blk-mq: decouble blk-mq freezing from generic bypassing
blk_mq freezing is entangled with generic bypassing which bypasses
blkcg and io scheduler and lets IO requests fall through the block
layer to the drivers in FIFO order. This allows forward progress on
IOs with the advanced features disabled so that those features can be
configured or altered without worrying about stalling IO which may
lead to deadlock through memory allocation.
However, generic bypassing doesn't quite fit blk-mq. blk-mq currently
doesn't make use of blkcg or ioscheds and it maps bypssing to
freezing, which blocks request processing and drains all the in-flight
ones. This causes problems as bypassing assumes that request
processing is online. blk-mq works around this by conditionally
allowing request processing for the problem case - during queue
initialization.
Another weirdity is that except for during queue cleanup, bypassing
started on the generic side prevents blk-mq from processing new
requests but doesn't drain the in-flight ones. This shouldn't break
anything but again highlights that something isn't quite right here.
The root cause is conflating blk-mq freezing and generic bypassing
which are two different mechanisms. The only intersecting purpose
that they serve is during queue cleanup. Let's properly separate
blk-mq freezing from generic bypassing and simply use it where
necessary.
* request_queue->mq_freeze_depth is added and
blk_mq_[un]freeze_queue() now operate on this counter instead of
->bypass_depth. The replacement for QUEUE_FLAG_BYPASS isn't added
but the counter is tested directly. This will be further updated by
later changes.
* blk_mq_drain_queue() is dropped and "__" prefix is dropped from
blk_mq_freeze_queue(). Queue cleanup path now calls
blk_mq_freeze_queue() directly.
* blk_queue_enter()'s fast path condition is simplified to simply
check @q->mq_freeze_depth. Previously, the condition was
!blk_queue_dying(q) &&
(!blk_queue_bypass(q) || !blk_queue_init_done(q))
mq_freeze_depth is incremented right after dying is set and
blk_queue_init_done() exception isn't necessary as blk-mq doesn't
start frozen, which only leaves the blk_queue_bypass() test which
can be replaced by @q->mq_freeze_depth test.
This change simplifies the code and reduces confusion in the area.
