[ Upstream commit f826ec7966a63d48e16e0868af4e038bf9a1a3ae ]

It is possible for physically contiguous folios to have discontiguous
struct pages if SPARSEMEM is enabled and SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is not.
This is correctly handled by folio_page_idx(), so remove this open-coded
implementation.

<title>scsi: sd_zbc: block: Respect bio vector limits for REPORT ZONES buffer</title>

commit e8007fad5457ea547ca63bb011fdb03213571c7e upstream.

The REPORT ZONES buffer size is currently limited by the HBA's maximum
segment count to ensure the buffer can be mapped. However, the block
layer further limits the number of iovec entries to 1024 when allocating
a bio.

To avoid allocation of buffers too large to be mapped, further restrict
the maximum buffer size to BIO_MAX_INLINE_VECS.

Replace the UIO_MAXIOV symbolic name with the more contextually
appropriate BIO_MAX_INLINE_VECS.

commit 7bed6f3d08b7af27b7015da8dc3acf2b9c1f21d7 upstream.

If the bio contains no data, bio_first_folio() calls page_folio() on a
NULL pointer and oopses.  Move the test that we've reached the end of
the bio from bio_next_folio() to bio_first_folio().

<title>block: don't make REQ_POLLED imply REQ_NOWAIT</title>

Normally these two flags do go together, as the issuer of polled IO
generally cannot wait for resources that will get freed as part of IO
completion. This is because that very task is the one that will complete
the request and free those resources, hence that would introduce a
deadlock.

But it is possible to have someone else issue the polled IO, eg via
io_uring if the request is punted to io-wq. For that case, it's fine to
have the task block on IO submission, as it is not the same task that
will be completing the IO.

It's completely up to the caller to ask for both polled and nowait IO
separately! If we don't allow polled IO where IOCB_NOWAIT isn't set in
the kiocb, then we can run into repeated -EAGAIN submissions and not
make any progress.
