When batching more updates to the activity log into single transactions,
we lost the ability for new requests to force themselves into the active
set: all preparation steps became non-blocking, and if all currently
hot extents keep busy, they could starve out new incoming requests
to cold extents for quite a while.
This can only happen if your IO backend accepts more IO operations per
average DRBD replication round trip time than you have al-extents
configured.
If we have incoming requests to cold extents,
at least do one blocking update per transaction.
In an artificial worst-case workload on SSD with an asynchronous 600 ms
replication link, with al-extents = 7 (the minimum we allow), and
concurrent full resynch, without this patch, some write requests have
been observed to be starved for 40 seconds.
With this patch, application observed a worst case latency of twice the
replication round trip time.

If the receiver needs to serve a discard request on a queue that does
not announce to be discard cabable, it falls back to do synchronous
blkdev_issue_zeroout().
We expect only "reasonably" large (up to one activity log extent?)
discard requests.
We do this to not to not block the receiver for too long in this
fallback code path, and to not set/clear too many bits inside one
spinlock_irq_save() in drbd_set_in_sync/drbd_set_out_of_sync,

We plan to use genl_family->parallel_ops = true in the future,
but need to review all possible interactions first.
For now, only selectively drop genl_lock() in drbd_set_role(),
instead serializing on our own internal resource->conf_update mutex.
We now can be promoted/demoted on many resources in parallel,
which may significantly improve cluster failover times
when fencing is required.

Because all administrative requests via genetlink have been globally
serialized via genl_lock(), we used to have one static struct
drbd_config_context "admin context".
Move this on-stack to the respective callback functions.
This will allow us to selectively drop the genl_lock()
(or use genl_family->parallel_ops) in the future.

Before, application IO could pre-empt resync activity
for up to hardcoded 20 seconds per resync request.
A very busy server could throttle the effective resync bandwidth
down to one request per 20 seconds.
Now, we only let application IO pre-empt resync traffic
while the current resync rate estimate is above c-min-rate.
If you disable the c-min-rate throttle feature (set c-min-rate = 0),
application IO will no longer pre-empt resync traffic at all.

This allows drbd_alert(), drbd_err(), drbd_warn(), and drbd_info() to work for
a resource, device, or connection so that we don't have to introduce three
separate sets of macros for that.
The drbd_printk() macro itself is pretty ugly, but that problem is limited to
one place in the code. Using drbd_printk() on an object type which it doesn't
understand results in an undefined drbd_printk_with_wrong_object_type symbol.

DRBD was using dev_err() and similar all over the code; instead of having to
write dev_err(disk_to_dev(device->vdisk), ...) to convert a drbd_device into a
kernel device, a DEV macro was used which implicitly references the device
variable. This is terrible; introduce separate drbd_err() and similar macros
with an explicit device parameter instead.

In a setup where a device (aka volume) can replicate to multiple peers and one
connection can be shared between multiple devices, we need separate objects to
represent devices on peer nodes and network connections.
As a first step to introduce multiple connections per device, give each
drbd_device object a single drbd_peer_device object which connects it to a
drbd_connection object.

Allow to change the AL layout with an resize operation. For that
the reisze command gets two new fields: al_stripes and al_stripe_size.
In order to make the operation crash save:
1) Lock out all IO and MD-IO
2) Write the super block with MDF_PRIMARY_IND clear
3) write the bitmap to the new location (all zeros, since
we allow only while connected)
4) Initialize the new AL-area
5) Write the super block with the restored MDF_PRIMARY_IND.
6) Unfreeze all IO
Since the AL-layout has no influence on the protocol, this operation
needs to be beforemed on both sides of a resource (if intended).
