Pull core block layer changes from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the core block IO pull request for 3.18.  Apart from the new
  and improved flush machinery for blk-mq, this is all mostly bug fixes
  and cleanups.

   - blk-mq timeout updates and fixes from Christoph.

   - Removal of REQ_END, also from Christoph.  We pass it through the
     -&gt;queue_rq() hook for blk-mq instead, freeing up one of the request
     bits.  The space was overly tight on 32-bit, so Martin also killed
     REQ_KERNEL since it's no longer used.

   - blk integrity updates and fixes from Martin and Gu Zheng.

   - Update to the flush machinery for blk-mq from Ming Lei.  Now we
     have a per hardware context flush request, which both cleans up the
     code should scale better for flush intensive workloads on blk-mq.

   - Improve the error printing, from Rob Elliott.

   - Backing device improvements and cleanups from Tejun.

   - Fixup of a misplaced rq_complete() tracepoint from Hannes.

   - Make blk_get_request() return error pointers, fixing up issues
     where we NULL deref when a device goes bad or missing.  From Joe
     Lawrence.

   - Prep work for drastically reducing the memory consumption of dm
     devices from Junichi Nomura.  This allows creating clone bio sets
     without preallocating a lot of memory.

   - Fix a blk-mq hang on certain combinations of queue depths and
     hardware queues from me.

   - Limit memory consumption for blk-mq devices for crash dump
     scenarios and drivers that use crazy high depths (certain SCSI
     shared tag setups).  We now just use a single queue and limited
     depth for that"

* 'for-3.18/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (58 commits)
  block: Remove REQ_KERNEL
  blk-mq: allocate cpumask on the home node

The Linux kernel coding style guidelines suggest not using typedefs
for structure types. This patch gets rid of the typedef for
atiixp_ide_timing.

The following Coccinelle semantic patch detects the case:

@tn1@
type td;

typedef struct { ... } td;

@script:python tf@
td &lt;&lt; tn1.td;
tdres;
@@

coccinelle.tdres = td;

-typedef

   { ... }
-td
 ;

@@
type tn1.td;
identifier tf.tdres;

-td

Clear QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM in all block drivers that set
QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT.

Historically, all block devices have automatically made entropy
contributions.  But as previously stated in commit e2e1a148 ("block: add
sysfs knob for turning off disk entropy contributions"):
    - On SSD disks, the completion times aren't as random as they
      are for rotational drives. So it's questionable whether they
      should contribute to the random pool in the first place.
    - Calling add_disk_randomness() has a lot of overhead.

There are more reliable sources for randomness than non-rotational block
devices.  From a security perspective it is better to err on the side of
caution than to allow entropy contributions from unreliable "random"
sources.

The blk_get_request function may fail in low-memory conditions or during
device removal (even if __GFP_WAIT is set). To distinguish between these
errors, modify the blk_get_request call stack to return the appropriate
ERR_PTR. Verify that all callers check the return status and consider
IS_ERR instead of a simple NULL pointer check.

For consistency, make a similar change to the blk_mq_alloc_request leg
of blk_get_request.  It may fail if the queue is dead, or the caller was
unwilling to wait.

This was used in the olden days, back when onions were proper
yellow. Basically it mapped to the current buffer to be
transferred. With highmem being added more than a decade ago,
most drivers map pages out of a bio, and rq-&gt;buffer isn't
pointing at anything valid.

Convert old style drivers to just use bio_data().

For the discard payload use case, just reference the page
in the bio.

The SC1200 is a SoC based on the Geode GX1 32-bit x86 processor, so
its drivers are only needed on this architecture, except for build
testing purpose.

As far as I know, the CS5520 and CS5530 chipsets were only used with
32-bit x86 Geode processors, so I think their drivers are only needed
on this architecture, except for build testing purpose.

While we're here, simplify the dependencies for the CS5535 driver.
