block: row: Fix crash when adding a new field in bio struct

When adding new field to struct bio there is a crash in the removed
code lines. This issue was introduced by commit
80a8f0f87bee18283e9ca0a8966ec97ad9f084e5 "block: row-iosched idling
triggered by readahead pages"

(Partly) reverting this patch till root cause is fixed (on FS level).

block: don't assume last put of shared tags is for the host

commit d45b3279a5a2252cafcd665bbf2db8c9b31ef783 upstream.

There is no inherent reason why the last put of a tag structure must be
the one for the Scsi_Host, as device model objects can be held for
arbitrary periods.  Merge blk_free_tags and __blk_free_tags into a single
funtion that just release a references and get rid of the BUG() when the
host reference wasn't the last.

block: row: Remove warning massage from add_request

Regular priority queues is marked as "starved" if it skipped a dispatch
due to being empty. When a new request is added to a "starved" queue
it will be marked as urgent.
The removed WARN_ON was warning about an impossible case when a regular
priority (read) queue was marked as starved but wasn't empty. This is
a possible case due to the bellow:
If the device driver fetched a read request that is pending for
transmission and an URGENT request arrives, the fetched read will be
reinserted back to the scheduler. Its possible that the queue it will be
reinserted to was marked as "starved" in the meanwhile due to being empty.

Revert "block: Add URGENT request notification support to CFQ scheduler"

This reverts commit b410a82118cdaa1dc92759e7995c20dcce0d1f1a.
The reverted commit was identified as the cause of the FS error
mentioned in the CR bellow.
It's reverted till further annalists of the root cause of FS error.

block/partitions: optimize memory allocation in check_partition()

Currently, sizeof(struct parsed_partitions) may be 64KB in 32bit arch, so
it is easy to trigger page allocation failure by check_partition,
especially in hotplug block device situation(such as, USB mass storage,
MMC card, ...), and Felipe Balbi has observed the failure.

This patch does below optimizations on the allocation of struct
parsed_partitions to try to address the issue:

- make parsed_partitions.parts as pointer so that the pointed memory can
  fit in 32KB buffer, then approximate 32KB memory can be saved

- vmalloc the buffer pointed by parsed_partitions.parts because 32KB is
  still a bit big for kmalloc

- given that many devices have the partition count limit, so only
  allocate disk_max_parts() partitions instead of 256 partitions always

block: Reserve only one queue tag for sync IO if only 3 tags are available

In case a device has three tags available we still reserve two of them
for sync IO. That leaves only a single tag for async IO such as
writeback from flusher thread which results in poor performance.

Allow async IO to consume two tags in case queue has three tag availabe
to get a decent async write performance.

This patch improves streaming write performance on a machine with such disk
from ~21 MB/s to ~52 MB/s. Also postmark throughput in presence of
streaming writer improves from 8 to 12 transactions per second so sync
IO doesn't seem to be harmed in presence of heavy async writer.

block: add cond_resched() to potentially long running ioctl discard loop

commit c8123f8c9cb517403b51aa41c3c46ff5e10b2c17 upstream.

When mkfs issues a full device discard and the device only
supports discards of a smallish size, we can loop in
blkdev_issue_discard() for a long time. If preempt isn't enabled,
this can turn into a softlock situation and the kernel will
start complaining.

Add an explicit cond_resched() at the end of the loop to avoid
that.

block: do not notify urgent request, when flush with data in flight

MMC device driver implements URGENT request execution with priority
(using stop flow), as a result currently running (and prepared) request
may be reinserted back into I/O scheduler. This will break block layer
logic of flushes (flush request should not be inserted into I/O scheduler).

Block layer flush machinery keep q->flush_data_in_flight list updated with
started but not completed flush requests with data (REQ_FUA).

This change will not notify underling block device driver about pending
urgent request during flushes in flight.
