Initial EXPERIMENTAL implementation of device-mapper thin provisioning
with snapshot support. The 'thin' target is used to create instances of
the virtual devices that are hosted in the 'thin-pool' target. The
thin-pool target provides data sharing among devices. This sharing is
made possible using the persistent-data library in the previous patch.
The main highlight of this implementation, compared to the previous
implementation of snapshots, is that it allows many virtual devices to
be stored on the same data volume, simplifying administration and
allowing sharing of data between volumes (thus reducing disk usage).
Another big feature is support for arbitrary depth of recursive
snapshots (snapshots of snapshots of snapshots ...). The previous
implementation of snapshots did this by chaining together lookup tables,
and so performance was O(depth). This new implementation uses a single
data structure so we don't get this degradation with depth.

The persistent-data library offers a re-usable framework for the storage
and management of on-disk metadata in device-mapper targets.
It's used by the thin-provisioning target in the next patch and in an
upcoming hierarchical storage target.

The dm-bufio interface allows you to do cached I/O on devices,
holding recently-read blocks in memory and performing delayed writes.
We don't use buffer cache or page cache already present in the kernel, because:
* we need to handle block sizes larger than a page
* we can't allocate memory to perform reads or we'd have deadlocks
Currently, when a cache is required, we limit its size to a fraction of
available memory. Usage can be viewed and changed in
/sys/module/dm_bufio/parameters/ .
The first user is thin provisioning, but more dm users are planned.

Introduce DM_TARGET_IMMUTABLE to indicate that the target type cannot be mixed
with any other target type, and once loaded into a device, it cannot be

This patch introduces dm_kcopyd_zero() to make it easy to use
kcopyd to write zeros into the requested areas instead
instead of copying. It is implemented by passing a NULL

Commit 01e7da6ba5 ("RDMA/cxgb4: Make sure flush CQ entries are
collected on connection close") introduced a potential problem where a
CQ's comp_handler can get called simultaneously from different places
in the iw_cxgb4 driver. This does not comply with
Documentation/infiniband/core_locking.txt, which states that at a
given point of time, there should be only one callback per CQ should
be active.
This problem was reported by Parav Pandit <Parav.Pandit@Emulex.Com>.
Based on discussion between Parav Pandit and Steve Wise, this patch
fixes the above problem by serializing the calls to a CQ's
comp_handler using a spin_lock.

Now that we are doing the locking correctly, we need to grab the
i_completed_io_lock() twice per end_io. We can clean this up by
removing the structure from the i_complted_io_list, and use this as
the locking mechanism to prevent ext4_flush_completed_IO() racing
against ext4_end_io_work(), instead of clearing the
EXT4_IO_END_UNWRITTEN in io->flag.
In addition, if the ext4_convert_unwritten_extents() returns an error,
we no longer keep the end_io structure on the linked list. This
doesn't help, because it tends to lock up the file system and wedges
the system. That's one way to call attention to the problem, but it
doesn't help the overall robustness of the system.
