Modify the Block I/O cgroup subsystem to be able to be built as a module.
As the CFQ disk scheduler optionally depends on blk-cgroup, config options
in block/Kconfig, block/Kconfig.iosched, and block/blk-cgroup.h are
enhanced to support the new module dependency.

Constify struct sysfs_ops.
This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.
Benefits of this constification:
* prevents modification of data that is shared
(referenced) by many other structure instances
at runtime
* detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
modification attempts on archs that enforce
read-only kernel data at runtime
* potentially better optimized code as the compiler
can assume that the const data cannot be changed
* the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
and therefore exclude them from false sharing

Alex Shi reported a kbuild regression which is about 10% performance lost.
He bisected to this commit: 3dde36ddea3e07dd025c4c1ba47edec91606fec0.
The reason is cfqq_close() can't find close cooperator. Restoring
cfq_rq_close()'s threshold to original value makes the regression go away.
Since for_preempt parameter isn't used anymore, this patch deletes it.

lcm() was defined to take integer-sized arguments. The supplied
arguments are multiplied, however, causing us to overflow given
sufficiently large input. That in turn led to incorrect optimal I/O
size reporting in some cases (RAID over RAID).
Switch lcm() over to unsigned long similar to gcd() and move the
function from blk-settings.c to lib.

Currently a queue can only dispatch up to 4 requests if there are other queues.
This isn't optimal, device can handle more requests, for example, AHCI can
handle 31 requests. I can understand the limit is for fairness, but we could
do a tweak: if the queue still has a lot of slice left, sounds we could
ignore the limit. Test shows this boost my workload (two thread randread of
a SSD) from 78m/s to 100m/s.
Thanks for suggestions from Corrado and Vivek for the patch.

Counters for requests "in flight" and "in driver" are used asymmetrically
in cfq_may_dispatch, and have slightly different meaning.
We split the rq_in_flight counter (was sync_flight) to count both sync
and async requests, in order to use this one, which is more accurate in
some corner cases.
The rq_in_driver counter is coalesced, since individual sync/async counts
are not used any more.

CFQ currently applies the same logic of detecting seeky queues and
grouping them together for rotational disks as well as SSDs.
For SSDs, the time to complete a request doesn't depend on the
request location, but only on the size.
This patch therefore changes the criterion to group queues by
request size in case of SSDs, in order to achieve better fairness.

Current seeky detection is based on average seek lenght.
This is suboptimal, since the average will not distinguish between:
* a process doing medium sized seeks
* a process doing some sequential requests interleaved with larger seeks
and even a medium seek can take lot of time, if the requested sector
happens to be behind the disk head in the rotation (50% probability).
Therefore, we change the seeky queue detection to work as follows:
* each request can be classified as sequential if it is very close to
the current head position, i.e. it is likely in the disk cache (disks
usually read more data than requested, and put it in cache for
subsequent reads). Otherwise, the request is classified as seeky.
* an history window of the last 32 requests is kept, storing the
classification result.
* A queue is marked as seeky if more than 1/8 of the last 32 requests
were seeky.

The block layer calling convention is blk_queue_<limit name>.
blk_queue_max_sectors predates this practice, leading to some confusion.
Rename the function to appropriately reflect that its intended use is to
set max_hw_sectors.
Also introduce a temporary wrapper for backwards compability. This can
be removed after the merge window is closed.

Few weeks back, Shaohua Li had posted similar patch. I am reposting it
with more test results.
This patch does two things.
- Do not idle on async queues.
- It also changes the write queue depth CFQ drives (cfq_may_dispatch()).
Currently, we seem to driving queue depth of 1 always for WRITES. This is
true even if there is only one write queue in the system and all the logic
of infinite queue depth in case of single busy queue as well as slowly
increasing queue depth based on last delayed sync request does not seem to
be kicking in at all.
This patch will allow deeper WRITE queue depths (subjected to the other
WRITE queue depth contstraints like cfq_quantum and last delayed sync
request).
Shaohua Li had reported getting more out of his SSD. For me, I have got
one Lun exported from an HP EVA and when pure buffered writes are on, I
can get more out of the system. Following are test results of pure
buffered writes (with end_fsync=1) with vanilla and patched kernel. These
results are average of 3 sets of run with increasing number of threads.
AVERAGE[bufwfs][vanilla]

bufwfs 3 8 0 0 260960 2.62979e+06
bufwfs 3 16 0 0 299260 1.70731e+06
I also ran buffered writes along with some sequential reads and some
buffered reads going on in the system on a SATA disk because the potential
risk could be that we should not be driving queue depth higher in presence
of sync IO going to keep the max clat low.
With some random and sequential reads going on in the system on one SATA
disk I did not see any significant increase in max clat. So it looks like
other WRITE queue depth control logic is doing its job. Here are the
results.

