When a queue is shared across disk rebind (e.g., SCSI unbind/bind), the
previous disk's blkcg state is cleaned up asynchronously via
disk_release() -> blkcg_exit_disk(). If the new disk's blkcg_init_disk()
runs before that cleanup finishes, we may overwrite q->root_blkg while
the old one is still alive, and radix_tree_insert() in blkg_create()
fails with -EEXIST because the old blkg entries still occupy the same
queue id slot in blkcg->blkg_tree. This causes the sd probe to fail
with -ENOMEM.

Fix it by waiting in blkcg_init_disk() for root_blkg to become NULL,
which indicates the previous disk's blkcg cleanup has completed.

When a bio goes through the rq_qos infrastructure on a path's request
queue, it gets BIO_QOS_THROTTLED or BIO_QOS_MERGED flags set. These
flags indicate that rq_qos_done_bio() should be called on completion
to update rq_qos accounting.

During path failover in nvme_failover_req(), the bio's bi_bdev is
redirected from the failed path's disk to the multipath head's disk
via bio_set_dev(). However, the BIO_QOS flags are not cleared.

When the bio eventually completes (either successfully via a new path
or with an error via bio_io_error()), rq_qos_done_bio() checks for
these flags and calls __rq_qos_done_bio(q->rq_qos, bio) where q is
obtained from the bio's current bi_bdev - which is now the multipath
head's queue, not the original path's queue.

The multipath head's queue does not have rq_qos enabled (q->rq_qos is
NULL), but the code assumes that if BIO_QOS_* flags are set, q->rq_qos
must be valid.

This breaks when a bio is moved between queues during NVMe multipath
failover, leading to a NULL pointer dereference.

blk_steal_bios() transfers bios from a request to a bio_list when the
request is requeued to a different queue. The NVMe multipath failover
path (nvme_failover_req) currently open-codes clearing of REQ_POLLED,
bi_cookie, and REQ_NOWAIT on each bio before calling blk_steal_bios().

Move these fixups into blk_steal_bios() itself so that any caller
automatically gets correct flag state when bios cross queue boundaries.
Simplify nvme_failover_req() accordingly.

For blk-mq rotational zoned block devices (e.g. SMR HDDs), default to
having zone write plugging limit write operations to a maximum queue
depth of 1 for all zones. This significantly reduce write seek overhead
and improves SMR HDD write throughput.

For remotely connected disks with a very high network latency this
features might not be useful. However, remotely connected zoned devices
are rare at the moment, and we cannot know the round trip latency to
pick a good default for network attached devices. System administrators
can however disable this feature in that case.

For BIO based (non blk-mq) rotational zoned block devices, the device
driver (e.g. a DM target driver) can directly set an appropriate
default.

In order to maintain sequential write patterns per zone with zoned block
devices, zone write plugging issues only a single write BIO per zone at
any time. This works well but has the side effect that when large
sequential write streams are issued by the user and these streams cross
zone boundaries, the device ends up receiving a discontiguous set of
write commands for different zones. The same also happens when a user
writes simultaneously at high queue depth multiple zones: the device
does not see all sequential writes per zone and receives discontiguous
writes to different zones. While this does not affect the performance of
solid state zoned block devices, when using an SMR HDD, this pattern
change from sequential writes to discontiguous writes to different zones
significantly increases head seek which results in degraded write
throughput.

In order to reduce this seek overhead for rotational media devices,
introduce a per disk zone write plugs kernel thread to issue all write
BIOs to zones. This single zone write issuing context is enabled for
any zoned block device that has a request queue flagged with the new
QUEUE_ZONED_QD1_WRITES flag.

The flag QUEUE_ZONED_QD1_WRITES is visible as the sysfs queue attribute
zoned_qd1_writes for zoned devices. For regular block devices, this
attribute is not visible. For zoned block devices, a user can override
the default value set to force the global write maximum queue depth of
1 for a zoned block device, or clear this attribute to fallback to the
default behavior of zone write plugging which limits writes to QD=1 per
sequential zone.

Writing to a zoned block device flagged with QUEUE_ZONED_QD1_WRITES is
implemented using a list of zone write plugs that have a non-empty BIO
list. Listed zone write plugs are processed by the disk zone write plugs
worker kthread in FIFO order, and all BIOs of a zone write plug are all
processed before switching to the next listed zone write plug. A newly
submitted BIO for a non-FULL zone write plug that is not yet listed
causes the addition of the zone write plug at the end of the disk list
of zone write plugs.

Since the write BIOs queued in a zone write plug BIO list are
necessarilly sequential, for rotational media, using the single zone
write plugs kthread to issue all BIOs maintains a sequential write
pattern and thus reduces seek overhead and improves write throughput.
This processing essentially result in always writing to HDDs at QD=1,
which is not an issue for HDDs operating with write caching enabled.
Performance with write cache disabled is also not degraded thanks to
the efficient write handling of modern SMR HDDs.

A disk list of zone write plugs is defined using the new struct gendisk
zone_wplugs_list, and accesses to this list is protected using the
zone_wplugs_list_lock spinlock. The per disk kthread
(zone_wplugs_worker) code is implemented by the function
disk_zone_wplugs_worker(). A reference on listed zone write plugs is
always held until all BIOs of the zone write plug are processed by the
worker kthread. BIO issuing at QD=1 is driven using a completion
structure (zone_wplugs_worker_bio_done) and calls to blk_io_wait().

With this change, performance when sequentially writing the zones of a
30 TB SMR SATA HDD connected to an AHCI adapter changes as follows
(1MiB direct I/Os, results in MB/s unit):

+--------------------+
| Write BW (MB/s) |
+------------------+----------+---------+
| Sequential write | Baseline | Patched |
| Queue Depth | 6.19-rc8 | |
+------------------+----------+---------+
| 1 | 244 | 245 |
| 2 | 244 | 245 |
| 4 | 245 | 245 |

| 16 | 222 | 246 |
| 32 | 211 | 245 |
| 64 | 193 | 244 |
| 128 | 112 | 246 |
+------------------+----------+---------+

With the current code (baseline), as the sequential write stream crosses
a zone boundary, higher queue depth creates a gap between the
last IO to the previous zone and the first IOs to the following zones,
causing head seeks and degrading performance. Using the disk zone
write plugs worker thread, this pattern disappears and the maximum
throughput of the drive is maintained, leading to over 100%
improvements in throughput for high queue depth write.

Using 16 fio jobs all writing to randomly chosen zones at QD=32 with 1
MiB direct IOs, write throughput also increases significantly.

+--------------------+
| Write BW (MB/s) |
+------------------+----------+---------+
| Random write | Baseline | Patched |
| Number of zones | 6.19-rc7 | |
+------------------+----------+---------+

| 32 | 58 | 105 |
| 64 | 56 | 101 |
| 128 | 55 | 99 |
+------------------+----------+---------+

Tests using XFS shows that buffered write speed with 8 jobs writing
files increases by 12% to 35% depending on the workload.

+--------------------+
| Write BW (MB/s) |
+------------------+----------+---------+
| Workload | Baseline | Patched |

Performance gains are even more significant when using an HBA that
limits the maximum size of commands to a small value, e.g. HBAs
controlled with the mpi3mr driver limit commands to a maximum of 1 MiB.
In such case, the write throughput gains are over 40%.
