Merge branch 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shli/md

Pull md updates from Shaohua Li:
 "Mainly fixes bugs and improves performance:

   - Improve scalability for raid1 from Coly

   - Improve raid5-cache read performance, disk efficiency and IO
     pattern from Song and me

   - Fix a race condition of disk hotplug for linear from Coly

   - A few cleanup patches from Ming and Byungchul

   - Fix a memory leak from Neil

   - Fix WRITE SAME IO failure from me

   - Add doc for raid5-cache from me"

* 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shli/md: (23 commits)
  md/raid1: fix write behind issues introduced by bio_clone_bioset_partial
  md/raid1: handle flush request correctly
  md/linear: shutup lockdep warnning
  md/raid1: fix a use-after-free bug
  RAID1: avoid unnecessary spin locks in I/O barrier code
  RAID1: a new I/O barrier implementation to remove resync window
  md/raid5: Don't reinvent the wheel but use existing llist API
  md: fast clone bio in bio_clone_mddev()
  md: remove unnecessary check on mddev
  md/raid1: use bio_clone_bioset_partial() in case of write behind
  md: fail if mddev->bio_set can't be created
  block: introduce bio_clone_bioset_partial()
  md: disable WRITE SAME if it fails in underlayer disks
  md/raid5-cache: exclude reclaiming stripes in reclaim check
  md/raid5-cache: stripe reclaim only counts valid stripes
  MD: add doc for raid5-cache
  Documentation: move MD related doc into a separate dir
  md: ensure md devices are freed before module is unloaded.
  md/r5cache: improve journal device efficiency
  md/r5cache: enable chunk_aligned_read with write back cache

  * Total log space (in sectors) needed to flush all data in cache
  *
- * Currently, writing-out phase automatically includes all pending writes
- * to the same sector. So the reclaim of each stripe takes up to
- * (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages of log space.
+ * To avoid deadlock due to log space, it is necessary to reserve log

  *
- * To totally avoid deadlock due to log space, the code reserves
- * (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages for each stripe in cache, which is not
- * necessary in most cases.
+ * To reduce log space requirements, two mechanisms are used to give cache
+ * flush higher priorities:
+ *    1. In handle_stripe_dirtying() and schedule_reconstruction(),
+ *       stripes ALREADY in journal can be flushed w/o pending writes;
+ *    2. In r5l_write_stripe() and r5c_cache_data(), stripes NOT in journal
+ *       can be delayed (r5l_add_no_space_stripe).
  *
- * To improve this, we will need writing-out phase to be able to NOT include
- * pending writes, which will reduce the requirement to
- * (conf->max_degraded + 1) pages per stripe in cache.
+ * In cache flush, the stripe goes through 1 and then 2. For a stripe that

+ * requires (conf->raid_disks + 1) pages of journal space. There are at
