Linus Torvalds 1081230b74 Merge branch 'for-4.3/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull core block updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This first core part of the block IO changes contains:

   - Cleanup of the bio IO error signaling from Christoph.  We used to
     rely on the uptodate bit and passing around of an error, now we
     store the error in the bio itself.

   - Improvement of the above from myself, by shrinking the bio size
     down again to fit in two cachelines on x86-64.

   - Revert of the max_hw_sectors cap removal from a revision again,
     from Jeff Moyer.  This caused performance regressions in various
     tests.  Reinstate the limit, bump it to a more reasonable size
     instead.

   - Make /sys/block/<dev>/queue/discard_max_bytes writeable, by me.
     Most devices have huge trim limits, which can cause nasty latencies
     when deleting files.  Enable the admin to configure the size down.
     We will look into having a more sane default instead of UINT_MAX
     sectors.

   - Improvement of the SGP gaps logic from Keith Busch.

   - Enable the block core to handle arbitrarily sized bios, which
     enables a nice simplification of bio_add_page() (which is an IO hot
     path).  From Kent.

   - Improvements to the partition io stats accounting, making it
     faster.  From Ming Lei.

   - Also from Ming Lei, a basic fixup for overflow of the sysfs pending
     file in blk-mq, as well as a fix for a blk-mq timeout race
     condition.

   - Ming Lin has been carrying Kents above mentioned patches forward
     for a while, and testing them.  Ming also did a few fixes around
     that.

   - Sasha Levin found and fixed a use-after-free problem introduced by
     the bio->bi_error changes from Christoph.

   - Small blk cgroup cleanup from Viresh Kumar"
