dm-bufio: fix no-sleep mode
dm-bufio has a no-sleep mode. When activated (with the
DM_BUFIO_CLIENT_NO_SLEEP flag), the bufio client is read-only and we
could call dm_bufio_get from tasklets. This is used by dm-verity.
Unfortunately, commit 450e8dee51aa ("dm bufio: improve concurrent IO
performance") broke this and the kernel would warn that cache_get()
was calling down_read() from no-sleeping context. The bug can be
reproduced by using "veritysetup open" with the "--use-tasklets"
flag.
This commit fixes dm-bufio, so that the tasklet mode works again, by
expanding use of the 'no_sleep_enabled' static_key to conditionally
use either a rw_semaphore or rwlock_t (which are colocated in the
buffer_tree structure using a union).
