The SCSI-to-NVMe translations were added to assist storage applications

This patch removes SG_IO handling from NVMe to avoid any confusion

NVMe SCSI emulation has been disabled by default since 4.5. The driver
has supported native nvme user commands since the beginning, and native

I got a couple more reports: the Samsung APST issues appears to
affect multiple 950-series devices in Dell XPS 15 9550 and Precision
5510 laptops. Change the quirk: rather than blacklisting the
firmware on the first problematic SSD that was reported, disable
APST on all 144d:a802 devices if they're installed in the two
affected Dell models. While we're at it, disable only the deepest
sleep state instead of all of them -- the reporters say that this is
sufficient to fix the problem.
(I have a device that appears to be entirely identical to one of the
affected devices, but I have a different Dell laptop, so it's not
the case that all Samsung devices with firmware BXW75D0Q are broken
under all circumstances.)
Samsung engineers have an affected system, and hopefully they'll
give us a better workaround some time soon. In the mean time, this
should minimize regressions.

If the nvme driver is shutting down its controller, the drievr will not
start the queues up again, preventing blk-mq's hot CPU notifier from
making forward progress.
To fix that, this patch starts a request_queue freeze when the driver
resets a controller so no new requests may enter. The driver will wait
for frozen after IO queues are restarted to ensure the queue reference
can be reinitialized when nvme requests to unfreeze the queues.
If the driver is doing a safe shutdown, the driver will wait for the
controller to successfully complete all inflight requests so that we
don't unnecessarily fail them. Once the controller has been disabled,
the queues will be restarted to force remaining entered requests to end
in failure so that blk-mq's hot cpu notifier may progress.

NVMe devices can advertise multiple power states. These states can
be either "operational" (the device is fully functional but possibly
slow) or "non-operational" (the device is asleep until woken up).
Some devices can automatically enter a non-operational state when
idle for a specified amount of time and then automatically wake back
up when needed.
The hardware configuration is a table. For each state, an entry in
the table indicates the next deeper non-operational state, if any,
to autonomously transition to and the idle time required before
transitioning.
This patch teaches the driver to program APST so that each successive
non-operational state will be entered after an idle time equal to 100%
of the total latency (entry plus exit) associated with that state.
The maximum acceptable latency is controlled using dev_pm_qos
(e.g. power/pm_qos_latency_tolerance_us in sysfs); non-operational
states with total latency greater than this value will not be used.
As a special case, setting the latency tolerance to 0 will disable
APST entirely. On hardware without APST support, the sysfs file will
not be exposed.
The latency tolerance for newly-probed devices is set by the module
parameter nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us.
In theory, the device can expose "default" APST table, but this
doesn't seem to function correctly on my device (Samsung 950), nor
does it seem particularly useful. There is also an optional
mechanism by which a configuration can be "saved" so it will be
automatically loaded on reset. This can be configured from
userspace, but it doesn't seem useful to support in the driver.
On my laptop, enabling APST seems to save nearly 1W.
The hardware tables can be decoded in userspace with nvme-cli.
'nvme id-ctrl /dev/nvmeN' will show the power state table and
'nvme get-feature -f 0x0c -H /dev/nvme0' will show the current APST
configuration.
This feature is quirked off on a known-buggy Samsung device.

Instead of allocating a single unused biovec for discard requests, send
them down without any payload. Instead we allow the driver to add a
"special" payload using a biovec embedded into struct request (unioned
over other fields never used while in the driver), and overloading
the number of segments for this case.
This has a couple of advantages:
- we don't have to allocate the bio_vec
- the amount of special casing for discard requests in the block
layer is significantly reduced
- using this same scheme for other request types is trivial,
which will be important for implementing the new WRITE_ZEROES
op on devices where it actually requires a payload (e.g. SCSI)
- we can get rid of playing games with the request length, as
we'll never touch it and completions will work just fine
- it will allow us to support ranged discard operations in the
future by merging non-contiguous discard bios into a single
request
- last but not least it removes a lot of code

The first use is to replace the current abuse of the SCSI command
passthrough fields in struct request for the NVMe command passthrough,
but it will grow a field more fields to allow implementing things
like common abort handlers in the future.
The passthrough commands are handled by having a pointer to the SQE

possible result fields, which had to be turned from an anonymous
