The memory allocated for the multiqueue policy's hash table doesn't need
to be physically contiguous. Use vzalloc() instead of kzalloc().
Fedora has been carrying this fix since 10/10/2013.
Failure seen during creation of a 10TB cached device with a 2048 sector
block size and 411GB cache size:

Pull core block IO changes from Jens Axboe:
"The major piece in here is the immutable bio_ve series from Kent, the
rest is fairly minor. It was supposed to go in last round, but
various issues pushed it to this release instead. The pull request
contains:
- Various smaller blk-mq fixes from different folks. Nothing major
here, just minor fixes and cleanups.
- Fix for a memory leak in the error path in the block ioctl code
from Christian Engelmayer.
- Header export fix from CaiZhiyong.
- Finally the immutable biovec changes from Kent Overstreet. This
enables some nice future work on making arbitrarily sized bios
possible, and splitting more efficient. Related fixes to immutable
bio_vecs:
- dm-cache immutable fixup from Mike Snitzer.
- btrfs immutable fixup from Muthu Kumar.
- bio-integrity fix from Nic Bellinger, which is also going to stable"

The cache's policy may have been established using the "default" alias,
which is currently the "mq" policy but the default policy may change in
the future. It is useful to know exactly which policy is being used.
Add a 'real' member to the dm_cache_policy_type structure and have the
"default" dm_cache_policy_type point to the real "mq"
dm_cache_policy_type. Update dm_cache_policy_get_name() to check if
real is set, if so report the name of the real policy (not the alias).

Internally the mq policy maintains a promotion threshold variable. If
the hit count of a block not in the cache goes above this threshold it
gets promoted to the cache.
This patch introduces three new tunables that allow you to tweak the
promotion threshold by adding a small value. These adjustments depend
on the io type:
read_promote_adjustment: READ io, default 4
write_promote_adjustment: WRITE io, default 8
discard_promote_adjustment: READ/WRITE io to a discarded block, default 1
If you're trying to quickly warm a new cache device you may wish to
reduce these to encourage promotion. Remember to switch them back to
their defaults after the cache fills though.

Micro benchmarks that repeatedly issued IO to a single block were
failing to cause a promotion from the origin device to the cache. Fix
this by not updating the stats during map() if -EWOULDBLOCK will be
returned.
The mq policy will only update stats, consider migration, etc, once per
tick period (a unit of time established between dm-cache core and the
policies).
When the IO thread calls the policy's map method, if it would like to
migrate the associated block it returns -EWOULDBLOCK, the IO then gets
handed over to a worker thread which handles the migration. The worker
thread calls map again, to check the migration is still needed (avoids a
race among other things). *BUT*, before this fix, if we were still in
the same tick period the stats were already updated by the previous map
call -- so the migration would no longer be requested.

Immutable biovecs are going to require an explicit iterator. To
implement immutable bvecs, a later patch is going to add a bi_bvec_done
member to this struct; for now, this patch effectively just renames
things.

Rather than storing the cblock in each cache entry, we allocate all
entries in an array and infer the cblock from the entry position.
Saves 4 bytes of memory per cache block. In addition, this gives us an
easy way of looking up cache entries by cblock.
We no longer need to keep an explicit bitset to track which cblocks
have been allocated. And no searching is needed to find free cblocks.

There are now two multiqueues for in cache blocks. A clean one and a
dirty one.
writeback_work comes from the dirty one. Demotions come from the clean
one.
There are two benefits:
- Performance improvement, since demoting a clean block is a noop.
- The cache cleans itself when io load is light.
