dm-inlinecrypt: add target for inline block device encryption

Add a new device-mapper target "dm-inlinecrypt" that is similar to
dm-crypt but uses the blk-crypto API instead of the regular crypto API.
This allows it to take advantage of inline encryption hardware such as
that commonly built into UFS host controllers.

The table syntax matches dm-crypt's, but for now only a stripped-down
set of parameters is supported. For example, for now AES-256-XTS is the
only supported cipher.

dm-inlinecrypt is based on Android's dm-default-key with the
controversial passthrough support removed. Note that due to the removal
of passthrough support, use of dm-inlinecrypt in combination with
fscrypt causes double encryption of file contents (similar to dm-crypt +
fscrypt), with the fscrypt layer not being able to use the inline
encryption hardware. This makes dm-inlinecrypt unusable on systems such
as Android that use fscrypt and where a more optimized approach is
needed. It is however suitable as a replacement for dm-crypt.

dm-inlinecrypt supports both keyring key and hex key, the former avoids
the key to be exposed in dm-table message. Similar to dm-default-key in
Android, it will fallabck to the software block crypto once the inline
crypto hardware cannot support the expected cipher.

Test:
dmsetup create inlinecrypt_logon --table "0 `blockdev --getsz $1` \
inlinecrypt aes-xts-plain64 :64:logon:fde:dminlinecrypt_test_key 0 $1 0"

dm-pcache: add persistent cache target in device-mapper

This patch introduces dm-pcache, a new DM target that places a DAX-
capable persistent-memory device in front of any slower block device and
uses it as a high-throughput, low-latency cache.

Design highlights
-----------------
- DAX data path – data is copied directly between DRAM and the pmem
mapping, bypassing the block layer’s overhead.

- Segmented, crash-consistent layout
- all layout metadata are dual-replicated CRC-protected.
- atomic kset flushes; key replay on mount guarantees cache integrity
even after power loss.

- Striped multi-tree index
- Multi‑tree indexing for high parallelism.
- overlap-resolution logic ensures non-intersecting cached extents.

- Background services
- write-back worker flushes dirty keys in order, preserving backing-device
crash consistency. This is important for checkpoint in cloud storage.
- garbage collector reclaims clean segments when utilisation exceeds a
tunable threshold.

- Data integrity – optional CRC32 on cached payload; metadata always protected.

Comparison with existing block-level caches
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Feature | pcache (this patch) | bcache | dm-writecache |
|----------------------------------|---------------------------------|------------------------------|---------------------------|
| pmem access method | DAX | bio (block I/O) | DAX |
| Write latency (4 K rand-write) | ~5 µs | ~20 µs | ~5 µs |
| Concurrency | multi subtree index | global index tree | single tree + wc_lock |
| IOPS (4K randwrite, 32 numjobs) | 2.1 M | 352 K | 283 K |
| Read-cache support | YES | YES | NO |
| Deployment | no re-format of backend | backend devices must be | no re-format of backend |
| | | reformatted | |
| Write-back ordering | log-structured; | no ordering guarantee | no ordering guarantee |
| | preserves app-IO-order | | |
| Data integrity checks | metadata + data CRC(optional) | metadata CRC only | none |

- MD pull request via Yu:
- Add support for a lockless bitmap.

A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is
lockless. If a user issues lots of write IO to the same bitmap
bit in a short time, only the first write has additional overhead
to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following
writes.

By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the
case creating new array or replacing with a new disk, there is no
need to do a full disk resync/recovery.

- Switch ->getgeo() and ->bios_param() to using struct gendisk rather
than struct block_device.

- Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via
configfs and remote completion to the rnull driver. The series also
includes a set of changes to the rust block device driver API: a few
cleanup patches, and a few features supporting the rnull changes.

The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from
`kernel::block` and improves the logic available in `kernel::string`
to support the same use as the removed logic.

- floppy arch cleanups

- Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands

- Restrict supported sockets for nbd. Mostly done to eliminate a class
of issues perpetually reported by syzbot, by using nonsensical socket
setups.

- A few s390 dasd block fixes

- Fix a few issues around atomic writes

- Improve DMA interation for integrity requests

- Improve how iovecs are treated with regards to O_DIRECT aligment
constraints.

We used to require each segment to adhere to the constraints, now
only the request as a whole needs to.

- Clean up and improve p2p support, enabling use of p2p for metadata
payloads

- Improve locking of request lookup, using SRCU where appropriate

- Use page references properly for brd, avoiding very long RCU sections

- Fix ordering of recursively submitted IOs

Pull MD changes from Yu Kuai:

"Redundant data is used to enhance data fault tolerance, and the storage
method for redundant data vary depending on the RAID levels. And it's
important to maintain the consistency of redundant data.

Bitmap is used to record which data blocks have been synchronized and
which ones need to be resynchronized or recovered. Each bit in the
bitmap represents a segment of data in the array. When a bit is set,
it indicates that the multiple redundant copies of that data segment
may not be consistent. Data synchronization can be performed based on
the bitmap after power failure or readding a disk. If there is no
bitmap, a full disk synchronization is required.

Due to known performance issues with md-bitmap and the unreasonable
implementations:

- self-managed IO submitting like filemap_write_page();
- global spin_lock

I have decided not to continue optimizing based on the current bitmap
implementation, this new bitmap is invented without locking from IO fast
path and can be used with fast disks.
