This patch causes device-mapper to reject any barrier requests.  This is done
since most of the targets won't handle this correctly anyway.  So until the
situation improves it is better to reject these requests at the first place.
Since barrier requests won't get to the targets, the checks there can be
removed.

<title>[PATCH] dm: mpath: use noflush suspending</title>

<id>45e157206c732613d1c07e8ceeb1a3e497fb2abf</id>
<content type='text'>
Implement the pushback feature for the multipath target.

The pushback request is used when:
  1) there are no valid paths;
  2) queue_if_no_path was set;
  3) a suspend is being issued with the DMF_NOFLUSH_SUSPENDING flag.
     Otherwise bios are returned to applications with -EIO.

To check whether queue_if_no_path is specified or not, you need to check
both queue_if_no_path and saved_queue_if_no_path, because presuspend saves
the original queue_if_no_path value to saved_queue_if_no_path.

The check for 1 already exists in both map_io() and do_end_io().
So this patch adds __must_push_back() to check 2 and 3.

Test results:
See the test results in the preceding patch.

Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.

The patch was generated using the following script:

	# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
	#

	set -e

	for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
		quilt add $file
		sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file &gt;/tmp/$$
		mv /tmp/$$ $file
