Merge branch 'raid1-read_balance' into md-6.9
From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@huawei.com> Co-developed-by: Paul Luse <paul.e.luse@linux.intel.com> The original idea is that Paul want to optimize raid1 read performance([1]), however, we think that the original code for read_balance() is quite complex, and we don't want to add more complexity. Hence we decide to refactor read_balance() first, to make code cleaner and easier for follow up. Before this patchset, read_balance() has many local variables and many branches, it want to consider all the scenarios in one iteration. The idea of this patch is to divide them into 4 different steps: 1) If resync is in progress, find the first usable disk, patch 5; Otherwise: 2) Loop through all disks and skipping slow disks and disks with bad blocks, choose the best disk, patch 10. If no disk is found: 3) Look for disks with bad blocks and choose the one with most number of sectors, patch 8. If no disk is found: 4) Choose first found slow disk with no bad blocks, or slow disk with most number of sectors, patch 7. Note that step 3) and step 4) are super code path, and performance should not be considered. And after this patchset, we'll continue to optimize read_balance for step 2), specifically how to choose the best rdev to read.
