Introduce a bvec merge function for device mapper devices
for dynamic size restrictions.
This code ensures the requested biovec lies within a single
target and then calls a target-specific function to check
against any constraints imposed by underlying devices.

Make size of dm_ioctl struct always 312 bytes on all supported
architectures.
This change retains compatibility with already-compiled code because
it uses an embedded offset to locate the payload that follows the
structure.
On 64-bit architectures there is no change at all; on 32-bit
we are increasing the size of dm-ioctl from 308 to 312 bytes.
Currently with 32-bit userspace / 64-bit kernel on x86_64
some ioctls (including rename, message) are incorrectly rejected
by the comparison against 'param + 1'. This breaks userspace
lvrename and multipath 'fail_if_no_path' changes, for example.
(BTW Device-mapper uses its own versioning and ignores the ioctl
size bits. Only the generic ioctl compat code on mixed arches
checks them, and that will continue to accept both sizes for now,
but we intend to list 308 as deprecated and eventually remove it.)

Provide a dm ioctl option to request noflush suspending. (See next patch for
what this is for.) As the interface is extended, the version number is
incremented.
Other than accepting the new option through the interface, There is no change
to existing behaviour.
Test results:
Confirmed the option is given from user-space correctly.

This patch adds a target preresume hook.
It is called before the targets are resumed and if it returns an error the
resume gets cancelled.
The crypt target will use this to indicate that it is unable to process I/O
because no encryption key has been supplied.

Extend the core device-mapper infrastructure to accept arbitrary ioctls on a
mapped device provided that it has exactly one target and it is capable of
supporting ioctls.
[We can't use unlocked_ioctl because we need 'inode': 'file' might be NULL.
Is it worth changing this?]

If you misuse the device-mapper interface (or there's a bug in your userspace
tools) it's possible to end up with 'unlinked' mapped devices that cannot be
removed until you reboot (along with uninterruptible processes).
This patch prevents you from removing a device that is still open.
It introduces dm_lock_for_deletion() which is called when a device is about to
be removed to ensure that nothing has it open and nothing further can open it.
It uses a private open_count for this which also lets us remove one of the
problematic bdget_disk() calls elsewhere.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
