blkdev_issue_discard() will zero a given block range. This is done by
way of explicit writing, thus provisioning or allocating the blocks on
disk.
There are use cases where the desired behavior is to zero the blocks but
unprovision them if possible. The blocks must deterministically contain
zeroes when they are subsequently read back.
This patch adds a flag to blkdev_issue_zeroout() that provides this
variant. If the discard flag is set and a block device guarantees
discard_zeroes_data we will use REQ_DISCARD to clear the block range. If
the device does not support discard_zeroes_data or if the discard
request fails we will fall back to first REQ_WRITE_SAME and then a
regular REQ_WRITE.
Also update the callers of blkdev_issue_zero() to reflect the new flag
and make sb_issue_zeroout() prefer the discard approach.

Under the following conditions:
A resource with multiple volumes
AND

AND
a write request triggers the timeout (ko-count * timeout)

If for some reason DRBD resync was the only activity on a backend
device, drbd_rs_c_min_rate_throttle() would mistakenly decide that it is
still initialization time, and keep throttling the resync.
This patch explicitly initializes ->rs_last_events to the current
backend event counters, and drops the rs_last_events == 0 from the
throttle condition.

Symptoms:
If DRBD was "cleanly shut down" (all in sync, both Secondary before
disconnect, identical data generation uuids), and then one side was
promoted *during* the next connection handshake, the role change
could confuse the handshake.
The Primary would get stuck in WFBitmapS, the Secondary would log
unexpected cstate (Connected) in receive_bitmap
and get stuck in WFBitmapT.
Fix:
The test in is_valid_soft_transition wrong. It works because
the not allowed actions (promote/attach) do not touch the
cstate. The previous condition failed to demand a cstate change
in one clause.
In order to avoid deadlocks give up the state_mutex while waiting
for the transient state to go away.

Commit 98683650 "Merge branch 'drbd-8.4_ed6' into
for-3.8-drivers-drbd-8.4_ed6" switches to the new augment API, but the
new API requires that the tree is augmented before rb_insert_augmented()
is called, which is missing.
So we add the augment-code to drbd_insert_interval() when it travels the
tree up to down before rb_insert_augmented(). See the example in
include/linux/interval_tree_generic.h or Documentation/rbtree.txt.
drbd_insert_interval() may cancel the insertion when traveling, in this
case, the just added augment-code does nothing before cancel since the
@this node is already in the subtrees in this case.

During resync, if we need to block some specific incoming write because
of active resync requests to that same range, we potentially caused
*all* new application writes (to "cold" activity log extents) to block
until this one request has been processed.
Improve the do_submit() logic to
* grab all incoming requests to some "incoming" list
* process this list
- move aside requests that are blocked by resync
- prepare activity log transactions,
- commit transactions and submit corresponding requests
- if there are remaining requests that only wait for
activity log extents to become free, stop the fast path
(mark activity log as "starving")
- iterate until no more requests are waiting for the activity log,
but all potentially remaining requests are only blocked by resync
* only then grab new incoming requests
That way, very busy IO on currently "hot" activity log extents cannot
starve scattered IO to "cold" extents. And blocked-by-resync requests
are processed once resync traffic on the affected region has ceased,
without blocking anything else.
The only blocking mode left is when we cannot start requests to "cold"
extents because all currently "hot" extents are actually used.

* Add details about pending meta data operations to in_flight_summary.
* Report number of requests waiting for activity log transactions.
* timing details of peer_requests to in_flight_summary.
* FLUSH details
DRBD devides the incoming request stream into "epochs",
in which peers are allowed to re-order writes independendly.
These epochs are separated by P_BARRIER on the replication link.
Such barrier packets, depending on configuration, may cause
the receiving side to drain the lower level device request queues
and call blkdev_issue_flush().
This is known to be an other major source of latency in DRBD.
Track timing details of calls to blkdev_issue_flush(),
and add them to in_flight_summary.

Try to close the race between open() and debugfs_remove_recursive()
from inside an object destructor.
Once open succeeds, the object should stay around.
Open should not succeed if the object has already reached its destructor.
This may be overkill, but to make that happen, we check for existence of
a parent directory, "stale-ness" of "this" dentry, and serialize
kref_get_unless_zero() on the outermost object relevant for this file
with d_delete() on this dentry (using the parent's i_mutex).

rate estimate is above the configured "cmin-rate".
What was not detected: if there is no application IO,
because it blocks on activity log transactions.
Introduce a new atomic_t ap_actlog_cnt, tracking such blocked requests,

A request that is to be shipped to the peer goes through a few stages:
- queued
- sent, waiting for ack
- ack received, waiting for "barrier ack", which is re-order epoch being
closed on the peer by acknowledging a "cache flush" equivalent
on the lower level device.
In the later two stages, depending on protocol, we may have already
completed this request to the upper layers, so it won't be found anymore
on device->pending_master_completion[] lists.
Track the oldest request yet to be sent (req_next), the oldest not yet
acknowledged (req_ack_pending) and the oldest "still waiting for
something from the peer" (req_not_net_done), doing short list walks on
the transfer log to find the next pending one whenever such a request
makes progress.
