I noticed that when booting with a default blk-mq I/O scheduler, the /sys/block/*/queue/iosched directory was missing. However, switching after boot did create the directory. This is because we skip the initial elevator register/unregister when we don't have a ->request_fn(), but we should still do it for the ->mq_ops case.

.. at least for unprivileged users. Before we called into the SCSI ioctl code to allow excemptions for a few SCSI passthrough ioctls, but this is pretty unsafe and except for this call dm knows nothing about SCSI ioctls. As the SCSI ioctl code is now optional, we really don't want to drag it in for DM, and the exception is not very useful anyway.

If we end up doing a request-to-request merge when we have completed a bio-to-request merge, we free the request from deep down in that path. For blk-mq-sched, the merge path has to hold the appropriate lock, but we don't need it for freeing the request. And in fact holding the lock is problematic, since we are now calling the mq sched put_rq_private() hook with the lock held. Other call paths do not hold this lock. Fix this inconsistency by ensuring that the caller frees a merged request. Then we can do it outside of the lock, making it both more efficient and fixing the blk-mq-sched problem of invoking parts of the scheduler with an unknown lock state.

When we attempt to merge request-to-request, we return a 0/1 if we ended up merging or not. Change that to return the pointer to the request that we freed. We will use this to move the freeing of that request out of the merge logic, so that callers can drop locks before freeing the request. There should be no functional changes in this patch.

We don't always have easy access to the dentry of a file or directory we created in debugfs. Add a helper which allows us to get a dentry we previously created. The motivation for this change is a problem with blktrace and the blk-mq debugfs entries introduced in 07e4fead ("blk-mq: create debugfs directory tree"). Namely, in some cases, the directory that blktrace needs to create may already exist, but in other cases, it may not. We _could_ rely on a bunch of implied knowledge to decide whether to create the directory or not, but it's much cleaner on our end to just look it up.

Currenly blk_get_backing_dev_info() is not safe to be called when the block device is not open as bdev->bd_disk is NULL in that case.

Currently, block device inodes stay around after corresponding gendisk hash died until memory reclaim finds them and frees them. Since we will make block device inode pin the bdi, we want to free the block device inode as soon as the device goes away so that bdi does not stay around unnecessarily. Furthermore we need to avoid issues when new device with the same major,minor pair gets created since reusing the bdi structure would be rather difficult in this case. Unhashing block device inode on gendisk destruction nicely deals with these problems. Once last block device inode reference is dropped (which may be directly in del_gendisk()), the inode gets evicted. Furthermore if the major,minor pair gets reallocated, we are guaranteed to get new block device inode even if old block device inode is not yet evicted and thus we avoid issues with possible reuse of bdi.

Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it all into the operations. The little caveat here is that previously cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough operations. Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

The SCSI passthrough idea was a a bad idea to start with (guess who came up with it?), and has been removed from the virtio 1.O spec, and is not enabled by defauly by any host I know of. Add a separate config option for it so that we don't need to enable it for most setups. That way any bugs related to it (like the one recently fixed for vmapped stacks) do not affect other users, and the size of the virtblk_req structure also shrinks significantly.
