bcache: move uapi header bcache.h to bcache code directory

The header file include/uapi/linux/bcache.h is not really a user space
API heaer. This file defines the ondisk format of bcache internal meta
data but no one includes it from user space, bcache-tools has its own
copy of this header with minor modification.

Therefore, this patch moves include/uapi/linux/bcache.h to bcache code
directory as drivers/md/bcache/bcache_ondisk.h.

bcache: introduce BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LOG_LARGE_BUCKET_SIZE for large bucket

When large bucket feature was added, BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LARGE_BUCKET
was introduced into the incompat feature set. It used bucket_size_hi
(which was added at the tail of struct cache_sb_disk) to extend current
16bit bucket size to 32bit with existing bucket_size in struct
cache_sb_disk.

This is not a good idea, there are two obvious problems,
- Bucket size is always value power of 2, if store log2(bucket size) in
existing bucket_size of struct cache_sb_disk, it is unnecessary to add
bucket_size_hi.
- Macro csum_set() assumes d[SB_JOURNAL_BUCKETS] is the last member in
struct cache_sb_disk, bucket_size_hi was added after d[] which makes
csum_set calculate an unexpected super block checksum.

To fix the above problems, this patch introduces a new incompat feature
bit BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LOG_LARGE_BUCKET_SIZE, when this bit is set, it
means bucket_size in struct cache_sb_disk stores the order of power-of-2
bucket size value. When user specifies a bucket size larger than 32768
sectors, BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LOG_LARGE_BUCKET_SIZE will be set to
incompat feature set, and bucket_size stores log2(bucket size) more
than store the real bucket size value.

The obsoleted BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LARGE_BUCKET won't be used anymore,
it is renamed to BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_OBSO_LARGE_BUCKET and still only
recognized by kernel driver for legacy compatible purpose. The previous
bucket_size_hi is renmaed to obso_bucket_size_hi in struct cache_sb_disk
and not used in bcache-tools anymore.

For cache device created with BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LARGE_BUCKET feature,
bcache-tools and kernel driver still recognize the feature string and
display it as "obso_large_bucket".

With this change, the unnecessary extra space extend of bcache on-disk
super block can be avoided, and csum_set() may generate expected check
sum as well.

bcache: remove embedded struct cache_sb from struct cache_set

Since bcache code was merged into mainline kerrnel, each cache set only
as one single cache in it. The multiple caches framework is here but the
code is far from completed. Considering the multiple copies of cached
data can also be stored on e.g. md raid1 devices, it is unnecessary to
support multiple caches in one cache set indeed.

The previous preparation patches fix the dependencies of explicitly
making a cache set only have single cache. Now we don't have to maintain
an embedded partial super block in struct cache_set, the in-memory super
block can be directly referenced from struct cache.

This patch removes the embedded struct cache_sb from struct cache_set,
and fixes all locations where the superb lock was referenced from this
removed super block by referencing the in-memory super block of struct
cache.

bcache: add sysfs file to display feature sets information of cache set

The following three sysfs files are created to display according feature
set information of bcache:
/sys/fs/bcache/<cache set UUID>/internal/feature_compat
/sys/fs/bcache/<cache set UUID>/internal/feature_ro_compat
/sys/fs/bcache/<cache set UUID>/internal/feature_incompat
is added by this patch, to display feature sets information of the cache
set.

Now only an incompat feature 'large_bucket' added in bcache, the sysfs
file content is:
[large_bucket]
string large_bucket means the running bcache drive supports incompat
feature 'large_bucket', the wrapping [] means the 'large_bucket' feature
is currently enabled on this cache set.

This patch is ready to display compat and ro_compat features, in future
once bcache code implements such feature sets, the according feature
strings will be displayed in their sysfs files too.

bcache: add bucket_size_hi into struct cache_sb_disk for large bucket

The large bucket feature is to extend bucket_size from 16bit to 32bit.

When create cache device on zoned device (e.g. zoned NVMe SSD), making
a single bucket cover one or more zones of the zoned device is the
simplest way to support zoned device as cache by bcache.

But current maximum bucket size is 16MB and a typical zone size of zoned
device is 256MB, this is the major motiviation to extend bucket size to
a larger bit width.

This patch is the basic and first change to support large bucket size,
the major changes it makes are,
- Add BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_LARGE_BUCKET for the large bucket feature,
INCOMPAT means it introduces incompatible on-disk format change.
- Add BCH_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_FUNCS(large_bucket, LARGE_BUCKET) routines.
- Adds __le16 bucket_size_hi into struct cache_sb_disk at offset 0x8d0
for the on-disk super block format.
- For the in-memory super block struct cache_sb, member bucket_size is
extended from __u16 to __32.
- Add get_bucket_size() to combine the bucket_size and bucket_size_hi
from struct cache_sb_disk into an unsigned int value.

Since we already have large bucket size helpers meta_bucket_pages(),
meta_bucket_bytes() and alloc_meta_bucket_pages(), they make sure when
bucket size > 8MB, the memory allocation for bcache meta data bucket
won't fail no matter how large the bucket size extended. So these meta
data buckets are handled properly when the bucket size width increase
from 16bit to 32bit, we don't need to worry about them.
