As described in commit 8111964f1b85 ("dm thin: Fix ABBA deadlock between
shrink_slab and dm_pool_abort_metadata"), ABBA deadlocks will be
triggered because shrinker_rwsem currently needs to held by
dm_pool_abort_metadata() as a side-effect of thin-pool metadata
operation failure.
The following three problem scenarios have been noticed:
1) Described by commit 8111964f1b85 ("dm thin: Fix ABBA deadlock between
shrink_slab and dm_pool_abort_metadata")
2) shrinker_rwsem and throttle->lock

Fix these by resetting dm_bufio_client without holding shrinker_rwsem.

'GPL-2.0-only' is used instead of 'GPL-2.0' because SPDX has

Add an optional flag that ensures dm_bufio_client does not sleep
(primary focus is to service dm_bufio_get without sleeping). This
allows the dm-bufio cache to be queried from interrupt context.
To ensure that dm-bufio does not sleep, dm-bufio must use a spinlock
instead of a mutex. Additionally, to avoid deadlocks, special care
must be taken so that dm-bufio does not sleep while holding the
spinlock.
But again: the scope of this no_sleep is initially confined to
dm_bufio_get, so __alloc_buffer_wait_no_callback is _not_ changed to
avoid sleeping because __bufio_new avoids allocation for NF_GET.

Add a flags argument to dm_bufio_client_create and update all the

With external metadata device, flush requests are not passed down to the
data device.
Fix this by submitting the flush request in dm_integrity_flush_buffers. In
order to not degrade performance, we overlap the data device flush with
the metadata device flush.

Introduce a function forget_buffer_locked that forgets a range of
buffers. It is more efficient than calling forget_buffer in a loop.

There is no user for this interface. If in future it is needed it can
be reimplemented to walk the rbtree of buffers instead of doing
block-by-block lookups.

Add functions dm_bufio_issue_discard and dm_bufio_discard_buffers.
dm_bufio_issue_discard sends discard request to the underlying device.
dm_bufio_discard_buffers frees buffers in the range and then calls
dm_bufio_issue_discard.
Also, factor out block_to_sector for reuse in dm_bufio_issue_discard.

Move dm-bufio.h to include/linux/ so that external GPL'd DM target
modules can use it.
It is better to allow the use of dm-bufio than force external modules
to implement the equivalent buffered IO mechanism in some new way. The
hope is this will encourage the use of dm-bufio; which will then make it
easier for a GPL'd external DM target module to be included upstream.
A couple dm-bufio EXPORT_SYMBOL exports have also been updated to use
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.
