dm: optimize flushes

Device mapper sends flush bios to all the targets and the targets send it
to the underlying device. That may be inefficient, for example if a table
contains 10 linear targets pointing to the same physical device, then
device mapper would send 10 flush bios to that device - despite the fact
that only one bio would be sufficient.

This commit optimizes the flush behavior. It introduces a per-target
variable flush_bypasses_map - it is set when the target supports flush
optimization - currently, the dm-linear and dm-stripe targets support it.
When all the targets in a table have flush_bypasses_map,
flush_bypasses_map on the table is set. __send_empty_flush tests if the
table has flush_bypasses_map - and if it has, no flush bios are sent to
the targets via the "map" method and the list dm_table->devices is
iterated and the flush bios are sent to each member of the list.

dax: add .recovery_write dax_operation

Introduce dax_recovery_write() operation. The function is used to
recover a dax range that contains poison. Typical use case is when
a user process receives a SIGBUS with si_code BUS_MCEERR_AR
indicating poison(s) in a dax range, in response, the user process
issues a pwrite() to the page-aligned dax range, thus clears the
poison and puts valid data in the range.

dm: update target status functions to support IMA measurement

For device mapper targets to take advantage of IMA's measurement
capabilities, the status functions for the individual targets need to be
updated to handle the status_type_t case for value STATUSTYPE_IMA.

Update status functions for the following target types, to log their
respective attributes to be measured using IMA.
01. cache
02. crypt
03. integrity
04. linear
05. mirror
06. multipath
07. raid
08. snapshot
09. striped
10. verity

For rest of the targets, handle the STATUSTYPE_IMA case by setting the
measurement buffer to NULL.

For IMA to measure the data on a given system, the IMA policy on the
system needs to be updated to have the following line, and the system
needs to be restarted for the measurements to take effect.

/etc/ima/ima-policy
measure func=CRITICAL_DATA label=device-mapper template=ima-buf

The measurements will be reflected in the IMA logs, which are located at:

/sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/ascii_runtime_measurements
/sys/kernel/security/integrity/ima/binary_runtime_measurements

These IMA logs can later be consumed by various attestation clients
running on the system, and send them to external services for attesting
the system.

The DM target data measured by IMA subsystem can alternatively
be queried from userspace by setting DM_IMA_MEASUREMENT_FLAG with
DM_TABLE_STATUS_CMD.

dm: Check for device sector overflow if CONFIG_LBDAF is not set

Reference to a device in device-mapper table contains offset in sectors.

If the sector_t is 32bit integer (CONFIG_LBDAF is not set), then
several device-mapper targets can overflow this offset and validity
check is then performed on a wrong offset and a wrong table is activated.

See for example (on 32bit without CONFIG_LBDAF) this overflow:

# dmsetup create test --table "0 2048 linear /dev/sdg 4294967297"
# dmsetup table test
0 2048 linear 8:96 1

This patch adds explicit check for overflow if the offset is sector_t type.
