mpage: stop using bdev_{read,write}_page

Browse Source 
Patch series "remove ->rw_page".

This series removes the ->rw_page block_device_operation, which is an old
and clumsy attempt at a simple read/write fast path for the block layer. 
It isn't actually used by the fastest block layer operations that we
support (polled I/O through io_uring), but only used by the mpage buffered
I/O helpers which are some of the slowest I/O we have and do not make any
difference there at all, and zram which is a block device abused to
duplicate the zram functionality.

Given that zram is heavily used we need to make sure there is a good
replacement for synchronous I/O, so this series adds a new flag for
drivers that complete I/O synchronously and uses that flag to use on-stack
bios and synchronous submission for them in the swap code.


This patch (of 7):

These are micro-optimizations for synchronous I/O, which do not matter
compared to all the other inefficiencies in the legacy buffer_head based
mpage code.
