Pull aio changes from Ben LaHaise:
 "First off, sorry for this pull request being late in the merge window.
  Al had raised a couple of concerns about 2 items in the series below.
  I addressed the first issue (the race introduced by Gu's use of
  mm_populate()), but he has not provided any further details on how he
  wants to rework the anon_inode.c changes (which were sent out months
  ago but have yet to be commented on).

  The bulk of the changes have been sitting in the -next tree for a few
  months, with all the issues raised being addressed"

Call generic_write_sync() from the deferred I/O completion handler if
O_DSYNC is set for a write request.  Also make sure various callers
don't call generic_write_sync if the direct I/O code returns
-EIOCBQUEUED.

Based on an earlier patch from Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> with updates from
Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> and Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@oracle.com>.

This code doesn't serve any purpose anymore, since the aio retry
infrastructure has been removed.

This change should be safe because aio_read/write are also used for
synchronous IO, and called from do_sync_read()/do_sync_write() - and
there's no looping done in the sync case (the read and write syscalls).

Pull core block IO updates from Jens Axboe:
 "Here are the core IO block bits for 3.11. It contains:

   - A tweak to the reserved tag logic from Jan, for weirdo devices with
     just 3 free tags.  But for those it improves things substantially
     for random writes.

   - Periodic writeback fix from Jan.  Marked for stable as well.

   - Fix for a race condition in IO scheduler switching from Jianpeng.

   - The hierarchical blk-cgroup support from Tejun.  This is the grunt
     of the series.

   - blk-throttle fix from Vivek.

  Just a note that I'm in the middle of a relocation, whole family is
  flying out tomorrow.  Hence I will be awal the remainder of this week,
  but back at work again on Monday the 15th.  CC'ing Tejun, since any
  potential "surprises" will most likely be from the blk-cgroup work.
  But it's been brewing for a while and sitting in my tree and
  linux-next for a long time, so should be solid."

It is very likely that block device inode will be part of BDI dirty list
as well. However it doesn't make sence to sort inodes on the b_io list
just because of this inode (as it contains buffers all over the device
anyway). So save some CPU cycles which is valuable since we hold relatively
contented wb->list_lock.

Page reclaim keeps track of dirty and under writeback pages and uses it
to determine if wait_iff_congested() should stall or if kswapd should
begin writing back pages.  This fails to account for buffer pages that
can be under writeback but not PageWriteback which is the case for
filesystems like ext3 ordered mode.  Furthermore, PageDirty buffer pages
can have all the buffers clean and writepage does no IO so it should not
be accounted as congested.

This patch adds an address_space operation that filesystems may
optionally use to check if a page is really dirty or really under
writeback.  An implementation is provided for for buffer_heads is added
and used for block operations and ext3 in ordered mode.  By default the
page flags are obeyed.

Credit goes to Jan Kara for identifying that the page flags alone are
not sufficient for ext3 and sanity checking a number of ideas on how the
problem could be addressed.

Code in blkdev.c moves a device inode to default_backing_dev_info when
the last reference to the device is put and moves the device inode back
to its bdi when the first reference is acquired. This includes moving to
wb.b_dirty list if the device inode is dirty. The code however doesn't
setup timer to wake corresponding flusher thread and while wb.b_dirty
list is non-empty __mark_inode_dirty() will not set it up either. Thus
periodic writeback is effectively disabled until a sync(2) call which can
lead to unexpected data loss in case of crash or power failure.

Fix the problem by setting up a timer for periodic writeback in case we
add the first dirty inode to wb.b_dirty list in bdev_inode_switch_bdi().
