<content type='text'>
When an already remapped bio is resubmitted (e.g. by blk_queue_split),
bio_check_eod will compare the remapped bi_sector against the size
of the partition, leading to spurious I/O failures.

Skip the EOD check in this case.

<content type='text'>
Rework the I/O accounting for bio based drivers to use -&gt;bi_bdev.  This
means all drivers can now simply use bio_start_io_acct to start
accounting, and it will take partitions into account automatically.  To
end I/O account either bio_end_io_acct can be used if the driver never
remaps I/O to a different device, or bio_end_io_acct_remapped if the
driver did remap the I/O.

There is no good reason to reassign -&gt;bi_bdev when remapping the
partition-relative block number to the device wide one, as all the
information required by the drivers comes from the gendisk anyway.

Keeping the original -&gt;bi_bdev alive will allow to greatly simplify
the partition-away I/O accounting.

Replace the gendisk pointer in struct bio with a pointer to the newly

accessed with an extra indirection, but it also allows to directly
look up all information related to partition remapping.

Commit 20bd1d026aac ("scsi: sd: Keep disk read-only when re-reading
partition") addressed a long-standing problem with user read-only
policy being overridden as a result of a device-initiated revalidate.
The commit has since been reverted due to a regression that left some
USB devices read-only indefinitely.

To fix the underlying problems with revalidate we need to keep track
of hardware state and user policy separately.

The gendisk has been updated to reflect the current hardware state set
by the device driver. This is done to allow returning the device to
the hardware state once the user clears the BLKROSET flag.

The resulting semantics are as follows:

 - If BLKROSET sets a given partition read-only, that partition will
   remain read-only even if the underlying storage stack initiates a
   revalidate. However, the BLKRRPART ioctl will cause the partition
   table to be dropped and any user policy on partitions will be lost.

 - If BLKROSET has not been set, both the whole disk device and any
   partitions will reflect the current write-protect state of the
   underlying device.

Based on a patch from Martin K. Petersen &lt;martin.petersen@oracle.com&gt;.
