This rename rq_init() blk_rq_init() and export it. Any path that hands
the request to the block layer needs to call it to initialize the
request.
This is a preparation for large command support, which needs to
initialize the request in a proper way (that is, just doing a memset()
will not work).

We can save some atomic ops in the IO path, if we clearly define
the rules of how to modify the queue flags.

This requires moving rq_init() from get_request() to blk_alloc_request().
The upside is that we can now require an rq_init() from any path that
wishes to hand the request to the block layer.
rq_init() will be exported for the code that uses struct request
without blk_get_request.
This is a preparation for large command support, which needs to
initialize struct request in a proper way (that is, just doing a
memset() will not work).

The meaning of rq->data_len was changed to the length of an allocated
buffer from the true data length. It breaks SG_IO friends and
bsg. This patch restores the meaning of rq->data_len to the true data
length and adds rq->extra_len to store an extended length (due to
drain buffer and padding).
This patch also removes the code to update bio in blk_rq_map_user
introduced by the commit 40b01b9bbd.
The commit adjusts bio according to memory alignment
(queue_dma_alignment). However, memory alignment is NOT padding
alignment. This adjustment also breaks SG_IO friends and bsg. Padding
alignment needs to be fixed in a proper way (by a separate patch).

With padding and draining moved into it, block layer now may extend
requests as directed by queue parameters, so now a request has two
sizes - the original request size and the extended size which matches
the size of area pointed to by bios and later by sgs. The latter size
is what lower layers are primarily interested in when allocating,
filling up DMA tables and setting up the controller.
Both padding and draining extend the data area to accomodate
controller characteristics. As any controller which speaks SCSI can
handle underflows, feeding larger data area is safe.
So, this patch makes the primary data length field, request->data_len,
indicate the size of full data area and add a separate length field,
request->raw_data_len, for the unmodified request size. The latter is
used to report to higher layer (userland) and where the original
request size should be fed to the controller or device.

Rearrange fields in cache order and initialize some fields that
we didn't previously init. Remove init of ->completion_data, it's
part of a union with ->hash. Luckily clearing the rb node is the same
as setting it to null!
