<title>drbd: code cleanup by using sendpage_ok() to check page for kernel_sendpage()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fb25ebe1b212c37781b23a7f7cd21c0bb2f6eb83</id>
<content type='text'>
In _drbd_send_page() a page is checked by following code before sending
it by kernel_sendpage(),
        (page_count(page) &lt; 1) || PageSlab(page)
If the check is true, this page won't be send by kernel_sendpage() and
handled by sock_no_sendpage().

This kind of check is exactly what macro sendpage_ok() does, which is
introduced into include/linux/net.h to solve a similar send page issue
in nvme-tcp code.

This patch uses macro sendpage_ok() to replace the open coded checks to
page type and refcount in _drbd_send_page(), as a code cleanup.

Replace the existing /* fall through */ comments and its variants with
the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary
fall-through markings when it is the case.

Pull sched/fifo updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "This adds the sched_set_fifo*() encapsulation APIs to remove static
  priority level knowledge from non-scheduler code.

  The three APIs for non-scheduler code to set SCHED_FIFO are:

   - sched_set_fifo()
   - sched_set_fifo_low()
   - sched_set_normal()

  These are two FIFO priority levels: default (high), and a 'low'
  priority level, plus sched_set_normal() to set the policy back to
  non-SCHED_FIFO.

  Since the changes affect a lot of non-scheduler code, we kept this in
  a separate tree"

Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.

In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining
needless uses with the following script:

git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \
	xargs perl -pi -e \
		's/\buninitialized_var\(([^\)]+)\)/\1/g;
		 s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;'

drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid
pathological white-space.

No outstanding warnings were found building allmodconfig with GCC 9.3.0
for x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, powerpc64le, s390x, mips, sparc64,
alpha, and m68k.

Except for pktdvd, the only places setting congested bits are file
systems that allocate their own backing_dev_info structures.  And
pktdvd is a deprecated driver that isn't useful in stack setup
either.  So remove the dead congested_fn stacking infrastructure.
