Recently found a bug where a driver left bi_next not NULL and then
called bio_endio(), and then the submitter of the bio used
bio_copy_data() which was treating src and dst as lists of bios.
Fixed that bug by splitting out bio_list_copy_data(), but in case other
things are depending on bi_next in weird ways, add a warning to help
avoid more bugs like that in the future.

Found a bug (with ASAN) where we were passing a bio to bio_copy_data()
with bi_next not NULL, when it should have been - a driver had left
bi_next set to something after calling bio_endio().
Since the normal case is only copying single bios, split out
bio_list_copy_data() to avoid more bugs like this in the future.

If we have multiple callers of sbq_wake_up(), we can end up in a
situation where the wait_cnt will continually go more and more
negative. Consider the case where our wake batch is 1, hence
wait_cnt will start out as 1.
wait_cnt == 1
CPU0 CPU1
atomic_dec_return(), cnt == 0
atomic_dec_return(), cnt == -1
cmpxchg(-1, 0) (succeeds)
[wait_cnt now 0]
cmpxchg(0, 1) (fails)
This ends up with wait_cnt being 0, we'll wakeup immediately
next time. Going through the same loop as above again, and
we'll have wait_cnt -1.
For the case where we have a larger wake batch, the only
difference is that the starting point will be higher. We'll
still end up with continually smaller batch wakeups, which
defeats the purpose of the rolling wakeups.
Always reset the wait_cnt to the batch value. Then it doesn't
matter who wins the race. But ensure that whomever does win
the race is the one that increments the ws index and wakes up
our batch count, loser gets to call __sbq_wake_up() again to
account his wakeups towards the next active wait state index.

The sbitmap queue wake batch is calculated such that once allocations
start blocking, all of the bits which are already allocated must be
enough to fulfill the batch counters of all of the waitqueues. However,
the shallow allocation depth can break this invariant, since we block
before our full depth is being utilized. Add
sbitmap_queue_min_shallow_depth(), which saves the minimum shallow depth
the sbq will use, and update sbq_calc_wake_batch() to take it into
account.

When invoked for an I/O request rq, the prepare_request hook of bfq
increments reference counters in the destination bfq_queue for rq. In
this respect, after this hook has been invoked, rq may still be
transformed into a request with no icq attached, i.e., for bfq, a
request not associated with any bfq_queue. No further hook is invoked
to signal this tranformation to bfq (in general, to the destination
elevator for rq). This leads bfq into an inconsistent state, because
bfq has no chance to correctly lower these counters back. This
inconsistency may in its turn cause incorrect scheduling and hangs. It
certainly causes memory leaks, by making it impossible for bfq to free
the involved bfq_queue.
On the bright side, no transformation can still happen for rq after rq
has been inserted into bfq, or merged with another, already inserted,
request. Exploiting this fact, this commit addresses the above issue
by delaying the preparation of an I/O request to when the request is
inserted or merged.
This change also gives a performance bonus: a lock-contention point
gets removed. To prepare a request, bfq needs to hold its scheduler
lock. After postponing request preparation to insertion or merging, no
lock needs to be grabbed any longer in the prepare_request hook, while
the lock already taken to perform insertion or merging is used to
preparare the request as well.

Currently, struct request has four timestamp fields:
- A start time, set at get_request time, in jiffies, used for iostats
- An I/O start time, set at start_request time, in ktime nanoseconds,
used for blk-stats (i.e., wbt, kyber, hybrid polling)
- Another start time and another I/O start time, used for cfq and bfq
These can all be consolidated into one start time and one I/O start
time, both in ktime nanoseconds, shaving off up to 16 bytes from struct
request depending on the kernel config.

Commit 9c40cef2b7 ("sched: Move blk_schedule_flush_plug() out of
__schedule()") moved the blk_schedule_flush_plug() call out of the
interrupt/preempt disabled region in the scheduler. This allows to replace
local_irq_save/restore(flags) by local_irq_disable/enable() in
blk_flush_plug_list().
But it makes more sense to disable interrupts explicitly when the request
queue is locked end reenable them when the request to is unlocked. This
shortens the interrupt disabled section which is important when the plug
list contains requests for more than one queue. The comment which claims
that disabling interrupts around the loop is misleading as the called
functions can reenable interrupts unconditionally anyway and obfuscates the
scope badly:
local_irq_save(flags);
spin_lock(q->queue_lock);
...
queue_unplugged(q...);
scsi_request_fn();
spin_unlock_irq(q->queue_lock);
-------------------^^^ ????
spin_lock_irq(q->queue_lock);
spin_unlock(q->queue_lock);
local_irq_restore(flags);
Aside of that the detached interrupt disabling is a constant pain for
PREEMPT_RT as it requires patching and special casing when RT is enabled
while with the spin_*_irq() variants this happens automatically.

bounce_copy_vec() disables interrupts around kmap_atomic(). This is a
leftover from the old kmap_atomic() implementation which relied on fixed
