The VM and VFS use the address_space_backing_dev_info to track the realtime
status of the device which backs the mapping.  The read_congested and
write_congested fields are used to determine whether a read or write
against that device may block.

We use this infrastructure to

a) allow pdflush to service many queues in parallel (by not getting
   stuck on any particular one) and

b) to avoid undesirable and uncontrolled latencies in places such as
   page reclaim and

c) To avoid blocking in readahead operations

The current code only supports simple disk queues (and I have a patch here
for NFS).  Stacked queues (MD and DM) don't get this information right and
problems were expected.  Efficiency problems have now been noted and it's
time to fix it.

This patch lays down the infrastructure which permits the queue
implementation to get control when someone at a higher level is querying
the queue's congestion state.  So DM (for example) can run around and
examine all the queues which contribute to the higher-level queue.


It also adds bdi_rw_congested() for code in xfs and ext2 that calls both
bdi_read_congested() and bdi_write_congested() in a row, and it was "free"
anyway.

zfcp host adapter log message cleanup part 1:
 - Shorten log output.
 - Increase log level for some messages.
 - Always print leading zeroes for wwpn and fcp-lun.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

zfcp host adapter fixes:
 - Reuse freed scsi_ids and scsi_luns for mappings.
 - Order list of ports/units by assigned scsi_id/scsi_lun.
 - Don't update max_id/max_lun in scsi_host anymore.
 - Get rid of all magics.
 - Add owner field to ccw_driver structure.
 - Avoid deadlock on bus->subsys.rwsem.
 - Use a macro for all scsi device sysfs attributes.
 - Change proc_name from "dummy" to "zfcp".
 - Don't wait for scsi_add_device to complete while holding a semaphore.
 - Cleanup include files in zfcp_aux.c & zfcp_def.h.
 - Get rid of zfcp_erp_fsf_req_handler.
 - Proper link up/down handling.
 - Avoid possible NULL pointer dereference in zfcp_erp_schedule_work.
 - Remove module_exit function. Without an external release function for
   the zfcp_port/zfcp_unit objects module unloading is racy.

The following patch consolidates redundant code in various hugetlb
implementations.  I took the liberty of renaming a few things, since the
code was all moved anyway, and it has the benefit of helping to catch
missed conversions and/or consolidations.
