather complicated regular
min/max macros.

The complexity of those macros stems from two issues:

 (a) trying to use them in situations that require a C constant
     expression (in static initializers and for array sizes)

 (b) the type sanity checking

and MIN_T/MAX_T avoids both of these issues.

Now, in the whole (long) discussion about all this, it was pointed out
that the whole type sanity checking is entirely unnecessary for
min_t/max_t which get a fixed type that the comparison is done in.

But that still leaves min_t/max_t unnecessarily complicated due to
worries about the C constant expression case.

However, it turns out that there really aren't very many cases that use
min_t/max_t for this, and we can just force-convert those.

This does exactly that.

Which in turn will then allow for much simpler implementations of
min_t()/max_t().  All the usual "macros in all upper case will evaluate
the arguments multiple times" rules apply.

We should do all the same things for the regular min/max() vs MIN/MAX()
cases, but that has the added complexity of various drivers defining
their own local versions of MIN/MAX, so that needs another level of
fixes first.

This commit introduces a new 'I' mode for dm-integrity.

The 'I' mode may be selected if the underlying device has non-power-of-2
sector size. In this mode, dm-integrity will store integrity data
directly in device's sectors and it will not use journal.

This mode improves performance and reduces flash wear because there would
be no journal writes.

Remove use of the blk_limits_io_{min,opt} and assign the values directly
to the queue_limits structure.  For the io_opt this is a completely
mechanical change, for io_min it removes flooring the limit to the
physical and logical block size in the particular caller.  But as
blk_validate_limits will do the same later when actually applying the
limits, there still is no change in overall behavior.
