NVMe: Convert to blk-mq This converts the NVMe driver to a blk-mq request-based driver. The NVMe driver is currently bio-based and implements queue logic within itself. By using blk-mq, a lot of these responsibilities can be moved and simplified. The patch is divided into the following blocks: * Per-command data and cmdid have been moved into the struct request field. The cmdid_data can be retrieved using blk_mq_rq_to_pdu() and id maintenance are now handled by blk-mq through the rq->tag field. * The logic for splitting bio's has been moved into the blk-mq layer. The driver instead notifies the block layer about limited gap support in SG lists. * blk-mq handles timeouts and is reimplemented within nvme_timeout(). This both includes abort handling and command cancelation. * Assignment of nvme queues to CPUs are replaced with the blk-mq version. The current blk-mq strategy is to assign the number of mapped queues and CPUs to provide synergy, while the nvme driver assign as many nvme hw queues as possible. This can be implemented in blk-mq if needed. * NVMe queues are merged with the tags structure of blk-mq. * blk-mq takes care of setup/teardown of nvme queues and guards invalid accesses. Therefore, RCU-usage for nvme queues can be removed. * IO tracing and accounting are handled by blk-mq and therefore removed. * Queue suspension logic is replaced with the logic from the block layer.
