commit e727c42bd55794765c460b7ac2b6cc969f2a9698 upstream.

The new integrity code did not correctly unregister the profile for SD
disks. Call blk_integrity_unregister() when we release a disk.

<title>sd: Fix max transfer length for 4k disks</title>

<id>3a9794d32984b67a6d8992226918618f0e51e5d5</id>
<content type='text'>
The following patch fixes an issue observed with 4k sector disks
where the max_hw_sectors attribute was getting set too large in
sd_revalidate_disk. Since sdkp-&gt;max_xfer_blocks is in units
of SCSI logical blocks and queue_max_hw_sectors is in units of
512 byte blocks, on a 4k sector disk, every time we went through
sd_revalidate_disk, we were taking the current value of
queue_max_hw_sectors and increasing it by a factor of 8. Fix
this by only shifting sdkp-&gt;max_xfer_blocks.

<title>sd: tweak discard heuristics to work around QEMU SCSI issue</title>

7985090aa020 changed the discard heuristics to give preference to the
WRITE SAME commands that (unlike UNMAP) guarantee deterministic results.

Ming Lei discovered that QEMU SCSI's WRITE SAME implementation
internally relied on limits that were only communicated for the UNMAP
case. And therefore discard commands backed by WRITE SAME would fail.

Tweak the heuristics so we still pick UNMAP in the LBPRZ=0 case and only
prefer the WRITE SAME variants if the device has the LBPRZ flag set.

There is no reason for ULDs to pass in a flag on how to allocate the S/G
lists.  While we don't need GFP_ATOMIC for the blk-mq case because we
don't hold locks, that decision can be made way down the chain without
having to pass a pointless gfp_mask argument.

The T10 SBC UNMAP command does not provide any hard guarantees that
blocks will return zeroes on a subsequent READ. This is due to the fact
that the device server is free to silently ignore all or parts of the
request.

The only way to ensure that a block consistently returns zeroes after
being unmapped is to use WRITE SAME with the UNMAP bit set. Should the
device be unable to unmap one or more blocks described by the command it
is required to manually write zeroes to them.

Until now we have preferred UNMAP over the WRITE SAME variants to
accommodate thinly provisioned devices that predated the final SBC-3
spec. This patch changes the heuristic so that we favor WRITE SAME(16)
or (10) over UNMAP if these commands are marked as supported in the
Logical Block Provisioning VPD page.

The patch also disables discard_zeroes_data for devices operating in
UNMAP mode.
