100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-07-20
This series contains updates to fm10k only.
Ngai-Mint provides a fix to clear PCIE_GMBX bits to ensure the proper
functioning of the mailbox global interrupt after a data path reset.
Jake provides most of the patches in the series, starting with a early
return from fm10k_down() if we are already down to prevent conflict with
other threads. Fixed an issue where fm10k_update_stats() could cause
a null pointer dereference, specifically if it is called when we are going
down and the rings have been removed. Cleans up and fixes the data path
reset flow, Tx hang routine and stop_hw(). Re-worked the fm10k_reinit()
to be more maintainable and fixed several inconsistencies with the work
flow. Implemented fm10k_prepare_suspend() and fm10k_handle_resume()
which abstract around the now existing fm10k_prepare_for_reset and
fm10k_handle_reset. The new functions also handle stopping the service
task, which is something that the original re-init flow does not need.
Fixed an issue where if an FLR occurs, VF devices will be knocked out of
bus master mode, and the driver will be unable to recover from the reset
properly, so ensure bus master is enabled after every reset. Fixed an
issue where a reset will occur as if for no reason, regularly every few
minutes until the switch manager software is loaded, which is caused
by continuously requesting the lport map so only do the request after
we have verified the switch mailbox is tx_ready.

net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: rework EEPROM code
Some switches can access an optional external EEPROM via its registers.
The 88E6352 family of switches have 8-bit address / 16-bit data access.
The new 88E6390 family has 16-bit address / 8-bit data access.
This patchset cleans up the EEPROM code with 16-suffixed Global2 helpers
and makes it easy to add future support for 8-bit data EEPROM access.
It also removes unnecessary mutexes and a few locked access functions.

The 6352 family of switches and compatibles provide a 8-bit address and
16-bit data access to an optional EEPROM.
Newer chip such as the 6390 family slightly changed the access to 16-bit
address and 8-bit data.
This commit cleans up the EEPROM access code for 16-bit access and makes
it easy to eventually introduce future support for 8-bit access.
Here's a list of notable changes brought by this patch:
- provide Global2 unlocked helpers for EEPROM commands
- remove eeprom_mutex, only reg_lock is necessary for driver functions
- eeprom_len is 0 for chip without EEPROM, so return it directly
- the Running bit must be 0 before r/w, so wait for Busy *and* Running
- remove now unused mv88e6xxx_wait and mv88e6xxx_reg_write
- other than that, the logic (in _{get,set}_eeprom16) didn't change
Chips with an 8-bit EEPROM access will require to implement the
8-suffixed variant of G2 helpers and the related flag:
#define MV88E6XXX_FLAGS_EEPROM8 \
(MV88E6XXX_FLAG_G2_EEPROM_CMD | \
MV88E6XXX_FLAG_G2_EEPROM_ADDR)

Change mapped device to implement direct_access function,
dm_blk_direct_access(), which calls a target direct_access function.
'struct target_type' is extended to have target direct_access interface.
This function limits direct accessible size to the dm_target's limit

Add dm_table_supports_dax() to iterate all targets and associated block
devices to check for DAX support. To add DAX support to a DM target the
target must only implement the direct_access function.
Add a new dm type, DM_TYPE_DAX_BIO_BASED, which indicates that mapped
device supports DAX and is bio based. This new type is used to assure
that all target devices have DAX support and remain that way after
QUEUE_FLAG_DAX is set in mapped device.
At initial table load, QUEUE_FLAG_DAX is set to mapped device when setting
DM_TYPE_DAX_BIO_BASED to the type. Any subsequent table load to the
mapped device must have the same type, or else it fails per the check in
table_load().

Before merging a bio into an existing request, io scheduler is called to
get its approval first. However, the requests that come from a plug
flush may get merged by block layer without consulting with io
scheduler.
In case of CFQ, this can cause fairness problems. For instance, if a
request gets merged into a low weight cgroup's request, high weight cgroup
now will depend on low weight cgroup to get scheduled. If high weigt cgroup
needs that io request to complete before submitting more requests, then it
will also lose its timeslice.
Following script demonstrates the problem. Group g1 has a low weight, g2
and g3 have equal high weights but g2's requests are adjacent to g1's
requests so they are subject to merging. Due to these merges, g2 gets
poor disk time allocation.
