md/raid5: fix interaction of 'replace' and 'recovery'.
md/raid10: remove use-after-free bug.
If a device in a RAID4/5/6 is being replaced while another is being
recovered, then the writes to the replacement device currently don't
happen, resulting in corruption when the replacement completes and the
new drive takes over.
This is because the replacement writes are only triggered when
's.replacing' is set and not when the similar 's.sync' is set (which
is the case during resync and recovery - it means all devices need to
be read).
So schedule those writes when s.replacing is set as well.
In this case we cannot use "STRIPE_INSYNC" to record that the
replacement has happened as that is needed for recording that any
parity calculation is complete. So introduce STRIPE_REPLACED to
record if the replacement has happened.
For safety we should also check that STRIPE_COMPUTE_RUN is not set.
This has a similar effect to the "s.locked == 0" test. The latter
ensure that now IO has been flagged but not started. The former
checks if any parity calculation has been flagged by not started.
We must wait for both of these to complete before triggering the
'replace'.
Add a similar test to the subsequent check for "are we finished yet".
This possibly isn't needed (is subsumed in the STRIPE_INSYNC test),
but it makes it more obvious that the REPLACE will happen before we
think we are finished.
Finally if a NeedReplace device is not UPTODATE then that is an
error. We really must trigger a warning.
This bug was introduced in commit 9a3e1101b8
(md/raid5: detect and handle replacements during recovery.)
which introduced replacement for raid5.
That was in 3.3-rc3, so any stable kernel since then would benefit
from this fix.

Recent change to use bio_copy_data() in raid1 when repairing
an array is faulty.
The underlying may have changed the bio in various ways using
bio_advance and these need to be undone not just for the 'sbio' which
is being copied to, but also the 'pbio' (primary) which is being
copied from.
So perform the reset on all bios that were read from and do it early.
This also ensure that the sbio->bi_io_vec[j].bv_len passed to
memcmp is correct.
This fixes a crash during a 'check' of a RAID1 array. The crash was
introduced in 3.10 so this is suitable for 3.10-stable.

commit 7ceb17e87b
md: Allow devices to be re-added to a read-only array.
allowed a bit more than just that. It also allows devices to be added
to a read-write array and to end up skipping recovery.
This patch removes the offending piece of code pending a rewrite for a
subsequent release.
More specifically:
If the array has a bitmap, then the device will still need a bitmap
based resync ('saved_raid_disk' is set under different conditions
is a bitmap is present).
If the array doesn't have a bitmap, then this is correct as long as
nothing has been written to the array since the metadata was checked
by ->validate_super. However there is no locking to ensure that there
was no write.
Bug was introduced in 3.10 and causes data corruption so
patch is suitable for 3.10-stable.

1/ When an different between blocks is found, data is copied from
one bio to the other. However bv_len is used as the length to
copy and this could be zero. So use r10_bio->sectors to calculate
length instead.
Using bv_len was probably always a bit dubious, but the introduction
of bio_advance made it much more likely to be a problem.
2/ When preparing some blocks for sync, we don't set BIO_UPTODATE
except on bios that we schedule for a read. This ensures that
missing/failed devices don't confuse the loop at the top of
sync_request write.
Commit 8be185f2c9 "raid10: Use bio_reset()"
removed a loop which set BIO_UPTDATE on all appropriate bios.
So we need to re-add that flag.
These bugs were introduced in 3.10, so this patch is suitable for
3.10-stable, and can remove a potential for data corruption.

Part of the job of garbage collection is to add up however many sectors
of live data it finds in each bucket, but that doesn't work very well if
it doesn't reset GC_SECTORS_USED() when it starts. Whoops.

The journal replay code starts by finding something that looks like a
valid journal entry, then it does a binary search over the unchecked
region of the journal for the journal entries with the highest sequence
numbers.
Trouble is, the logic was wrong - journal_read_bucket() returns true if
it found journal entries we need, but if the range of journal entries
we're looking for loops around the end of the journal - in that case
journal_read_bucket() could return true when it hadn't found the highest
sequence number we'd seen yet, and in that case the binary search did
the wrong thing. Whoops.

