The new bio_split() can split arbitrary bios - it's not restricted to
single page bios, like the old bio_split() (previously renamed to
bio_pair_split()). It also has different semantics - it doesn't allocate
a struct bio_pair, leaving it up to the caller to handle completions.

Then convert the existing bio_pair_split() users to the new bio_split()
- and also nvme, which was open coding bio splitting.

(We have to take that BUG_ON() out of bio_integrity_trim() because this
bio_split() needs to use it, and there's no reason it has to be used on
bios marked as cloned; BIO_CLONED doesn't seem to have clearly
documented semantics anyways.)

<title>block: Kill bio_segments()/bi_vcnt usage</title>

<content type='text'>
When we start sharing biovecs, keeping bi_vcnt accurate for splits is
going to be error prone - and unnecessary, if we refactor some code.

So bio_segments() has to go - but most of the existing users just needed
to know if the bio had multiple segments, which is easier - add a
bio_multiple_segments() for them.

(Two of the current uses of bio_segments() are going to go away in a
couple patches, but the current implementation of bio_segments() is
unsafe as soon as we start doing driver conversions for immutable
biovecs - so implement a dumb version for bisectability, it'll go away
in a couple patches)

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames
things.

<title>md: fix buglet in RAID5 -&gt; RAID0 conversion.</title>

RAID5 uses a 'per-array' value for the 'size' of each device.
RAID0 uses a 'per-device' value - it can be different for each device.

When converting a RAID5 to a RAID0 we must ensure that the per-device
size of each device matches the per-array size for the RAID5, else
the array will change size.

If the metadata cannot record a changed per-device size (as is the
case with v0.90 metadata) the array could get bigger on restart.  This
does not cause data corruption, so it not a big issue and is mainly
yet another a reason to not use 0.90.

<title>block: Change bio_split() to respect the current value of bi_idx</title>

<content type='text'>
In the current code bio_split() won't be seeing partially completed bios
so this doesn't change any behaviour, but this makes the code a bit
clearer as to what bio_split() actually requires.

The immediate purpose of the patch is removing unnecessary bi_idx
references, but the end goal is to allow partial completed bios to be
submitted, which along with immutable biovecs enables effecient bio
splitting.

Some of the callers were (double) checking that bios could be split, so
update their checks too.

Bunch of places in the code weren't using it where they could be -
this'll reduce the size of the patch that puts bi_sector/bi_size/bi_idx
into a struct bvec_iter.

Create_stripe_zones returns an error slightly differently to
raid0_run and to raid0_takeover_*.

The error returned used by the second was wrong and an error would
result in mddev-&gt;private being set to NULL and sooner or later a
crash.

So never return NULL, return ERR_PTR(err), not NULL from
create_stripe_zones.

This bug has been present since 2.6.35 so the fix is suitable
for any kernel since then.

You cannot resize a RAID0 array (in terms of making the devices
bigger), but the code doesn't entirely stop you.
So:

 disable setting of the available size on each device for
 RAID0 and Linear devices.  This must not change as doing so
 can change the effective layout of data.

 Make sure that the size that raid0_size() reports is accurate,
 but rounding devices sizes to chunk sizes.  As the device sizes
 cannot change now, this isn't so important, but it is best to be
 safe.

Without this change:
  mdadm --grow /dev/md0 -z max
  mdadm --grow /dev/md0 -Z max
  then read to the end of the array

can cause a BUG in a RAID0 array.

These bugs have been present ever since it became possible
to resize any device, which is a long time.  So the fix is
suitable for any -stable kerenl.
