blkbk->pending_pages can be NULL here so I added a check for it.

[v1: Redid the loop a bit]

The sector number on empty barrier requests may (will?) be -1, which,
given that it's being treated as unsigned 64-bit quantity, will almost
always exceed the actual (virtual) disk's size.
Inspired by Konrad's "When writting barriers set the sector number to
zero...".
While at it also add overflow checking to the math in vbd_translate().

vbd_resize() up_read()'s xs_state.suspend_mutex twice in a row via double
xenbus_transaction_end() calls. The next down_read() in
xenbus_transaction_start() (at eg. the next resize attempt) hangs.

We do a check for the operations right before calling dispatch_rw_block_io.
And then we do the same check in dispatch_rw_block_io. This patch
squashes those checks into the 'dispatch_rw_block_io' function.

We drop the support for 'feature-barrier' and add in the support
for the 'feature-flush-cache' if the real backend storage supports
flushing.

If one runs a simple fio request with random read/write with a
20%/80% ratio, the numbers are incredibly bad when using the CFQ scheduler.

64K, randrw | NOOP | CFQ | deadline |
randrwmix=80 | | | |

The problem as explained by Vivek Goyal was:
".. that difference is that sync vs async requests. In the case of
a kernel thread submitting IO, [..] all the WRITES might be being
considered as async and will go in a different queue. If you mix those
with some READS, they are always sync and will go in differnet queue.
In presence of sync queue, CFQ will idle and choke up WRITES in
an attempt to improve latencies of READs.
In case of AIO [note: this is what QEMU qdisk is doing] , [..]
it is direct IO and both READS and WRITES will be considered SYNC
and will go in a single queue and no choking of WRITES will take place."
The solution is quite simple, tack on REQ_SYNC (which is
what the WRITE_ODIRECT macro points to) and the numbers go
back up.

We used to the plug/unplug on the submit_bio. But that means
if within a stream of WRITE, WRITE, WRITE,...,WRITE we have
one READ, it could stall the pipeline (as the 'submio_bio'
could trigger the unplug_fnc to be called and stall/sync
when doing the READ). Instead we want to move the unplugging
when the whole (or as a much as possible) ring buffer has been
processed. This also eliminates us doing plug/unplug for
each request.

And also shorten the name if it has blkback to blkbk.
This results in the symbol table (if compiled in the kernel)
to be much shorter, prettier, and also easier to search for.

Daniel Stodden suggested to eliminate vbd.c and interface.c, inlining the
critical bits where they belong, respectively.
Leaving only blkback.c for the data- and xenbus.c for the control path.