Trouble is, when remaining goes to 0 and we've got nothing more to run -

This patch removes "io_lock" and "map_lock" in struct mapped_device and
"holders" in struct dm_table and replaces these mechanisms with
sleepable-rcu.
Previously, the code would call "dm_get_live_table" and "dm_table_put" to
get and release table. Now, the code is changed to call "dm_get_live_table"
and "dm_put_live_table". dm_get_live_table locks sleepable-rcu and
dm_put_live_table unlocks it.
dm_get_live_table_fast/dm_put_live_table_fast can be used instead of
dm_get_live_table/dm_put_live_table. These *_fast functions use
non-sleepable RCU, so the caller must not block between them.
If the code changes active or inactive dm table, it must call
dm_sync_table before destroying the old table.

Fix a boundary condition that caused failure for certain device sizes.
The problem is reported at
http://code.google.com/p/cryptsetup/issues/detail?id=160
For certain device sizes the number of hashes at a specific level was
calculated incorrectly.
It happens for example for a device with data and metadata block size 4096
that has 16385 blocks and algorithm sha256.
The user can test if he is affected by this bug by running the
"veritysetup verify" command and also by activating the dm-verity kernel
driver and reading the whole block device. If it passes without an error,
then the user is not affected.
The condition for the bug is:
Split the total number of data blocks (data_block_bits) into bit strings,
each string has hash_per_block_bits bits. hash_per_block_bits is
rounddown(log2(metadata_block_size/hash_digest_size)). Equivalently, you
can say that you convert data_blocks_bits to 2^hash_per_block_bits base.
If there some zero bit string below the most significant bit string and at
least one bit below this zero bit string is set, then the bug happens.
The same bug exists in the userspace veritysetup tool, so you must use
fixed veritysetup too if you want to use devices that are affected by
this boundary condition.

md/raid10: Allow skipping recovery when clean arrays are assembled
Causes raid10 to skip a recovery in certain cases where it is safe to
do so. Unfortunately it also causes a reshape to be skipped which is
never safe. The result is that an attempt to reshape a RAID10 will
appear to complete instantly, but no data will have been moves so the
array will now contain garbage.
(If nothing is written, you can recovery by simple performing the
reverse reshape which will also complete instantly).
Bug was introduced in 3.10, so this is suitable for 3.10-stable.

There is a bug in 'check_reshape' for raid5.c To checks
that the new minimum number of devices is large enough (which is
good), but it does so also after the reshape has started (bad).
This is bad because
- the calculation is now wrong as mddev->raid_disks has changed
already, and
- it is pointless because it is now too late to stop.
So only perform that test when reshape has not been committed to.

1/ If a RAID10 is being reshaped to a fewer number of devices
and is stopped while this is ongoing, then when the array is
reassembled the 'mirrors' array will be allocated too small.
This will lead to an access error or memory corruption.
2/ A sanity test for a reshaping RAID10 array is restarted
is slightly incorrect.
Due to the first bug, this is suitable for any -stable
kernel since 3.5 where this code was introduced.

Bcache used to have a workaround for allocating from a bio set under
generic_make_request() (if you allocated more than once, the bios you
already allocated would get stuck on current->bio_list when you
submitted, and you'd risk deadlock) - bcache would mask out __GFP_WAIT
when allocating bios under generic_make_request() so that allocation
could fail and it could retry from workqueue. But bio_alloc_bioset() has
a workaround now, so we can drop this hack and the associated error

Converted some of the pr_debug()s to tracepoints - this is partly a
performance optimization; it used to be that with DEBUG or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG pr_debug() was an empty macro; but at some point it
was changed to an empty inline function.
Some of the pr_debug() statements had rather expensive function calls as
part of the arguments, so this code was getting run unnecessarily even
on non debug kernels - in some fast paths, too.

The most significant change is that btree reads are now done
synchronously, instead of asynchronously and doing the post read stuff
from a workqueue.
This was originally done because we can't block on IO under
generic_make_request(). But - we already have a mechanism to punt cache
lookups to workqueue if needed, so if we just use that we don't have to
deal with the complexity of doing things asynchronously.
The main benefit is this makes the locking situation saner; we can hold
our write lock on the btree node until we're finished reading it, and we
don't need that btree_node_read_done() flag anymore.
Also, for writes, btree_write() was broken out into btree_node_write()
and btree_leaf_dirty() - the old code with the boolean argument was dumb
and confusing.
The prio_blocked mechanism was improved a bit too, now the only counter
is in struct btree_write, we don't mess with transfering a count from
struct btree anymore.
This required changing garbage collection to block prios at the start
and unblock when it finishes, which is cleaner than what it was doing
anyways (the old code had mostly the same effect, but was doing it in a
convoluted way)
And the btree iter btree_node_read_done() uses was converted to a real
mempool.

