Subject: [PATCH 3/8] blk-mq: replace timeout synchronization with a RCU and generation based scheme

Currently, blk-mq timeout path synchronizes against the usual
issue/completion path using a complex scheme involving atomic
bitflags, REQ_ATOM_*, memory barriers and subtle memory coherence
rules.  Unfortunately, it contains quite a few holes.

There's a complex dancing around REQ_ATOM_STARTED and
REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE between issue/completion and timeout paths; however,
they don't have a synchronization point across request recycle
instances and it isn't clear what the barriers add.
blk_mq_check_expired() can easily read STARTED from N-2'th iteration,
deadline from N-1'th, blk_mark_rq_complete() against Nth instance.

In fact, it's pretty easy to make blk_mq_check_expired() terminate a
later instance of a request.  If we induce 5 sec delay before
time_after_eq() test in blk_mq_check_expired(), shorten the timeout to
2s, and issue back-to-back large IOs, blk-mq starts timing out
requests spuriously pretty quickly.  Nothing actually timed out.  It
just made the call on a recycle instance of a request and then
terminated a later instance long after the original instance finished.
The scenario isn't theoretical either.

This patch replaces the broken synchronization mechanism with a RCU
and generation number based one.

1. Each request has a u64 generation + state value, which can be
   updated only by the request owner.  Whenever a request becomes
   in-flight, the generation number gets bumped up too.  This provides
   the basis for the timeout path to distinguish different recycle
   instances of the request.

   Also, marking a request in-flight and setting its deadline are
   protected with a seqcount so that the timeout path can fetch both
   values coherently.

2. The timeout path fetches the generation, state and deadline.  If
   the verdict is timeout, it records the generation into a dedicated
   request abortion field and does RCU wait.

3. The completion path is also protected by RCU (from the previous
   patch) and checks whether the current generation number and state
   match the abortion field.  If so, it skips completion.

4. The timeout path, after RCU wait, scans requests again and
   terminates the ones whose generation and state still match the ones
   requested for abortion.

   By now, the timeout path knows that either the generation number
   and state changed if it lost the race or the completion will yield
   to it and can safely timeout the request.

While it's more lines of code, it's conceptually simpler, doesn't
depend on direct use of subtle memory ordering or coherence, and
hopefully doesn't terminate the wrong instance.

While this change makes REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE synchronization unnecessary
between issue/complete and timeout paths, REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE isn't
removed yet as it's still used in other places.  Future patches will
move all state tracking to the new mechanism and remove all bitops in
the hot paths.

v2: - Fixed BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER handling as pointed out by Jianchao.
    - s/request->gstate_seqc/request->gstate_seq/ as suggested by Peter.
    - READ_ONCE() added in blk_mq_rq_update_state() as suggested by Peter.

v3: - Fixed possible extended seqcount / u64_stats_sync read looping
      spotted by Peter.
    - MQ_RQ_IDLE was incorrectly being set in complete_request instead
      of free_request.  Fixed.

v4: - Rebased on top of hctx_lock() refactoring patch.
    - Added comment explaining the use of hctx_lock() in completion path.
