From: Tal Zussman <[email protected]> Some bio completion handlers need to run from preemptible task context, but bio_endio() may be called from IRQ context (e.g., buffer_head writeback). Callers need a way to ensure their callback eventually runs from a sleepable context. Add infrastructure for that, in two forms: 1. BIO_COMPLETE_IN_TASK, a bio flag the submitter sets when it knows in advance that its callback needs task context (e.g., dropbehind writeback). bio_endio() sees the flag and offloads completion to a worker automatically. 2. bio_complete_in_task(), a helper that completion callbacks can invoke from within bi_end_io() when the deferral decision is dynamic (e.g., fserror reporting). Both share a per-CPU batch list drained by a delayed work item on a WQ_PERCPU workqueue. Producers push the bio onto the local CPU's batch and schedule the work item, which then dispatches each bio's bi_end_io() from task context. The delayed work item uses a 1-jiffie delay to allow batches of completions to accumulate before processing. Both methods are gated on bio_in_atomic(), which returns true in any context where a sleeping bi_end_io() is unsafe, including non-preemptible task context. This logic is copied from commit c99fab6e80b7 ("erofs: fix atomic context detection when !CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC"). Two CPU hotplug callbacks are used to drain remaining bios from the departing CPU's batch, while maintaining the per-CPU behavior. The CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN callback disables the per-CPU delayed work while the CPU is still online, preventing it from running on an unbound worker later. CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN then drains any bios added between disabling the work item and CPU offline.