MD: Remember the last sync operation that was performed
This patch adds a field to the mddev structure to track the last
sync operation that was performed. This is especially useful when
it comes to what is recorded in mismatch_cnt in sysfs. If the
last operation was "data-check", then it reports the number of
descrepancies found by the user-initiated check. If it was a
"repair" operation, then it is reporting the number of
descrepancies repaired. etc.

RAID5 uses a 'per-array' value for the 'size' of each device.
RAID0 uses a 'per-device' value - it can be different for each device.
When converting a RAID5 to a RAID0 we must ensure that the per-device
size of each device matches the per-array size for the RAID5, else
the array will change size.
If the metadata cannot record a changed per-device size (as is the
case with v0.90 metadata) the array could get bigger on restart. This
does not cause data corruption, so it not a big issue and is mainly
yet another a reason to not use 0.90.

It isn't really enough to check that the rdev is present, we need to
also be sure that the device is still In_sync.
Doing this requires using rcu_dereference to access the rdev, and
holding the rcu_read_lock() to ensure the rdev doesn't disappear while
we look at it.

As 'enough' accesses conf->prev and conf->geo, which can change
spontanously, it should guard against changes.
This can be done with device_lock as start_reshape holds device_lock
while updating 'geo' and end_reshape holds it while updating 'prev'.
So 'error' needs to hold 'device_lock'.
On the other hand, raid10_end_read_request knows which of the two it
really wants to access, and as it is an active request on that one,
the value cannot change underneath it.
So change _enough to take flag rather than a pointer, pass the
appropriate flag from raid10_end_read_request(), and remove the locking.
All other calls to 'enough' are made with reconfig_mutex held, so
neither 'prev' nor 'geo' can change.

DM RAID: Fix raid_resume not reviving failed devices in all cases
When a device fails in a RAID array, it is marked as Faulty. Later,
md_check_recovery is called which (through the call chain) calls
'hot_remove_disk' in order to have the personalities remove the device
from use in the array.
Sometimes, it is possible for the array to be suspended before the
personalities get their chance to perform 'hot_remove_disk'. This is
normally not an issue. If the array is deactivated, then the failed
device will be noticed when the array is reinstantiated. If the
array is resumed and the disk is still missing, md_check_recovery will
be called upon resume and 'hot_remove_disk' will be called at that
time. However, (for dm-raid) if the device has been restored,
a resume on the array would cause it to attempt to revive the device
by calling 'hot_add_disk'. If 'hot_remove_disk' had not been called,
a situation is then created where the device is thought to concurrently
be the replacement and the device to be replaced. Thus, the device
is first sync'ed with the rest of the array (because it is the replacement
device) and then marked Faulty and removed from the array (because
it is also the device being replaced).
The solution is to check and see if the device had properly been removed
before the array was suspended. This is done by seeing whether the
device's 'raid_disk' field is -1 - a condition that implies that
'md_check_recovery -> remove_and_add_spares (where raid_disk is set to -1)
-> hot_remove_disk' has been called. If 'raid_disk' is not -1, then
'hot_remove_disk' must be called to complete the removal of the previously
faulty device before it can be revived via 'hot_add_disk'.

* tag 'md-3.10-fixes' of git://neil.brown.name/md:
md/raid1,5,10: Disable WRITE SAME until a recovery strategy is in place
md/raid1,raid10: use freeze_array in place of raise_barrier in various places.
md/raid1: consider WRITE as successful only if at least one non-Faulty and non-rebuilding drive completed it.
md: md_stop_writes() should always freeze recovery.
There are cases where the kernel will believe that the WRITE SAME
command is supported by a block device which does not, in fact,
support WRITE SAME. This currently happens for SATA drivers behind a
SAS controller, but there are probably a hundred other ways that can
happen, including drive firmware bugs.
After receiving an error for WRITE SAME the block layer will retry the
request as a plain write of zeroes, but mdraid will consider the
failure as fatal and consider the drive failed. This has the effect
that all the mirrors containing a specific set of data are each
offlined in very rapid succession resulting in data loss.
However, just bouncing the request back up to the block layer isn't
ideal either, because the whole initial request-retry sequence should
be inside the write bitmap fence, which probably means that md needs
to do its own conversion of WRITE SAME to write zero.
Until the failure scenario has been sorted out, disable WRITE SAME for
raid1, raid5, and raid10.
[neilb: added raid5]

