Debt forgiveness logic was counting the number of consecutive !busy periods
as the trigger condition. While this usually works, it can easily be thrown
off by temporary fluctuations especially on configurations w/ short periods.
This patch reimplements debt forgiveness so that:
* Use the average usage over the forgiveness period instead of counting
consecutive periods.
* Debt is reduced at around the target rate (1/2 every 100ms) regardless of
ioc period duration.
* Usage threshold is raised to 50%. Combined with the preceding changes and
the switch to average usage, this makes debt forgivness a lot more
effective at reducing the amount of unnecessary idleness.
* Constants are renamed with DFGV_ prefix.

Debt sets the initial delay duration which is decayed over time. The current
debt reduction halved the debt but didn't change the delay. It prevented
future debts from increasing delay but didn't do anything to lower the
existing delay, limiting the mechanism's ability to reduce unnecessary
idling.
Reset iocg->delay to 0 after debt reduction so that iocg_kick_waitq()
recalculates new delay value based on the reduced debt amount.

Debt reduction was blocked if any iocg was short on budget in the past
period to avoid reducing debts while some iocgs are saturated. However, this
ends up unnecessarily blocking debt reduction due to temporary local
imbalances when the device is generally being underutilized, while also
failing to block when the underlying device is overwhelmed and the usage
becomes low from high latency.
Given that debt accumulation mostly happens with swapout bursts which can
significantly deteriorate the underlying device's latency response, the
current logic is not great.
Let's replace it with ioc->busy_level based condition so that we block debt
reduction when the underlying device is being saturated. ioc_forgive_debts()
call is moved after busy_level determination.

The BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES is one of the few bits of information in the
backing_dev_info shared between the block drivers and the writeback code.
To help untangling the dependency replace it with a queue flag and a
superblock flag derived from it. This also helps with the case of e.g.
a file system requiring stable writes due to its own checksumming, but
not forcing it on other users of the block device like the swap code.
One downside is that we an't support the stable_pages_required bdi
attribute in sysfs anymore. It is replaced with a queue attribute which
also is writable for easier testing.

Just checking SB_I_CGROUPWB for cgroup writeback support is enough.
Either the file system allocates its own bdi (e.g. btrfs), in which case
it is known to support cgroup writeback, or the bdi comes from the block
layer, which always supports cgroup writeback.

Drivers shouldn't really mess with the readahead size, as that is a VM
concept. Instead set it based on the optimal I/O size by lifting the
algorithm from the md driver when registering the disk. Also set
bdi->io_pages there as well by applying the same scheme based on
max_sectors. To ensure the limits work well for stacking drivers a
new helper is added to update the readahead limits from the block
limits, which is also called from disk_stack_limits.

(2) find the first available swap device that can be written to

It is possible, albeit more unlikely, for a block device to have a non
power-of-2 for chunk_sectors (e.g. 10+2 RAID6 with 128K chunk_sectors,
which results in a full-stripe size of 1280K. This causes the RAID6's
io_opt to be advertised as 1280K, and a stacked device _could_ then be
made to use a blocksize, aka chunk_sectors, that matches non power-of-2
io_opt of underlying RAID6 -- resulting in stacked device's
chunk_sectors being a non power-of-2).
Update blk_queue_chunk_sectors() and blk_max_size_offset() to
accommodate drivers that need a non power-of-2 chunk_sectors.

Like 'io_opt', blk_stack_limits() should stack 'chunk_sectors' using
lcm_not_zero() rather than min_not_zero() -- otherwise the final
'chunk_sectors' could result in sub-optimal alignment of IO to
component devices in the IO stack.
Also, if 'chunk_sectors' isn't a multiple of 'physical_block_size'
then it is a bug in the driver and the device should be flagged as
'misaligned'.

The tg_may_dispatch() will call tg_with_in_bps_limit() and
tg_with_in_iops_limit() to check if we can dispatch a bio or
not, which will calculate bps/iops limitation multiple times.
But tg_may_dispatch() is always called under queue lock, which
means the bps/iops limitation will not change in tg_may_dispatch().
So we can calculate the bps/iops limitation only once, and pass
them to tg_with_in_bps_limit() and tg_with_in_iops_limit() to
avoid calculating bps/iops limitation repeatedly.
