Now that we're tracking dirty data per stripe, we can add two optimizations for raid5/6: * If a stripe is already dirty, force writes to that stripe to writeback mode - to help build up full stripes of dirty data * When flushing dirty data, preferentially write out full stripes first if there are any.

To make background writeback aware of raid5/6 stripes, we first need to track the amount of dirty data within each stripe - we do this by breaking up the existing sectors_dirty into per stripe atomic_ts Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>

Previously, dirty_data wouldn't get initialized until the first garbage collection... which was a bit of a problem for background writeback (as the PD controller keys off of it) and also confusing for users. This is also prep work for making background writeback aware of raid5/6 stripes. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>

The old lazy sorting code was kind of hacky - rewrite in a way that mathematically makes more sense; the idea is that the size of the sets of keys in a btree node should increase by a more or less fixed ratio from smallest to biggest. Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>

Old gcc doesnt like the struct hack, and it is kind of ugly. So finish off the work to convert pr_debug() statements to tracepoints, and delete pkey()/pbtree(). Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>

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.

The most significant change is that btree reads are now done synchronously, instead of asynchronously and doing the post read stuff from a workqueue. This was originally done because we can't block on IO under generic_make_request(). But - we already have a mechanism to punt cache lookups to workqueue if needed, so if we just use that we don't have to deal with the complexity of doing things asynchronously. The main benefit is this makes the locking situation saner; we can hold our write lock on the btree node until we're finished reading it, and we don't need that btree_node_read_done() flag anymore. Also, for writes, btree_write() was broken out into btree_node_write() and btree_leaf_dirty() - the old code with the boolean argument was dumb and confusing. The prio_blocked mechanism was improved a bit too, now the only counter is in struct btree_write, we don't mess with transfering a count from struct btree anymore. This required changing garbage collection to block prios at the start and unblock when it finishes, which is cleaner than what it was doing anyways (the old code had mostly the same effect, but was doing it in a convoluted way) And the btree iter btree_node_read_done() uses was converted to a real mempool.

An old version of gcc was complaining about using a const int as the size of a stack allocated array. Which should be fine - but using ARRAY_SIZE() is better, anyways. Also, refactor the code to use scnprintf(). Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@google.com>

Pull ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki: - Fix for a regression causing a failure to turn on some devices on some systems during initialization introduced by a recent revert of an ACPI PM change that broke something else. Fortunately, we know exactly what devices are affected, so we can add a fix just for them leaving everyone else alone. - ACPI power resources initialization fix preventing a NULL pointer from being dereferenced in the acpi_add_power_resource() error code path. - ACPI dock station driver fix that adds missing locking to write_undock(). - ACPI resources allocation fix changing the scope of an old workaround so that it doesn't affect systems that aren't actually buggy. This was reported a couple of days ago to fix DMA problems on some new platforms so we need it in -stable.