In cfq_should_preempt(), we currently allow some cases where a non-RT request
can preempt an ongoing RT cfqq timeslice. This should not happen.
Examples include:
o A sync_noidle wl type non-RT request pre-empting a sync_noidle wl type cfqq
on which we are idling.
o Once we have per-cgroup async queues, a non-RT sync request pre-empting a RT
async cfqq.

Also massage the reporting so that an error is only returned if adding

partitions to report an incorrect alignment_offset. Since offset

o CFQ now internally divides cfq queues in therr workload categories. sync-idle,
sync-noidle and async. Which workload to run depends primarily on rb_key
offset across three service trees. Which is a combination of mulitiple things
including what time queue got queued on the service tree.
There is one exception though. That is if we switched the prio class, say
we served some RT tasks and again started serving BE class, then with-in
BE class we always started with sync-noidle workload irrespective of rb_key
offset in service trees.
This can provide better latencies for sync-noidle workload in the presence
of RT tasks.
o This patch gets rid of that exception and which workload to run with-in
class always depends on lowest rb_key across service trees. The reason
being that now we have multiple BE class groups and if we always switch
to sync-noidle workload with-in group, we can potentially starve a sync-idle
workload with-in group. Same is true for async workload which will be in
root group. Also the workload-switching with-in group will become very
unpredictable as it now depends whether some RT workload was running in
the system or not.

o allow_merge() already checks if submitting task is pointing to same cfqq
as rq has been queued in. If everything is fine, we should not be having
a task in one cgroup and having a pointer to cfqq in other cgroup.
Well I guess in some situations it can happen and that is, when a random
IO queue has been moved into root cgroup for group_isolation=0. In
this case, tasks's cgroup/group is different from where actually cfqq is,
but this is intentional and in this case merging should be allowed.
The second situation is where due to close cooperator patches, multiple
processes can be sharing a cfqq. If everything implemented right, we should
not end up in a situation where tasks from different processes in different
groups are sharing the same cfqq as we allow merging of cooperating queues
only if they are in same group.

Commit 86b37281411cf1e9bc0a6b5406c45edb7bd9ea5d adds a check for
misaligned stacking offsets, but it's buggy since the defaults are 0.
Hence all dm devices that pass in a non-zero starting offset will
be marked as misaligned amd dm will complain.
A real fix is coming, in the mean time disable the discard granularity
check so that users don't worry about dm reporting about misaligned
devices.

When a group is resumed, if it doesn't have workload slice left,
we should set workload_expires as expired. Otherwise, we might
start from where we left in previous group by error.

Please find attached the patch to fix it. I have done some stress testing
with it and have not seen it happening again.
o We should wait on a queue even after slice expiry only if it is empty. If
queue is not empty then continue to expire it.
o If we decide to keep the queue then make cfqq=NULL. Otherwise select_queue()
will return a valid cfqq and cfq_dispatch_request() can hit following
BUG_ON().

If there is a sequential reader running in a group, we wait for next request
to come in that group after slice expiry and once new request is in, we expire
the queue. Otherwise we delete the group from service tree and group looses
its fair share.
So far I was marking a queue as wait_busy if it had consumed its slice and
it was last queue in the group. But this condition did not cover following
two cases.
1.If a request completed and slice has not expired yet. Next request comes
in and is dispatched to disk. Now select_queue() hits and slice has expired.
This group will be deleted. Because request is still in the disk, this queue
will never get a chance to wait_busy.
2.If request completed and slice has not expired yet. Before next request
comes in (delay due to think time), select_queue() hits and expires the
queue hence group. This queue never got a chance to wait busy.
Gui was hitting the boundary condition 1 and not getting fairness numbers
proportional to weight.
This patch puts the checks for above two conditions and improves the fairness
numbers for sequential workload on rotational media. Check in select_queue()
takes care of case 1 and additional check in should_wait_busy() takes care
of case 2.
