- Improve DM core's bio splitting to use blk_max_size_offset(). Also
fix bio splitting for bios that were deferred to the worker thread
due to a DM device being suspended.
- Remove DM core's special handling of NVMe devices now that block
core has internalized efficiencies drivers previously needed to
be concerned about (via now removed direct_make_request).
- Fix request-based DM to not bounce through indirect dm_submit_bio;
instead have block core make direct call to blk_mq_submit_bio().
- Various DM core cleanups to simplify and improve code.
- Update DM cryot to not use drivers that set
CRYPTO_ALG_ALLOCATES_MEMORY.
- Fix DM raid's raid1 and raid10 discard limits for the purposes of
linux-stable. But then remove DM raid's discard limits settings now
that MD raid can efficiently handle large discards.
- A couple small cleanups across various targets.
dm: fix request-based DM to not bounce through indirect dm_submit_bio
It is unnecessary to force request-based DM to call into bio-based
dm_submit_bio (via indirect disk->fops->submit_bio) only to have it then
call blk_mq_submit_bio().
Fix this by establishing a request-based DM block_device_operations
(dm_rq_blk_dops, which doesn't have .submit_bio) and update
dm_setup_md_queue() to set md->disk->fops to it for
DM_TYPE_REQUEST_BASED.
Remove DM_TYPE_REQUEST_BASED conditional in dm_submit_bio and unexport
blk_mq_submit_bio.
