Merge tag 'for-linus-2019-10-26' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

Pull block and io_uring fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "A bit bigger than usual at this point in time, mostly due to some good
  bug hunting work by Pavel that resulted in three io_uring fixes from
  him and two from me. Anyway, this pull request contains:

   - Revert of the submit-and-wait optimization for io_uring, it can't
     always be done safely. It depends on commands always making
     progress on their own, which isn't necessarily the case outside of
     strict file IO. (me)

   - Series of two patches from me and three from Pavel, fixing issues
     with shared data and sequencing for io_uring.

   - Lastly, two timeout sequence fixes for io_uring (zhangyi)

   - Two nbd patches fixing races (Josef)

   - libahci regulator_get_optional() fix (Mark)"
