Pull block handle updates from Christian Brauner:
"Last cycle we changed opening of block devices, and opening a block
device would return a bdev_handle. This allowed us to implement
support for restricting and forbidding writes to mounted block
devices. It was accompanied by converting and adding helpers to
operate on bdev_handles instead of plain block devices.
That was already a good step forward but ultimately it isn't necessary
to have special purpose helpers for opening block devices internally
that return a bdev_handle.
Fundamentally, opening a block device internally should just be
equivalent to opening files. So now all internal opens of block
devices return files just as a userspace open would. Instead of
introducing a separate indirection into bdev_open_by_*() via struct
bdev_handle bdev_file_open_by_*() is made to just return a struct
file. Opening and closing a block device just becomes equivalent to
opening and closing a file.
This all works well because internally we already have a pseudo fs for
block devices and so opening block devices is simple. There's a few
places where we needed to be careful such as during boot when the
kernel is supposed to mount the rootfs directly without init doing it.
Here we need to take care to ensure that we flush out any asynchronous
file close. That's what we already do for opening, unpacking, and
closing the initramfs. So nothing new here.
The equivalence of opening and closing block devices to regular files
is a win in and of itself. But it also has various other advantages.
We can remove struct bdev_handle completely. Various low-level helpers
are now private to the block layer. Other helpers were simply
removable completely.
A follow-up series that is already reviewed build on this and makes it
possible to remove bdev->bd_inode and allows various clean ups of the
buffer head code as well. All places where we stashed a bdev_handle
now just stash a file and use simple accessors to get to the actual
block device which was already the case for bdev_handle"

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart
from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks.
To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return
void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to
.remove_new(), which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers
are converted, .remove_new() will be renamed to .remove().
Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

In virtblk_read_zoned_limits(), setting a zoned block device maximum
number of open and active zones using the functions
disk_set_max_open_zones() and disk_set_max_active_zones() is incorrect
as setting the limits for the request queue is now done atomically when
the gendisk is created (with blk_mq_alloc_disk()). The value set by the
disk_set_max_open/active_zones() functions will be overwritten.
Fix this by setting the maximum number of open and active zones directly
in the queue_limits structure passed to virtblk_read_zoned_limits().

This patch is against CVE-2023-6270. The description of cve is:
A flaw was found in the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux
kernel. The aoecmd_cfg_pkts() function improperly updates the refcnt on
`struct net_device`, and a use-after-free can be triggered by racing
between the free on the struct and the access through the `skbtxq`
global queue. This could lead to a denial of service condition or
potential code execution.
In aoecmd_cfg_pkts(), it always calls dev_put(ifp) when skb initial
code is finished. But the net_device ifp will still be used in
later tx()->dev_queue_xmit() in kthread. Which means that the
dev_put(ifp) should NOT be called in the success path of skb
initial code in aoecmd_cfg_pkts(). Otherwise tx() may run into
use-after-free because the net_device is freed.
This patch removed the dev_put(ifp) in the success path in
aoecmd_cfg_pkts(), and added dev_put() after skb xmit in tx().

in an on-stack queue_limits structure and apply the atomically. Remove
various helpers that have become so trivial that they can be folded into
drbd_reconsider_queue_parameters.

nbd_config_put currently clears discard_sectors when unusing a device.
This is pretty odd behavior and different from the sector size
configuration which is simply left in places and then reconfigured when
nbd_set_size is as part of configuring the device. Change nbd_set_size
to clear discard_sectors if discard is not supported so that all the
queue limits changes are handled in one place.

pktcdvd sets max_hw_sectors on the queue of the underlying device that
it doesn't own (and doesn't reset it ever) since the driver was merged.
This can create all kinds of problems as the underlying driver doesn't
even know about it changing the limit.
As the state purpose is to not create I/Os larger than a single frame,
and pktcdvd never builds bios larger than that, just set REQ_NOMERGE
on the bios it submits so that largers I/Os never get built.
Note: I don't have packet writing hardware, so this is compile tested
only.

The current command UBLK_CMD_DEL_DEV won't return until the device is
released, this way looks more reliable, but makes userspace more
difficult to implement, especially about orders: unmap command
buffer(which holds one ublkc reference), ublkc close,
io_uring_file_unregister, ublkb close.
Add UBLK_CMD_DEL_DEV_ASYNC so that device deletion won't wait release,
then userspace needn't worry about the above order. Actually both loop
and nbd is deleted in this async way.

Firstly convert get_device() and put_device() into ublk_get_device()
and ublk_put_device().
Secondly annotate ublk_get_device() & ublk_put_device() as noinline
for trace, especially it is often to trigger device deletion hang
when incorrect order is used on ublkc mmap, ublkc close,
io_uring_sqe_unregister_file, ublkb close.

The bio based I/O path complicates null_blk and also make various
data structures, including the per-command one way bigger than
required for the main request based interface. As the bio-based
path is mostly used by stacking drivers and simple memory based
drivers, and brd is a good example driver for the latter there is
no need to have a bio based path in null_blk. Remove the path
to simplify the driver and make future block layer API changes
simpler by not having to deal with the complex two API setup in
null_blk.
Note that the queue_mode field in struct nullb_device is kept as
that is simpler than having two different places to check the
value and fully open coding the debugfs helpers as the existing
ones won't work without a named struct member.
