Ever since the addition of multipage bio_vecs BIO_MAX_PAGES has been
horribly confusingly misnamed.  Rename it to BIO_MAX_VECS to stop
confusing users of the bio API.

<title>iomap: Fix negative assignment to unsigned sis-&gt;pages in iomap_swapfile_activate</title>

<content type='text'>
In case if isi.nr_pages is 0, we are making sis-&gt;pages (which is
unsigned int) a huge value in iomap_swapfile_activate() by assigning -1.
This could cause a kernel crash in kernel v4.18 (with below signature).
Or could lead to unknown issues on latest kernel if the fake big swap gets
used.

Fix this issue by returning -EINVAL in case of nr_pages is 0, since it
is anyway a invalid swapfile. Looks like this issue will be hit when
we have pagesize &lt; blocksize type of configuration.

I was able to hit the issue in case of a tiny swap file with below
test script.
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/riteshharjani/LinuxStudy/master/scripts/swap-issue.sh

kernel crash analysis on v4.18
==============================
On v4.18 kernel, it causes a kernel panic, since sis-&gt;pages becomes
a huge value and isi.nr_extents is 0. When 0 is returned it is
considered as a swapfile over NFS and SWP_FILE is set (sis-&gt;flags |= SWP_FILE).
Then when swapoff was getting called it was calling a_ops-&gt;swap_deactivate()
if (sis-&gt;flags &amp; SWP_FILE) is true. Since a_ops-&gt;swap_deactivate() is
NULL in case of XFS, it causes below panic.

It's often inconvenient to use BIO_MAX_PAGES due to min() requiring the
sign to be the same.  Introduce bio_max_segs() and change BIO_MAX_PAGES to
be unsigned to make it easier for the users.

Because the iomap code using PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS to detect transaction
recursion in XFS is just wrong. Remove it from the iomap code and
replace it with XFS specific internal checks using
current-&gt;journal_info instead.

[djwong: This change also realigns the lifetime of NOFS flag changes to
match the incore transaction, instead of the inconsistent scheme we have
now.]

Fixes: 9070733b4efa ("xfs: abstract PF_FSTRANS to PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS")

Pull iomap updates from Darrick Wong:
 "The big change in this cycle is some new code to make it possible for
  XFS to try unaligned directio overwrites without taking locks. If the
  block is fully written and within EOF (i.e. doesn't require any
  further fs intervention) then we can let the unlocked write proceed.
  If not, we fall back to synchronizing direct writes.

  Summary:

   - Adjust the final parameter of iomap_dio_rw.

   - Add a new flag to request that iomap directio writes return EAGAIN
     if the write is not a pure overwrite within EOF; this will be used
     to reduce lock contention with unaligned direct writes on XFS.

   - Amend XFS' directio code to eliminate exclusive locking for
     unaligned direct writes if the circumstances permit"
