This patch adds support for controlling the IO completion CPU of
either all requests on a queue, or on a per-request basis. We export
a sysfs variable (rq_affinity) which, if set, migrates completions
of requests to the CPU that originally submitted it. A bio helper
(bio_set_completion_cpu()) is also added, so that queuers can ask
for completion on that specific CPU.
In testing, this has been show to cut the system time by as much
as 20-40% on synthetic workloads where CPU affinity is desired.
This requires a little help from the architecture, so it'll only
work as designed for archs that are using the new generic smp
helper infrastructure.

Some block devices support verifying the integrity of requests by way
of checksums or other protection information that is submitted along
with the I/O.
This patch implements support for generating and verifying integrity
metadata, as well as correctly merging, splitting and cloning bios and
requests that have this extra information attached.
See Documentation/block/data-integrity.txt for more information.

This rename rq_init() blk_rq_init() and export it. Any path that hands
the request to the block layer needs to call it to initialize the
request.
This is a preparation for large command support, which needs to
initialize the request in a proper way (that is, just doing a memset()
will not work).
