Linus Torvalds 681a289548 Merge branch 'for-3.16/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block into next
Pull block core updates from Jens Axboe:
 "It's a big(ish) round this time, lots of development effort has gone
  into blk-mq in the last 3 months.  Generally we're heading to where
  3.16 will be a feature complete and performant blk-mq.  scsi-mq is
  progressing nicely and will hopefully be in 3.17.  A nvme port is in
  progress, and the Micron pci-e flash driver, mtip32xx, is converted
  and will be sent in with the driver pull request for 3.16.

  This pull request contains:

   - Lots of prep and support patches for scsi-mq have been integrated.
     All from Christoph.

   - API and code cleanups for blk-mq from Christoph.

   - Lots of good corner case and error handling cleanup fixes for
     blk-mq from Ming Lei.

   - A flew of blk-mq updates from me:

     * Provide strict mappings so that the driver can rely on the CPU
       to queue mapping.  This enables optimizations in the driver.

     * Provided a bitmap tagging instead of percpu_ida, which never
       really worked well for blk-mq.  percpu_ida relies on the fact
       that we have a lot more tags available than we really need, it
       fails miserably for cases where we exhaust (or are close to
       exhausting) the tag space.

     * Provide sane support for shared tag maps, as utilized by scsi-mq

     * Various fixes for IO timeouts.

     * API cleanups, and lots of perf tweaks and optimizations.

   - Remove 'buffer' from struct request.  This is ancient code, from
     when requests were always virtually mapped.  Kill it, to reclaim
     some space in struct request.  From me.

   - Remove 'magic' from blk_plug.  Since we store these on the stack
     and since we've never caught any actual bugs with this, lets just
     get rid of it.  From me.

   - Only call part_in_flight() once for IO completion, as includes two
     atomic reads.  Hopefully we'll get a better implementation soon, as
     the part IO stats are now one of the more expensive parts of doing
     IO on blk-mq.  From me.

   - File migration of block code from {mm,fs}/ to block/.  This
     includes bio.c, bio-integrity.c, bounce.c, and ioprio.c.  From me,
     from a discussion on lkml.

  That should describe the meat of the pull request.  Also has various
  little fixes and cleanups from Dave Jones, Shaohua Li, Duan Jiong,
  Fengguang Wu, Fabian Frederick, Randy Dunlap, Robert Elliott, and Sam
  Bradshaw"
