This patch converts dm-multipath target to request-based from bio-based.
Basically, the patch just converts the I/O unit from struct bio
to struct request.
In the course of the conversion, it also changes the I/O queueing
mechanism. The change in the I/O queueing is described in details
as follows.
I/O queueing mechanism change
-----------------------------
In I/O submission, map_io(), there is no mechanism change from
bio-based, since the clone request is ready for retry as it is.
However, in I/O complition, do_end_io(), there is a mechanism change
from bio-based, since the clone request is not ready for retry.
In do_end_io() of bio-based, the clone bio has all needed memory
for resubmission. So the target driver can queue it and resubmit
it later without memory allocations.
The mechanism has almost no overhead.
On the other hand, in do_end_io() of request-based, the clone request
doesn't have clone bios, so the target driver can't resubmit it
as it is. To resubmit the clone request, memory allocation for
clone bios is needed, and it takes some overheads.
To avoid the overheads just for queueing, the target driver doesn't
queue the clone request inside itself.
Instead, the target driver asks dm core for queueing and remapping
the original request of the clone request, since the overhead for
queueing is just a freeing memory for the clone request.
As a result, the target driver doesn't need to record/restore
the information of the original request for resubmitting
the clone request. So dm_bio_details in dm_mpath_io is removed.
multipath_busy()
---------------------
The target driver returns "busy", only when the following case:
o The target driver will map I/Os, if map() function is called
and
o The mapped I/Os will wait on underlying device's queue due to
their congestions, if map() function is called now.
In other cases, the target driver doesn't return "busy".
Otherwise, dm core will keep the I/Os and the target driver can't
do what it wants.
(e.g. the target driver can't map I/Os now, so wants to kill I/Os.)
