block: clean up request completion API
Request completion has gone through several changes and became a bit messy over the time. Clean it up. 1. end_that_request_data() is a thin wrapper around end_that_request_data_first() which checks whether bio is NULL before doing anything and handles bidi completion. blk_update_request() is a thin wrapper around end_that_request_data() which clears nr_sectors on the last iteration but doesn't use the bidi completion. Clean it up by moving the initial bio NULL check and nr_sectors clearing on the last iteration into end_that_request_data() and renaming it to blk_update_request(), which makes blk_end_io() the only user of end_that_request_data(). Collapse end_that_request_data() into blk_end_io(). 2. There are four visible completion variants - blk_end_request(), __blk_end_request(), blk_end_bidi_request() and end_request(). blk_end_request() and blk_end_bidi_request() uses blk_end_request() as the backend but __blk_end_request() and end_request() use separate implementation in __blk_end_request() due to different locking rules. blk_end_bidi_request() is identical to blk_end_io(). Collapse blk_end_io() into blk_end_bidi_request(), separate out request update into internal helper blk_update_bidi_request() and add __blk_end_bidi_request(). Redefine [__]blk_end_request() as thin inline wrappers around [__]blk_end_bidi_request(). 3. As the whole request issue/completion usages are about to be modified and audited, it's a good chance to convert completion functions return bool which better indicates the intended meaning of return values. 4. The function name end_that_request_last() is from the days when it was a public interface and slighly confusing. Give it a proper internal name - blk_finish_request(). 5. Add description explaning that blk_end_bidi_request() can be safely used for uni requests as suggested by Boaz Harrosh. The only visible behavior change is from #1. nr_sectors counts are cleared after the final iteration no matter which function is used to complete the request. I couldn't find any place where the code assumes those nr_sectors counters contain the values for the last segment and this change is good as it makes the API much more consistent as the end result is now same whether a request is completed using [__]blk_end_request() alone or in combination with blk_update_request(). API further cleaned up per Christoph's suggestion.
