The blk_queue_discard() and blk_queue_sector_erase() functions
slightly exceed the allowed 4096 maximum stack frame size when
building with the RedHat debug kernel which causes their
configure checks to fail.
Add an exception for these two tests so the interfaces are
correctly detected.

Add support for the kernel's block multiqueue (blk-mq) interface in
the zvol block driver. blk-mq creates multiple request queues on
different CPUs rather than having a single request queue. This can
improve zvol performance with multithreaded reads/writes.
This implementation uses the blk-mq interfaces on 4.13 or newer
kernels. Building against older kernels will fall back to the
older BIO interfaces.
Note that you must set the `zvol_use_blk_mq` module param to
enable the blk-mq API. It is disabled by default.
In addition, this commit lets the zvol blk-mq layer process whole
`struct request` IOs at a time, rather than breaking them down
into their individual BIOs. This reduces dbuf lock contention
and overhead versus the legacy zvol submit_bio() codepath.
sequential dd to one zvol, 8k volblocksize, no O_DIRECT:
legacy submit_bio() 292MB/s write 453MB/s read
this commit 453MB/s write 885MB/s read
It also introduces a new `zvol_blk_mq_chunks_per_thread` module
parameter. This parameter represents how many volblocksize'd chunks
to process per each zvol thread. It can be used to tune your zvols
for better read vs write performance (higher values favor write,
lower favor read).

Linux 5.19 commit torvalds/linux@44abff2c0 removed the
blk_queue_secure_erase() helper function. The preferred
interface is to now use the bdev_max_secure_erase_sectors()
function to check for discard support.

The compiler appears to be expanding the unused NULL pointer into a
zero-length array via the inline bitops code. When -Werror=array-bounds
is used, this causes a build failure. Recommended solution is allocate
temporary structures, fill with zeros (to avoid uninitialized data use
warnings), and pass the pointer to those to the inline calls.

The 5.15 kernel moved the backing_dev_info structure out of
the request queue structure which causes a build failure.
Rather than look in the new location for the BDI we instead
detect this upstream refactoring by the existance of either
the blk_queue_update_readahead() or disk_update_readahead()
functions. In either case, there's no longer any reason to
manually set the ra_pages value since it will be overridden
with a reasonable default (2x the block size) when
blk_queue_io_opt() is called.
Therefore, we update the compatibility wrapper to do nothing
for 5.9 and newer kernels. While it's tempting to do the
same for older kernels we want to keep the compatibility
code to preserve the existing behavior. Removing it would
effectively increase the default readahead to 128k.

Increase the minimum supported kernel version from 2.6.32 to 3.10.
This removes support for the following Linux enterprise distributions.
Distribution | Kernel | End of Life
---------------- | ------ | -------------
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 3.2 | Apr 28, 2017
SLES 11 | 3.0 | Mar 32, 2019
RHEL / CentOS 6 | 2.6.32 | Nov 30, 2020
The following changes were made as part of removing support.
* Updated `configure` to enforce a minimum kernel version as
specified in the META file (Linux-Minimum: 3.10).
configure: error:
*** Cannot build against kernel version 2.6.32.
*** The minimum supported kernel version is 3.10.
* Removed all `configure` kABI checks and matching C code for
interfaces which solely predate the Linux 3.10 kernel.
* Updated all `configure` kABI checks to fail when an interface is
missing which was in the 3.10 kernel up to the latest 5.1 kernel.
Removed the HAVE_* preprocessor defines for these checks and
updated the code to unconditionally use the verified interface.
* Inverted the detection logic in several kABI checks to match
the new interface as it appears in 3.10 and newer and not the
legacy interface.
* Consolidated the following checks in to individual files. Due
the large number of changes in the checks it made sense to handle
this now. It would be desirable to group other related checks in
the same fashion, but this as left as future work.
- config/kernel-blkdev.m4 - Block device kABI checks
- config/kernel-blk-queue.m4 - Block queue kABI checks
- config/kernel-bio.m4 - Bio interface kABI checks
* Removed the kABI checks for sops->nr_cached_objects() and
sops->free_cached_objects(). These interfaces are currently unused.
