When a filesystem is mounted from a loop device, writes are
throttled by balance_dirty_pages() twice: once when writing
to the filesystem and once when the loop_handle_cmd() writes
to the backing file. This double-throttling can trigger
positive feedback loops that create significant delays. The
throttling at the lower level is seen by the upper level as
a slow device, so it throttles extra hard.
The PF_LESS_THROTTLE flag was created to handle exactly this
circumstance, though with an NFS filesystem mounted from a
local NFS server. It reduces the throttling on the lower
layer so that it can proceed largely unthrottled.
To demonstrate this, create a filesystem on a loop device
and write (e.g. with dd) several large files which combine
to consume significantly more than the limit set by
/proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio or dirty_bytes. Measure the total
time taken.
When I do this directly on a device (no loop device) the
total time for several runs (mkfs, mount, write 200 files,
umount) is fairly stable: 28-35 seconds.
When I do this over a loop device the times are much worse
and less stable. 52-460 seconds. Half below 100seconds,
half above.
When I apply this patch, the times become stable again,
though not as fast as the no-loop-back case: 53-72 seconds.
There may be room for further improvement as the total overhead still
seems too high, but this is a big improvement.

DST_NOCACHE flag check has been removed from dst_release() and
dst_hold_safe() in a previous patch because all the dst are now ref
counted properly and can be released based on refcnt only.
Looking at the rest of the DST_NOCACHE use, all of them can now be
removed or replaced with other checks.
So this patch gets rid of all the DST_NOCACHE usage and remove this flag

In IPv6 routing code, struct rt6_info is created for each static route
and RTF_CACHE route and inserted into fib6 tree. In both cases, dst
ref count is not taken.
As explained in the previous patch, this leads to the need of the dst
garbage collector.
This patch holds ref count of dst before inserting the route into fib6
tree and properly releases the dst when deleting it from the fib6 tree
as a preparation in order to fully get rid of dst gc later.
Also, correct fib6_age() logic to check dst->__refcnt to be 1 to indicate
no user is referencing the dst.
And remove dst_hold() in vrf_rt6_create() as ip6_dst_alloc() already puts
dst->__refcnt to 1.

need not be protected with struct_mutex. They can be protected

The test for INTx masking via PCI_COMMAND_INTX_DISABLE performed in
pci_intx_mask_supported() should be done before the device can be used.
This is to avoid writing PCI_COMMAND while the driver owns the device, in
case that has any effect on MSI/MSI-X interrupts.
Move the content of pci_intx_mask_supported() to pci_intx_mask_broken() and
call it from pci_setup_device().
The test result can be queried at any time later using the same
pci_intx_mask_supported() interface as before (though with changed
implementation), so callers (uio, vfio) should be unaffected.

This creates a new command submission chunk for amdgpu
to add in and out sync objects around the submission.
Sync objects are managed via the drm syncobj ioctls.
The command submission interface is enhanced with two new
chunks, one for syncobj pre submission dependencies,
and one for post submission sync obj signalling,
and just takes a list of handles for each.
This is based on work originally done by David Zhou at AMD,
with input from Christian Konig on what things should look like.
In theory VkFences could be backed with sync objects and
just get passed into the cs as syncobj handles as well.
NOTE: this interface addition needs a version bump to expose
it to userspace.
TODO: update to dep_sync when rebasing onto amdgpu master.

v2: move to using syncobjs

When booting into the kdump/kexec kernel, pHyp and vios
are not prepared for the initialization crq request and
a failover transport event is generated. This is not
handled correctly.
At this point in initialization the driver is still in
the 'probing' state and cannot handle a full reset of the
driver as is normally done for a failover transport event.
To correct this we catch driver resets while still in the
'probing' state and return EAGAIN. This results in the
driver tearing down the main crq and calling ibmvnic_init()
again.
