aio_poll is not thread safe; for example bdrv_drain can hang if
the last in-flight I/O operation is completed in the I/O thread after
the main thread has checked bs->in_flight.
The bug remains latent as long as all of it is called within
aio_context_acquire/aio_context_release, but this will change soon.
To fix this, if bdrv_drain is called from outside the I/O thread,
signal the main AioContext through a dummy bottom half. The event
loop then only runs in the I/O thread.

bdrv_requests_pending is checking children to also wait until internal
requests (such as metadata writes) have completed. However, checking
children is in general overkill. Children requests can be of two kinds:
- requests caused by an operation on bs, e.g. a bdrv_aio_write to bs
causing a write to bs->file->bs. In this case, the parent's in_flight
count will always be incremented by at least one for every request in
the child.
- asynchronous metadata writes or flushes. Such writes can be started
even if bs's in_flight count is zero, but not after the .bdrv_drain
callback has been invoked.
This patch therefore changes bdrv_drain to finish I/O in the parent
(after which the parent's in_flight will be locked to zero), call
bdrv_drain (after which the parent will not generate I/O on the child
anymore), and then wait for internal I/O in the children to complete.

Commit fe1a9cbc moved the flush_all routine from the bdrv layer to the
block-backend layer. In doing so, however, the semantics of the routine
changed slightly such that flush_all now used blk_flush instead of
bdrv_flush.
blk_flush can fail if the attached device model reports that it is not
"available," (i.e. the tray is open.) This changed the semantics of
flush_all such that it can now fail for e.g. open CDROM drives.
Reintroduce bdrv_flush_all to regain the old semantics without having to
alter the behavior of blk_flush or blk_flush_all, which are already
'doing the right thing.'

This patch reduce CPU usage of flush operations a bit. When we have one
flush completed we should kick only next operation. We should not start
all pending operations in the hope that they will go back to wait on
wait_queue.
Also there is a technical possibility that requests will get reordered
with the previous approach. After wakeup all requests are removed from
the wait queue. They become active and they are processed one-by-one
adding to the wait queue in the same order. Though new flush can arrive
while all requests are not put into the queue.

block: ignore flush requests when storage is clean
has introduced a regression.
There is a problem that it is still possible for 2 requests to execute
in non sequential fashion and sometimes this results in a deadlock
when bdrv_drain_one/all are called for BDS with such stalled requests.
1. Current flushed_gen and flush_started_gen is 1.
2. Request 1 enters bdrv_co_flush to with write_gen 1 (i.e. the same
as flushed_gen). It gets past flushed_gen != flush_started_gen and
sets flush_started_gen to 1 (again, the same it was before).
3. Request 1 yields somewhere before exiting bdrv_co_flush
4. Request 2 enters bdrv_co_flush with write_gen 2. It gets past
flushed_gen != flush_started_gen and sets flush_started_gen to 2.
5. Request 2 runs to completion and sets flushed_gen to 2
6. Request 1 is resumed, runs to completion and sets flushed_gen to 1.
However flush_started_gen is now 2.
From here on out flushed_gen is always != to flush_started_gen and all
further requests will wait on flush_queue. This change replaces
flush_started_gen with an explicitly tracked active flush request.

Dell Equallogic iSCSI SANs have a very unusual advertised geometry:
$ iscsi-inq -e 1 -c $((0xb0)) iscsi://XXX/0
wsnz:0
maximum compare and write length:1
optimal transfer length granularity:0
maximum transfer length:0
optimal transfer length:0
maximum prefetch xdread xdwrite transfer length:0
maximum unmap lba count:30720
maximum unmap block descriptor count:2
optimal unmap granularity:30720
ugavalid:1
unmap granularity alignment:0
maximum write same length:30720
which says that both the maximum and the optimal discard size
is 15M. It is not immediately apparent if the device allows
discard requests not aligned to the optimal size, nor if it
allows discards at a finer granularity than the optimal size.
I tried to find details in the SCSI Commands Reference Manual
Rev. A on what valid values of maximum and optimal sizes are
permitted, but while that document mentions a "Block Limits
VPD Page", I couldn't actually find documentation of that page
or what values it would have, or if a SCSI device has an
advertisement of its minimal unmap granularity. So it is not
obvious to me whether the Dell Equallogic device is compliance
with the SCSI specification.
Fortunately, it is easy enough to support non-power-of-2 sizing,
even if it means we are less efficient than truly possible when
targetting that device (for example, it means that we refuse to
unmap anything that is not a multiple of 15M and aligned to a
15M boundary, even if the device truly does support a smaller
granularity where unmapping actually works).

Drivers should be able to rely on the block layer honoring the
max transfer length, rather than needing to return -EINVAL
(iscsi) or manually fragment things (nbd). We already fragment
write zeroes at the block layer; this patch adds the fragmentation
for normal writes, after requests have been aligned (fragmenting
before alignment would lead to multiple unaligned requests, rather
than just the head and tail).
When fragmenting a large request where FUA was requested, but
where we know that FUA is implemented by flushing all requests
rather than the given request, then we can still get by with
only one flush. Note, however, that we need a followup patch
to the raw format driver to avoid a regression in the number of
flushes actually issued.
The return value was previously nebulous on success (sometimes
zero, sometimes the length written); since we never have a short
write, and since fragmenting may store yet another positive
value in 'ret', change the function to always return 0 on success,
matching what we do in bdrv_aligned_preadv().

Some guests (win2008 server for example) do a lot of unnecessary
flushing when underlying media has not changed. This adds additional
overhead on host when calling fsync/fdatasync.
This change introduces a write generation scheme in BlockDriverState.
Current write generation is checked against last flushed generation to
avoid unnessesary flushes.
The problem with excessive flushing was found by a performance test
which does parallel directory tree creation (from 2 processes).
Results improved from 0.424 loops/sec to 0.432 loops/sec.
Each loop creates 10^3 directories with 10 files in each.
This affected some blkdebug testcases that were expecting error logs from
failure-injected flushes which are now skipped entirely
(tests 026 071 089).
This also affects the performance of block jobs and thus BLOCK_JOB_READY
events for driver-mirror and active block-commit commands now arrives
faster, before QMP send successfully returns to caller (tests 141 144).

because direct use of a BlockDriverState isn't possible any more and
blk->root is private for block-backends.c.

Sector-based limits are awkward to think about; in our on-going

discard_alignment. Rename them, using 'pdiscard' as an aid to
track which remaining discard interfaces need conversion, and so
that the compiler will help us catch the change in semantics
across any rebased code. The BlockLimits type is now completely
byte-based; and in iscsi.c, sector_limits_lun2qemu() is no
longer needed.
pdiscard_alignment is made unsigned (we use power-of-2 alignments
as bitmasks, where unsigned is easier to think about) while
leaving max_pdiscard signed (since we still have an 'int'
interface); this is comparable to what commit cf081fc did for
write zeroes limits. We may later want to make everything an
