280481d06c bcache: Debug code improvements
Couple changes:
 * Consolidate bch_check_keys() and bch_check_key_order(), and move the
   checks that only check_key_order() could do to bch_btree_iter_next().

 * Get rid of CONFIG_BCACHE_EDEBUG - now, all that code is compiled in
   when CONFIG_BCACHE_DEBUG is enabled, and there's now a sysfs file to
   flip on the EDEBUG checks at runtime.

 * Dropped an old not terribly useful check in rw_unlock(), and
   refactored/improved a some of the other debug code.

81ab4190ac bcache: Pull on disk data structures out into a separate header
Now, the on disk data structures are in a header that can be exported to
userspace - and having them all centralized is nice too.

c2a4f3183a bcache: Fix a writeback performance regression
Background writeback works by scanning the btree for dirty data and
adding those keys into a fixed size buffer, then for each dirty key in
the keybuf writing it to the backing device.

When read_dirty() finishes and it's time to scan for more dirty data, we
need to wait for the outstanding writeback IO to finish - they still
take up slots in the keybuf (so that foreground writes can check for
them to avoid races) - without that wait, we'll continually rescan when
we'll be able to add at most a key or two to the keybuf, and that takes
locks that starves foreground IO.  Doh.

8e51e414a3 bcache: Use standard utility code
Some of bcache's utility code has made it into the rest of the kernel,
so drop the bcache versions.

Bcache used to have a workaround for allocating from a bio set under
generic_make_request() (if you allocated more than once, the bios you
already allocated would get stuck on current->bio_list when you
submitted, and you'd risk deadlock) - bcache would mask out __GFP_WAIT
when allocating bios under generic_make_request() so that allocation
could fail and it could retry from workqueue. But bio_alloc_bioset() has
a workaround now, so we can drop this hack and the associated error
handling.

c37511b863 bcache: Fix/revamp tracepoints
The tracepoints were reworked to be more sensible, and fixed a null
pointer deref in one of the tracepoints.

Converted some of the pr_debug()s to tracepoints - this is partly a
performance optimization; it used to be that with DEBUG or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG pr_debug() was an empty macro; but at some point it
was changed to an empty inline function.

Some of the pr_debug() statements had rather expensive function calls as
part of the arguments, so this code was getting run unnecessarily even
on non debug kernels - in some fast paths, too.

cafe563591 bcache: A block layer cache
Does writethrough and writeback caching, handles unclean shutdown, and
has a bunch of other nifty features motivated by real world usage.

See the wiki at http://bcache.evilpiepirate.org for more.
