fix block device size update serialization v2

fix block device size update serialization v2

[Christoph Hellwig]

Hi Jens,

this series fixes how we update i_size for the block device inodes (and
thus the block device).  Different helpers use two different locks
(bd_mutex and i_rwsem) to protect the update, and it appears device
mapper uses yet another internal lock.  A lot of the drivers do the
update handcrafted in often crufty ways.  And in addition to that mess
it turns out that the "main" lock, bd_mutex is pretty dead lock prone
vs other spots in the block layer that acquire it during revalidation
operations, as reported by Xianting.

Fix all that by adding a dedicated spinlock just for the size updates.

Changes since v1:
 - don't call __invalidate_device under the new spinlock
 - don't call into the file system code from the nvme removal code

[PATCH 1/3] block: replace bd_set_size with bd_set_nr_sectors

[Christoph Hellwig]

Replace bd_set_size with a version that takes the number of sectors
instead, as that fits most of the current and future callers much better.

[PATCH 2/3] block: fix locking for struct block_device size updates

[Christoph Hellwig]

Two different callers use two different mutexes for updating the
block device size, which obviously doesn't help to actually protect
against concurrent updates from the different callers.  In addition
one of the locks, bd_mutex is rather prone to deadlocks with other
parts of the block stack that use it for high level synchronization.

Switch to using a new spinlock protecting just the size updates, as
that is all we need, and make sure everyone does the update through
the proper helper.

This fixes a bug reported with the nvme revalidating disks during a
hot removal operation, which can currently deadlock on bd_mutex.

[PATCH 2/3] block: fix locking for struct block_device size updates

[Christoph Hellwig]

Two different callers use two different mutexes for updating the
block device size, which obviously doesn't help to actually protect
against concurrent updates from the different callers.  In addition
one of the locks, bd_mutex is rather prone to deadlocks with other
parts of the block stack that use it for high level synchronization.

Switch to using a new spinlock protecting just the size updates, as
that is all we need, and make sure everyone does the update through
the proper helper.

This fixes a bug reported with the nvme revalidating disks during a
hot removal operation, which can currently deadlock on bd_mutex.

[PATCH 3/3] nvme: don't call revalidate_disk from nvme_set_queue_dying

[Christoph Hellwig]

In nvme_set_queue_dying we really just want to ensure the disk and bdev
sizes are set to zero.  Going through revalidate_disk leads to a somewhat
arcance and complex callchain relying on special behavior in a few
places.  Instead just lift the set_capacity directly to
nvme_set_queue_dying, and rename and move the nvme_mpath_update_disk_size
helper so that we can use it in nvme_set_queue_dying to propagate the
size to the bdev without detours.