Various places in raid1 and raid10 are calling raise_barrier when they
really should call freeze_array.
The former is only intended to be called from "make_request".
The later has extra checks for 'nr_queued' and makes a call to
flush_pending_writes(), so it is safe to call it from within the
management thread.
Using raise_barrier will sometimes deadlock. Using freeze_array
should not.
As 'freeze_array' currently expects one request to be pending (in
handle_read_error - the only previous caller), we need to pass
it the number of pending requests (extra) to ignore.
The deadlock was made particularly noticeable by commits
050b66152f (raid10) and 6b740b8d79 (raid1) which
appeared in 3.4, so the fix is appropriate for any -stable
kernel since then.
This patch probably won't apply directly to some early kernels and
will need to be applied by hand.

Without that fix, the following scenario could happen:
- RAID1 with drives A and B; drive B was freshly-added and is rebuilding
- Drive A fails
- WRITE request arrives to the array. It is failed by drive A, so
r1_bio is marked as R1BIO_WriteError, but the rebuilding drive B
succeeds in writing it, so the same r1_bio is marked as
R1BIO_Uptodate.
- r1_bio arrives to handle_write_finished, badblocks are disabled,
md_error()->error() does nothing because we don't fail the last drive
of raid1
- raid_end_bio_io() calls call_bio_endio()
- As a result, in call_bio_endio():
if (!test_bit(R1BIO_Uptodate, &r1_bio->state))
clear_bit(BIO_UPTODATE, &bio->bi_flags);
this code doesn't clear the BIO_UPTODATE flag, and the whole master
WRITE succeeds, back to the upper layer.
So we returned success to the upper layer, even though we had written
the data onto the rebuilding drive only. But when we want to read the
data back, we would not read from the rebuilding drive, so this data
is lost.
[neilb - applied identical change to raid10 as well]
This bug can result in lost data, so it is suitable for any
-stable kernel.

__md_stop_writes() will currently sometimes freeze recovery.
So any caller must be ready for that to happen, and indeed they are.
However if __md_stop_writes() doesn't freeze_recovery, then
a recovery could start before mddev_suspend() is called, which
could be awkward. This can particularly cause problems or dm-raid.
So change __md_stop_writes() to always freeze recovery. This is safe
and more predicatable.

This patch uses memalloc_noio_save to avoid a possible deadlock in
dm-bufio. (it could happen only with large block size, at most
PAGE_SIZE << MAX_ORDER (typically 8MiB).
__vmalloc doesn't fully respect gfp flags. The specified gfp flags are
used for allocation of requested pages, structures vmap_area, vmap_block
and vm_struct and the radix tree nodes.
However, the kernel pagetables are allocated always with GFP_KERNEL.
Thus the allocation of pagetables can recurse back to the I/O layer and
cause a deadlock.
This patch uses the function memalloc_noio_save to set per-process
PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag and the function memalloc_noio_restore to restore
it. When this flag is set, all allocations in the process are done with
implied GFP_NOIO flag, thus the deadlock can't happen.
This should be backported to stable kernels, but they don't have the
PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag and memalloc_noio_save/memalloc_noio_restore
functions. So, PF_MEMALLOC should be set and restored instead.

Fix a regression in the calculation of the stripe_width in the
dm stripe target which led to incorrect processing of device limits.
The stripe_width is the stripe device length divided by the number of
stripes. The group of commits in the range f14fa69 ("dm stripe: fix
size test") to eb850de ("dm stripe: support for non power of 2
chunksize") interfered with each other (a merging error) and led to the
stripe_width being set incorrectly to the stripe device length divided by
chunk_size * stripe_count.
For example, a stripe device's table with: 0 33553920 striped 3 512 ...
should result in a stripe_width of 11184640 (33553920 / 3), but due to
the bug it was getting set to 21845 (33553920 / (512 * 3)).
The impact of this bug is that device topologies that previously worked
fine with the stripe target are no longer considered valid. In
particular, there is a higher risk of seeing this issue if one of the
stripe devices has a 4K logical block size. Resulting in an error
message like this:
"device-mapper: table: 253:4: len=21845 not aligned to h/w logical block size 4096 of dm-1"
The fix is to swap the order of the divisions and to use a temporary
variable for the second one, so that width retains the intended
value.

