trims to the device assumes the list is sorted. Don't apply the
optimization of not sorting the queue when we have SSDs to the
delete_queue, since it causes more discard traffic to the drive. While
one could argue that the higher levels should coalesce the trims,
that's not done today, so some optimization at this level is needed.

The existing algorithm selects a preferred leaf vdev based on offset of the zio
request modulo the number of members in the mirror. It assumes the devices are
of equal performance and that spreading the requests randomly over both drives
will be sufficient to saturate them. In practice this results in the leaf vdevs
being under utilized.
The new algorithm takes into the following additional factors:
* Load of the vdevs (number outstanding I/O requests)
* The locality of last queued I/O vs the new I/O request.
Within the locality calculation additional knowledge about the underlying vdev
is considered such as; is the device backing the vdev a rotating media device.
This results in performance increases across the board as well as significant
increases for predominantly streaming loads and for configurations which don't
have evenly performing devices.
The following are results from a setup with 3 Way Mirror with 2 x HD's and
1 x SSD from a basic test running multiple parrallel dd's.

In addition to the performance changes the code was also restructured, with
the help of Justin Gibbs, to provide a more logical flow which also ensures

When safety requirements are met, it allows to avoid passing I/O requests
to GEOM g_up/g_down thread, executing them directly in the caller context.
That allows to avoid CPU bottlenecks in g_up/g_down threads, plus avoid
several context switches per I/O.
The defined now safety requirements are:
- caller should not hold any locks and should be reenterable;
- callee should not depend on GEOM dual-threaded concurency semantics;
- on the way down, if request is unmapped while callee doesn't support it,
the context should be sleepable;
- kernel thread stack usage should be below 50%.
To keep compatibility with GEOM classes not meeting above requirements
new provider and consumer flags added:
- G_CF_DIRECT_SEND -- consumer code meets caller requirements (request);
- G_CF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- consumer code meets callee requirements (done);
- G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- provider code meets caller requirements (done);
- G_PF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- provider code meets callee requirements (request).
Capable GEOM class can set them, allowing direct dispatch in cases where
it is safe. If any of requirements are not met, request is queued to
g_up or g_down thread same as before.
Such GEOM classes were reviewed and updated to support direct dispatch:
CONCAT, DEV, DISK, GATE, MD, MIRROR, MULTIPATH, NOP, PART, RAID, STRIPE,
VFS, ZERO, ZFS::VDEV, ZFS::ZVOL, all classes based on g_slice KPI (LABEL,
MAP, FLASHMAP, etc).
To declare direct completion capability disk(9) KPI got new flag equivalent
to G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- DISKFLAG_DIRECT_COMPLETION. da(4) and ada(4) disk
drivers got it set now thanks to earlier CAM locking work.
This change more then twice increases peak block storage performance on
systems with manu CPUs, together with earlier CAM locking changes reaching
more then 1 million IOPS (512 byte raw reads from 16 SATA SSDs on 4 HBAs to
256 user-level threads).

reduce lock congestion and improve SMP scalability of the SCSI/ATA stack,
preparing the ground for the coming next GEOM direct dispatch support.
Replace big per-SIM locks with bunch of smaller ones:
- per-LUN locks to protect device and peripheral drivers state;
- per-target locks to protect list of LUNs on target;
- per-bus locks to protect reference counting;
- per-send queue locks to protect queue of CCBs to be sent;
- per-done queue locks to protect queue of completed CCBs;
- remaining per-SIM locks now protect only HBA driver internals.
While holding LUN lock it is allowed (while not recommended for performance
reasons) to take SIM lock. The opposite acquisition order is forbidden.
All the other locks are leaf locks, that can be taken anywhere, but should
not be cascaded. Many functions, such as: xpt_action(), xpt_done(),
xpt_async(), xpt_create_path(), etc. are no longer require (but allow) SIM
lock to be held.
To keep compatibility and solve cases where SIM lock can't be dropped, all
xpt_async() calls in addition to xpt_done() calls are queued to completion
threads for async processing in clean environment without SIM lock held.
Instead of single CAM SWI thread, used for commands completion processing
before, use multiple (depending on number of CPUs) threads. Load balanced
between them using "hash" of the device B:T:L address.
HBA drivers that can drop SIM lock during completion processing and have
sufficient number of completion threads to efficiently scale to multiple
CPUs can use new function xpt_done_direct() to avoid extra context switch.
Make ahci(4) driver to use this mechanism depending on hardware setup.

While these operations are not really needed otherwise, at least for SCSI
they may cause extra errors if some other initiator holds write exclusive
reservation on the LUN (SYNCHRONIZE CACHE handled as "write" operation).
While GEOM in general has provider opened while sending BIO_GETATTR,
GEOM DISK does not really need to open disk to read medium-unrelated
attributes for own use.

sys/geom/geom_disk.h:
- Added d_delmaxsize which represents the maximum size of individual
device delete requests in bytes. This can be used by devices to
inform geom of their size limitations regarding delete operations
which are generally different from the read / write limits as data
is not usually transferred from the host to physical device.
sys/geom/geom_disk.c:
- Use new d_delmaxsize to calculate the size of chunks passed through to
the underlying strategy during deletes instead of using read / write
optimised values. This defaults to d_maxsize if unset (0).
- Moved d_maxsize default up so it can be used to default d_delmaxsize

sys/cam/scsi/scsi_da.c:

- Added kern.cam.da.X.delete_max sysctl which allows the max size for
delete requests to be limited. This is useful in preventing timeouts
on devices who's delete methods are slow. It should be noted that
this limit is reset then the device delete method is changed and
that it can only be lowered not increased from the device max.

Stop abusing xpt_periph in random plases that really have no periph related
to CCB, for example, bus scanning. NULL value is fine in such cases and it
is correctly logged in debug messages as "noperiph". If at some point we
need some real XPT periphs (alike to pmpX now), quite likely they will be
per-bus, and not a single global instance as xpt_periph now.

Remove multilevel freezing mechanism, implemented to handle specifics of

allocated when queues are already full of payload requests. Instead of
removing frozen CCBs with specified range of priorities from the queue
to provide free openings, use simple hack, allowing explicit CCBs over-
allocation for requests with priority higher (numerically lower) then
CAM_PRIORITY_OOB threshold.
Simplify CCB allocation logic by removing SIM-level allocation queue.
After that SIM-level queue manages only CCBs execution, while allocation
logic is localized within each single device.
