block: move integrity information into queue_limits
Move the integrity information into the queue limits so that it can be set atomically with other queue limits, and that the sysfs changes to the read_verify and write_generate flags are properly synchronized. This also allows to provide a more useful helper to stack the integrity fields, although it still is separate from the main stacking function as not all stackable devices want to inherit the integrity settings. Even with that it greatly simplifies the code in md and dm. Note that the integrity field is moved as-is into the queue limits. While there are good arguments for removing the separate blk_integrity structure, this would cause a lot of churn and might better be done at a later time if desired. However the integrity field in the queue_limits structure is now unconditional so that various ifdefs can be avoided or replaced with IS_ENABLED(). Given that tiny size of it that seems like a worthwhile trade off. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Martin K.