Maintenance of a bad-block-list currently defaults to 'enabled'
and is then disabled when it cannot be supported.
This is backwards and causes problem for dm-raid which didn't know
to disable it.
So fix the defaults, and only enabled for v1.x metadata which
explicitly has bad blocks enabled.
The problem with dm-raid has been present since badblock support was
added in v3.1, so this patch is suitable for any -stable from 3.1
onwards.

DM RAID: Add message/status support for changing sync action
This patch adds a message interface to dm-raid to allow the user to more
finely control the sync actions being performed by the MD driver. This
gives the user the ability to initiate "check" and "repair" (i.e. scrubbing).
Two additional fields have been appended to the status output to provide more
information about the type of sync action occurring and the results of those
actions, specifically: <sync_action> and <mismatch_cnt>. These new fields
will always be populated. This is essentially the device-mapper way of doing
what MD controls through the 'sync_action' sysfs file and shows through the
'mismatch_cnt' sysfs file.

read-only arrays should stay that way as much as possible.
Updating the metadata - which could be triggered by a re-add
while assembling the array metadata - should be avoided.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
When assembling an array incrementally we might want to make
it device available when "enough" devices are present, but maybe
not "all" devices are present.
If the remaining devices appear before the array is actually used,
they should be added transparently.
We do this by using the "read-auto" mode where the array acts like
it is read-only until a write request arrives.
Current an add-device request switches a read-auto array to active.
This means that only one device can be added after the array is first
made read-auto. This isn't a problem for RAID5, but is not ideal for
RAID6 or RAID10.
Also we don't really want to switch the array to read-auto at all
when re-adding a device as this doesn't really imply any change.
So:
- remove the "md_update_sb()" call from add_new_disk(). This isn't
really needed as just adding a disk doesn't require a metadata
update. Instead, just set MD_CHANGE_DEVS. This will effect a
metadata update soon enough, once the array is not read-only.
- Allow the ADD_NEW_DISK ioctl to succeed without activating a
read-auto array, providing the MD_DISK_SYNC flag is set.
In this case, the device will be rejected if it cannot be added
with the correct device number, or has an incorrect event count.
- Teach remove_and_add_spares() to be careful about adding spares
when the array is read-only (or read-mostly) - only add devices
that are thought to be in-sync, and only do it if the array is
in-sync itself.
- In md_check_recovery, use remove_and_add_spares in the read-only
case, rather than open coding just the 'remove' part of it.

When an array is assembled incrementally with mdadm -I -R
and the array switches to "active" mode, md starts a recovery.
If the array was clean, the "fullsync" flag will be 0. Skip
the full recovery in this case, as RAID1 does (the code was
actually copied from the sync_request() method of RAID1).

If we write to a known-bad-block it will be flags as having
a ReadError by analyse_stripe, but the write will proceed anyway
(as it should). Then the read-error handling will kick in an
write again, then re-read.
We don't need that 'write-again', so set R5_ReWrite so it looks like
it has already been done. Then we will just get the re-read, which we
want.

If a fail device or a spare is removed from an array, there is
not need to make the array 'active'. If/when the array does become
active for some other reason the metadata will be update to reflect
the removal.
If that never happens and the array is stopped while still read-auto,
then there is no loss in forgetting the that the device had 'failed'.
A read-only array will leave failed devices attached to
the array personality, so we need to explicitly call
remove_and_add_spares() to free it (clearing Blocked just
like we do in store_slot()).
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
slot_store and remove_and_add_spares both call ->hot_remove_disk(),
but with slightly different tests and consequences, which is
at least untidy and might be buggy.
So modify remove_and_add_spaces() so that it can be asked
to remove a specific device, and call it from slot_store().
We also clear the Blocked flag to ensure that doesn't prevent
removal. The purpose of Blocked is to prevent automatic removal
by the kernel before an error is acknowledged.
If the array is read/write then user-space would have not reason
to remove a device unless it was known to be 'spare' or 'faulty' in
which it would have already cleared the Blocked flag.
If the array is read-only, the flag might still be blocked, but
there is no harm in clearing the flag for read-only arrays.
Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
Normally we don't even try to update the metadata if
the array is read-only. However future patches
will increase the number of things that can happen on a read-only
array, so it is safest to explicitly disable this.
Every time that mddev->ro is set to 0, either
- md_update_sb will be called again (at least if MD_CHANGE_DEVS
is set) or
- the mddev->thread is scheduled, which will also run
md_update_sb if needed.
So this is safe: if the array ever become read-write the
metadata will be updated.

