Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is a bit bigger than it should be, but I could (did) not want to
send it off last week due to both wanting extra testing, and expecting
a fix for the bounce regression as well. In any case, this contains:- Fix for the blk-merge.c compilation warning on gcc 5.x from me.
- A set of back/front SG gap merge fixes, from me and from Sagi.
This ensures that we honor SG gapping for integrity payloads as
well.- Two small fixes for null_blk from Matias, fixing a leak and a
capacity propagation issue.- A blkcg fix from Tejun, fixing a NULL dereference.
- A fast clone optimization from Ming, fixing a performance
regression since the arbitrarily sized bio's were introduced.- Also from Ming, a regression fix for bouncing IOs"

When bio bounce is involved, one new bio and its biovecs are
cloned from the comming bio, which can be one fast-cloned bio
from upper layer(such as dm).So it is obviously wrong to assume the start index of the coming(
original) bio's io vector is zero, which can be any value between
0 and (bi_max_vecs - 1), especially in case of bio split.This patch fixes Fedora's booting oops on i386, often with the

Pull ext3 removal, quota & udf fixes from Jan Kara:
"The biggest change in the pull is the removal of ext3 filesystem
driver (~28k lines removed). Ext4 driver is a full featured
replacement these days and both RH and SUSE use it for several years
without issues. Also there are some workarounds in VM & block layer
mainly for ext3 which we could eventually get rid of.Other larger change is addition of proper error handling for
dquot_initialize(). The rest is small fixes and cleanups"[ I wasn't convinced about the ext3 removal and worried about things
falling through the cracks for legacy users, but ext4 maintainers
piped up and were all unanimously in favor of removal, and maintaining
all legacy ext3 support inside ext4. - Linus ]* 'for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs:

Some places use helpers now, others don't. We only have the 'is set'
helper, add helpers for setting and clearing flags too.It was a bit of a mess of atomic vs non-atomic access. With
BIO_UPTODATE gone, we don't have any risk of concurrent access to the
flags. So relax the restriction and don't make any of them atomic. The
flags that do have serialization issues (reffed and chained), we
already handle those separately.Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:
(1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
(2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callbackThe first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it. c files
which need access to more backing-dev details now include
backing-dev.h directly. This takes backing-dev.h off the common
include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
and cgroup.v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.

printk is meant to be used with an associated log level. There are some
instances of printk scattered around the mm code where the log level is
missing. Add a log level and adhere to suggestions by
scripts/checkpatch.pl by moving to the pr_* macros.Also add the typical pr_fmt definition so that print statements can be
easily traced back to the modules where they occur, correlated one with
another, etc. This will require the removal of some (now redundant)
