Linux supports some optional features, but it should notify the BIOS about
them via the _OSI method. Currently Linux doesn't notify any, which might
make such features not work because the BIOS doesn't know about them.
Jarosz has a system which needs this to make ACPI processor aggregator
device work.

THERMAL_HWMON is implemented inside the thermal_sys driver and has no
effect on drivers implementing thermal zones, so they shouldn't see
anything related to it in <linux/thermal.h>. Making the THERMAL_HWMON
implementation fully internal has two advantages beyond the cleaner
design:
* This avoids rebuilding all thermal drivers if the THERMAL_HWMON
implementation changes, or if CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON gets enabled or
disabled.
* This avoids breaking the thermal kABI in these cases too, which should
make distributions happy.
The only drawback I can see is slightly higher memory fragmentation, as
the number of kzalloc() calls will increase by one per thermal zone. But
I doubt it will be a problem in practice, as I've never seen a system with
more than two thermal zones.

It's about time to revert 16d752397301b9 ("thermal: Create
CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=n"). Anybody running a kernel >= 2.6.40 would also
be running a recent enough version of lm-sensors.
Actually having CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON is pretty convenient so instead of
dropping it, we keep it but hide it.

DM has always advertised both REQ_FLUSH and REQ_FUA flush capabilities
regardless of whether or not a given DM device's underlying devices
also advertised a need for them.
Block's flush-merge changes from 2.6.39 have proven to be more costly
for DM devices. Performance regressions have been reported even when
DM's underlying devices do not advertise that they have a write cache.
Fix the performance regressions by configuring a DM device's flushing
capabilities based on those of the underlying devices' capabilities.

Add optional parameter field to dmcrypt table and support
"allow_discards" option.
Discard requests bypass crypt queue processing. Bio is simple remapped
to underlying device.
Note that discard will be never enabled by default because of security
consequences. It is up to the administrator to enable it for encrypted
devices.
(Note that userspace cryptsetup does not understand new optional
parameters yet. Support for this will come later. Until then, you
should use 'dmsetup' to enable and disable this.)

Add the ability to parse and use metadata devices to dm-raid. Although
not strictly required, without the metadata devices, many features of
RAID are unavailable. They are used to store a superblock and bitmap.
The role, or position in the array, of each device must be recorded in
its superblock. This is to help with fault handling, array reshaping,
and sanity checks. RAID 4/5/6 devices must be loaded in a specific order:
in this way, the 'array_position' field helps validate the correctness
of the mapping when it is loaded. It can be used during reshaping to
identify which devices are added/removed. Fault handling is impossible
without this field. For example, when a device fails it is recorded in
the superblock. If this is a RAID1 device and the offending device is
removed from the array, there must be a way during subsequent array
assembly to determine that the failed device was the one removed. This
is done by correlating the 'array_position' field and the bit-field
variable 'failed_devices'.

If we write a full chunk in the snapshot, skip reading the origin device
because the whole chunk will be overwritten anyway.
This patch changes the snapshot write logic when a full chunk is written.
In this case:
1. allocate the exception
2. dispatch the bio (but don't report the bio completion to device mapper)
3. write the exception record
4. report bio completed
Callbacks must be done through the kcopyd thread, because callbacks must not
race with each other. So we create two new functions:
dm_kcopyd_prepare_callback: allocate a job structure and prepare the callback.
(This function must not be called from interrupt context.)
dm_kcopyd_do_callback: submit callback.
(This function may be called from interrupt context.)
Performance test (on snapshots with 4k chunk size):
without the patch:
non-direct-io sequential write (dd): 17.7MB/s
direct-io sequential write (dd): 20.9MB/s
non-direct-io random write (mkfs.ext2): 0.44s
with the patch:
non-direct-io sequential write (dd): 26.5MB/s
direct-io sequential write (dd): 33.2MB/s
non-direct-io random write (mkfs.ext2): 0.27s

Add a new flag DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL to struct mapped_device to indicate
whether the device can accept bios larger than the size its merge
function returns. When set, use this to send large bios to snapshots
which can split them if necessary. Snapshot I/O may be significantly
fragmented and this approach seems to improve peformance.
Before the patch, dm_set_device_limits restricted bio size to page size
if the underlying device had a merge function and the target didn't
provide a merge function. After the patch, dm_set_device_limits
restricts bio size to page size if the underlying device has a merge
function, doesn't have DMF_MERGE_IS_OPTIONAL flag and the target doesn't
provide a merge function.
The snapshot target can't provide a merge function because when the merge
function is called, it is impossible to determine where the bio will be
remapped. Previously this led us to impose a 4k limit, which we can
now remove if the snapshot store is located on a device without a merge
function. Together with another patch for optimizing full chunk writes,
it improves performance from 29MB/s to 40MB/s when writing to the
filesystem on snapshot store.
If the snapshot store is placed on a non-dm device with a merge function
(such as md-raid), device mapper still limits all bios to page size.

Remove 'discards_supported' from the dm_table structure. The same
information can be easily discovered from the table's target(s) in
dm_table_supports_discards().
Before this fix dm_table_supports_discards() would skip checking the
individual targets' 'discards_supported' flag if any one target in the
table didn't set num_discard_requests > 0. Now the per-target
'discards_supported' flag is effective at insuring the final DM device
advertises discard support. But, to be clear, targets that don't
support discards (!num_discard_requests) will not receive discard
requests.
Also DMWARN if a target sets 'discards_supported' override but forgets
to set 'num_discard_requests'.

For normal kernel pages, CPU cache is synchronized by the dma layer.
However, this is not done for pages allocated with vmalloc. If we do I/O
to/from vmallocated pages, we must synchronize CPU cache explicitly.
Prior to doing I/O on vmallocated page we must call
flush_kernel_vmap_range to flush dirty cache on the virtual address.
After finished read we must call invalidate_kernel_vmap_range to
invalidate cache on the virtual address, so that accesses to the virtual
address return newly read data and not stale data from CPU cache.
This patch fixes metadata corruption on dm-snapshots on PA-RISC and
possibly other architectures with caches indexed by virtual address.