A recent patch to fix the dm cache target's writethrough mode extended
the bio's front_pad to include a 1056-byte struct dm_bio_details.
Writeback mode doesn't need this, so this patch reduces the
per_bio_data_size to 16 bytes in this case instead of 1096.
The dm_bio_details structure was added in "dm cache: fix writes to
cache device in writethrough mode" which fixed commit e2e74d617e ("dm
cache: fix race in writethrough implementation"). In writeback mode
we avoid allocating the writethrough-specific members of the
per_bio_data structure (the dm_bio_details structure included).

The dm-cache writethrough strategy introduced by commit e2e74d617e
("dm cache: fix race in writethrough implementation") issues a bio to
the origin device, remaps and then issues the bio to the cache device.
This more conservative in-series approach was selected to favor
correctness over performance (of the previous parallel writethrough).
However, this in-series implementation that reuses the same bio to write
both the origin and cache device didn't take into account that the block
layer's req_bio_endio() modifies a completing bio's bi_sector and
bi_size. So the new writethrough strategy needs to preserve these bio
fields, and restore them before submission to the cache device,
otherwise nothing gets written to the cache (because bi_size is 0).
This patch adds a struct dm_bio_details field to struct per_bio_data,
and uses dm_bio_record() and dm_bio_restore() to ensure the bio is
restored before reissuing to the cache device. Adding such a large
structure to the per_bio_data is not ideal but we can improve this
later, for now correctness is the important thing.
This problem initially went unnoticed because the dm-cache test-suite
uses a linear DM device for the dm-cache device's origin device.
Writethrough worked as expected because DM submits a *clone* of the
original bio, so the original bio which was reused for the cache was
never touched.

This is the pull request for the earlier patchset[1] with the same
name. It's only three patches (the first one was committed to
workqueue tree) but the merge strategy is a bit involved due to the
dependencies.
* Because the conversion needs features from wq/for-3.10,
block/for-3.10/core is based on rc3, and wq/for-3.10 has conflicts
with rc3, I pulled mainline (rc5) into wq/for-3.10 to prevent those
workqueue conflicts from flaring up in block tree.
* Resolving the issue that Jan and Dave raised about debugging
requires arch-wide changes. The patchset is being worked on[2] but
it'll have to go through -mm after these changes show up in -next,
and not included in this pull request.
The three commits are located in the following git branch.
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git writeback-workqueue
Pulling it into block/for-3.10/core produces a conflict in
drivers/md/raid5.c between the following two commits.
e3620a3ad5 ("MD RAID5: Avoid accessing gendisk or queue structs when not available")
2f6db2a707 ("raid5: use bio_reset()")
The conflict is trivial - one removes an "if ()" conditional while the
other removes "rbi->bi_next = NULL" right above it. We just need to
remove both. The merged branch is available at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git block-test-merge
so that you can use it for verification. The test merge commit has
proper merge description.
While these changes are a bit of pain to route, they make code simpler
and even have, while minute, measureable performance gain[3] even on a
workload which isn't particularly favorable to showing the benefits of
this conversion.

More prep work for immutable bvecs:
A few places in the code were either open coding or using the wrong
version - fix.
After we introduce the bvec iter, it'll no longer be possible to modify
the biovec through bio_for_each_segment_all() - it doesn't increment a
pointer to the current bvec, you pass in a struct bio_vec (not a
pointer) which is updated with what the current biovec would be (taking
into account bi_bvec_done and bi_size).
So because of that it's more worthwhile to be consistent about
bio_for_each_segment()/bio_for_each_segment_all() usage.

__bio_for_each_segment() iterates bvecs from the specified index
instead of bio->bv_idx. Currently, the only usage is to walk all the
bvecs after the bio has been advanced by specifying 0 index.
For immutable bvecs, we need to split these apart;
bio_for_each_segment() is going to have a different implementation.
This will also help document the intent of code that's using it -
bio_for_each_segment_all() is only legal to use for code that owns the
bio.
