Don't allow splice() to files opened with O_APPEND
This is debatable, but while we're debating it, let's disallow the
combination of splice and an O_APPEND destination.
It's not entirely clear what the semantics of O_APPEND should be, and
POSIX apparently expects pwrite() to ignore O_APPEND, for example. So
we could make up any semantics we want, including the old ones.
But Miklos convinced me that we should at least give it some thought,
and that accepting writes at arbitrary offsets is wrong at least for
IS_APPEND() files (which always have O_APPEND set, even if the reverse
isn't true: you can obviously have O_APPEND set on a regular file).
So disallow O_APPEND entirely for now. I doubt anybody cares, and this

block: remove end_{queued|dequeued}_request()
This patch removes end_queued_request() and end_dequeued_request(),
which are no longer used.
As a results, users of __end_request() became only end_request().
So the actual code in __end_request() is moved to end_request()
and __end_request() is removed.

This patch converts elevator to use __blk_end_request() directly

gdrom: change to use __blk_end_request()
This patch converts gdrom to use __blk_end_request() directly
so that end_{queued|dequeued}_request() can be removed.
gd.transfer is '1' in error cases and '0' in non-error cases,
so gdrom hasn't been propagating any error code to the block layer.
We can just convert error cases to '-EIO'.

blktrace: use BLKTRACE_BDEV_SIZE as the name size for setup structure
Define as 32, which is is what BDEVNAME_SIZE is/was as well. This keeps
the user interface the same and gets rid of the difference between
kernel and user api here.

block: add lld busy state exporting interface
This patch adds an new interface, blk_lld_busy(), to check lld's
busy state from the block layer.
blk_lld_busy() calls down into low-level drivers for the checking
if the drivers set q->lld_busy_fn() using blk_queue_lld_busy().
This resolves a performance problem on request stacking devices below.
Some drivers like scsi mid layer stop dispatching request when
they detect busy state on its low-level device like host/target/device.
It allows other requests to stay in the I/O scheduler's queue
for a chance of merging.
Request stacking drivers like request-based dm should follow
the same logic.
However, there is no generic interface for the stacked device
to check if the underlying device(s) are busy.
If the request stacking driver dispatches and submits requests to
the busy underlying device, the requests will stay in
the underlying device's queue without a chance of merging.
This causes performance problem on burst I/O load.
With this patch, busy state of the underlying device is exported
via q->lld_busy_fn(). So the request stacking driver can check it
and stop dispatching requests if busy.
The underlying device driver must return the busy state appropriately:
1: when the device driver can't process requests immediately.
0: when the device driver can process requests immediately,
including abnormal situations where the device driver needs
to kill all requests.

block: Fix blk_start_queueing() to not kick a stopped queue
blk_start_queueing() should act like the generic queue unplugging
and kicking and ignore a stopped queue. Such a queue may not be
run until after a call to blk_start_queue().

include blktrace_api.h in headers_install
This header file is of interest for user space programming, i.e.
for tools that process blktrace data.
We would like to use it for a tool on-top of blktrace which processes
data provided by blktrace. For this purpose, it would be helpful
if the blktrace API would make it to /usr/include/linux.
The git tree for the blktrace tools comes with its own copy of this header
file. I didn't manage to replace that copy with the file generated
by the patch below yet. A few more cleanups would be needed.
For example, the blktrace ioctl numbers, which are currently defined in
usr/include/fs.h, might need to be moved. Should be feasible, though.

By only allowing async IO to consume 3/4 ths of the tag depth, we
always have slots free to serve sync IO. This is important to avoid
having writes fill the entire tag queue, thus starving reads.
