    libceph: preallocate message data items · 0d9c1ab3
    Ilya Dryomov authored
    Currently message data items are allocated with ceph_msg_data_create()
    in setup_request_data() inside send_request().  send_request() has never
    been allowed to fail, so each allocation is followed by a BUG_ON:
    
      data = ceph_msg_data_create(...);
      BUG_ON(!data);
    
    It's been this way since support for multiple message data items was
    added in commit 6644ed7b ("libceph: make message data be a pointer")
    in 3.10.
    
    There is no reason to delay the allocation of message data items until
    the last possible moment and we certainly don't need a linked list of
    them as they are only ever appended to the end and never erased.  Make
    ceph_msg_new2() take max_data_items and adapt the rest of the code.
