This series adds zoned block device support to btrfs.

Changes:
 - Enable the tree-log feature.
 - Treat conventional zones as sequential zones, so we can now allow
   mixed allocation of zone type device extents for one block group.
 - Implement log-structured superblock
   - No need for one conventional zone at the beggining of a device,
     anymore.
 - Fix deadlock of direct IO writing
 - Fix building with !CONFIG_BLK_DEV_ZONED (Johannes)
 - Fix leak of zone_info (Johannes)

Userland series will follows.

* Patch series description

A zoned block device consists of a number of zones. Zones are either
conventional and accepting random writes or sequential and requiring
that writes be issued in LBA order from each zone write pointer
position. This patch series ensures that the sequential write
constraint of sequential zones is respected while fundamentally not
changing BtrFS block and I/O management for block stored in
conventional zones.

To achieve this, the default chunk size of btrfs is changed on zoned
block devices so that chunks are always aligned to a zone. Allocation
of blocks within a chunk is changed so that the allocation is always
sequential from the beginning of the chunks. To do so, an allocation
pointer is added to block groups and used as the allocation hint.  The
allocation changes also ensure that blocks freed below the allocation
pointer are ignored, resulting in sequential block allocation
regardless of the chunk usage.

While the introduction of the allocation pointer ensures that blocks
will be allocated sequentially, I/Os to write out newly allocated
blocks may be issued out of order, causing errors when writing to
sequential zones.  To preserve the ordering, this patch series adds
some mutexes around allocation and submit_bio and serialize
them. Also, this series disable async checksum and submit to avoid
mixing the BIOs.

The zone of a chunk is reset to allow reuse of the zone only when the
block group is being freed, that is, when all the chunks of the block
group are unused.

For btrfs volumes composed of multiple zoned disks, a restriction is
added to ensure that all disks have the same zone size. This
restriction matches the existing constraint that all chunks in a block
group must have the same size.

* Serialization of write IOs

The most significant change from v2 is the serialization of sequential
block allocation and submit_bio using per block group mutex instead of
waiting and sorting BIOs in a buffer. This per block group mutex now
locked before allocation and released after all BIOs submission
finishes. The same method is used for both data and metadata IOs.

By using a mutex instead of a submit buffer, we must disable
EXTENT_PREALLOC entirely in HMZONED mode to prevent deadlocks. As a
result, INODE_MAP_CACHE and MIXED_BG are disabled in HMZONED mode, and
relocation inode is reworked to use btrfs_wait_ordered_range() after
each relocation instead of relying on preallocated file region.

Furthermore, asynchronous checksum is disabled in and inline with the
serialized block allocation and BIO submission. This allows preserving
sequential write IO order without introducing any new functionality
such as submit buffers. Async submit will be removed once we merge
cgroup writeback support patch series.

* Enabling tree-log

The tree-log feature does not work on HMZONED mode as is. Blocks for a
tree-log tree are allocated mixed with other metadata blocks, and btrfs
writes and syncs the tree-log blocks to devices at the time of fsync(),
which is different timing than a global transaction commit. As a result,
both writing tree-log blocks and writing other metadata blocks become
non-sequential writes which HMZONED mode must avoid.

This series introduces a dedicated block group for tree-log blocks to
create two metadata writing streams, one for tree-log blocks and the
other for metadata blocks. As a result, each write stream can now be
written to devices separately and sequentially.

* Log-structured superblock

Superblock (and its copies) is the only data structure in btrfs which
has a fixed location on a device. Since we cannot overwrite in a
sequential write required zone, we cannot place superblock in the
zone.

This series implements superblock log writing. It uses two zones as a
circular buffer to write updated superblocks. Once the first zone is
filled up, start writing into the second zone and reset the first
one. We can determine the postion of the latest superblock by reading
the write pointer information from a device.

* Patch series organization

Patch 1 introduces the HMZONED incompatible feature flag to indicate that
the btrfs volume was formatted for use on zoned block devices.

Patches 2 and 3 implement functions to gather information on the zones of
the device (zones type and write pointer position).

Patches 4 to 7 disable features which are not compatible with the
sequential write constraints of zoned block devices. These includes
RAID5/6, space_cache, NODATACOW, and fallocate.

Patch 8 implements the log-structured superblock writing.

Patches 9 and 10 tweak the extent buffer allocation for HMZONED mode
to implement sequential block allocation in block groups and chunks.

Patch 11 and 12 handles the case when write pointers of devices which
compose e.g., RAID1 block group devices, are a mismatch.

Patch 13 implement a zone reset for unused block groups.

Patches 14 to 20 implement the serialization of allocation and submit_bio
for several types of IO (non-compressed data, compressed data, direct IO,
and metadata). These include re-dirtying once-freed metadata blocks to
prevent write holes.

Patch 21 and 22 disable features which are not compatible with the
serialization to prevent deadlocks. These include MIXED_BG and
INODE_MAP_CACHE.

Patches 23 to 27 tweak some btrfs features work with HMZONED mode. These
include device-replace, relocation, repairing IO error, and tree-log.

Finally, patch 28 adds the HMZONED feature to the list of supported
features.

* Patch testing note

This series is based on kdave/for-5.5.

** Zone-aware util-linux

Since the log-structured superblock feature changed the location of
superblock magic, the current util-linux (libblkid) cannot detect
HMZONED btrfs anymore. You need to apply a to-be posted patch to
util-linux to make it "zone aware".

** Testing device

You can use tcmu-runer [1] to create an emulated zoned device backed
by a regular file. Here is a setup how-to:
http://zonedstorage.io/projects/tcmu-runner/#compilation-and-installation

[1] https://github.com/open-iscsi/tcmu-runner

You can also attach SMR disks on a host machine to a guest VM. Here is
a guide:
http://zonedstorage.io/projects/qemu/

** xfstests

We ran xfstests on HMZONED btrfs, and, if we omit some cases that are
known to fail currently, all test cases pass.

Cases that can be ignored:
1) failing also with the regular btrfs on regular devices,
2) trying to test fallocate feature without testing with
   "_require_xfs_io_command "falloc"",
3) trying to test incompatible features for HMZONED btrfs (e.g. RAID5/6)
4) trying to use incompatible setup for HMZONED btrfs (e.g. dm-linear
   not aligned to zone boundary, swap)
5) trying to create a file system with too small size, (we require at
   least 9 zones to initiate a HMZONED btrfs)
6) dropping original MKFS_OPTIONS ("-O hmzoned"), so it cannot create
   HMZONED btrfs (btrfs/003)
7) having ENOSPC which incurred by larger metadata block group size [2]

I will send a patch series for xfstests to handle these cases (2-6)
properly.

[2] For example, generic/275 try to fill a file system and see the
    ENOSPC behaviors. It creates 2GB (= 8 zones * 256 MB/zone) file
    system and tries to fill the FS using the "df"'s block
    count. Since we use 5 zones (1 for a superblock, 2 * 2 for
    meta/system dup), we cannot fill the FS over 51%. And the test
    fails telling us "could not sufficiently fill filesystem."

Also, you need to apply the following patch if you run xfstests with
tcmu devices. xfstests btrfs/003 failed to "_devmgt_add" after
"_devmgt_remove" without this patch.
