Mike Snitzer 9571f829f3 dm table: fix dm_table_supports_poll to return false if no data devices 
It was reported that the "generic/250" test in xfstests (which uses
the dm-error target) demonstrates a regression where the kernel
crashes in bioset_exit().

Since commit cfc97abcbe ("dm: conditionally enable
BIOSET_PERCPU_CACHE for dm_io bioset") the bioset_init() for the dm_io
bioset will setup the bioset's per-cpu alloc cache if all devices have
QUEUE_FLAG_POLL set.

But there was an bug where a target that doesn't have any data devices
(and that doesn't even set the .iterate_devices dm target callback)
will incorrectly return true from dm_table_supports_poll().

Fix this by updating dm_table_supports_poll() to follow dm-table.c's
well-worn pattern for testing that _all_ targets in a DM table do in
fact have underlying devices that set QUEUE_FLAG_POLL.

NOTE: An additional block fix is still needed so that
bio_alloc_cache_destroy() clears the bioset's ->cache member.
Otherwise, a DM device's table reload that transitions the DM device's
bioset from using a per-cpu alloc cache to _not_ using one will result
in bioset_exit() crashing in bio_alloc_cache_destroy() because dm's
dm_io bioset ("io_bs") was left with a stale ->cache member.

Fixes: cfc97abcbe ("dm: conditionally enable BIOSET_PERCPU_CACHE for dm_io bioset")

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
