Before mainline commit ea5693cc (v2.6.29-rc1), empty nested netlink attributes
were not allowed. Fix that by leaving out nested attributes if they are empty
and by allowing the top-level attributes to be missing.

drbd: Make drbd's use of netlink attribute flags less confusing
Make it more clear in the flag names which flags are internal to drbd, and
which are not.
The check for mandatory attributes is the only extension visible at the netlink
layer. Attributes with this flag set would look like unknown attributes to
some kernel versions. The netlink layer would ignore them and also skip
consistency checks on the attribute type and legth. To avoid this, we check
for mandatory attributes first, remove the mandatory flag, and then process the
attributes normally.

drbd: skip spurious wait_event in drbd_al_begin_io
Activity log transaction writes are serialized on a bit lock.
If several CPUs race to write an AL transaction,
those that did not get the lock the first time
may continue as soon as there are no more pending transactions.
The do not need to all grab the lock in turn,
just to realize that the AL is clean already,
and they have nothing to do.
This also closes a potential deadlock with drbd_adm_disk_opts.
Once it got the AL bit lock, it knows there are no pending transactions,
the AL is clean, and it should be safe to wait for all element references
to drop to zero.

drbd: fix schedule in atomic
An administrative detach used to request a state change directly to D_DISKLESS,
first suspending IO to avoid the last put_ldev() occuring from an endio handler,
potentially in irq context.
This is not enough on the receiving side (typically secondary), we may miss
some peer_req on the way to local disk, which then may do the last put_ldev()
from their drbd_peer_request_endio().
This patch makes the detach always go through the intermediate D_FAILED state.
We may consider to rename it D_DETACHING.
Alternative approach would be to create yet an other work item to be scheduled
on the worker, do the destructor work from there, and get the timing right.

drbd: fix thread stop deadlock
There are races where the receiver may be exiting,
but still need the worker to process some stuff.
Do not wait for the receiver to die from an exiting worker.
The receiver must already be dead in case the worker decides to exit.
If the receiver was still alive, it may still want to queue work, and do
drbd_flush_workqueue() from it's disconnect cleanup code,
which would no longer be processed by an exiting worker.
This also would deadlock,
if the worker was to synchornously wait for the receiver to die.
Do not implicitly stop the worker.
The worker will only be stopped from configuration context, from
conn_reconfig_done(), drbd_adm_down() or drbd_adm_delete_connection(),
after making sure the receiver is already stopped.

The main purpose of this is to allow to turn data integrity checking on

Implemented by allocating tconn->peer_integrity_tfm only when receiving

worker context, and no further synchronization is necessary.
On the sender side, tconn->integrity_tfm is modified under
