Hi,

This series adds llbitmap support for online reshape in RAID10 and RAID5.

llbitmap has a different set of constraints from the existing bitmap code:
there is one live bitmap instance, each bit state has richer semantics, and
reshape can change the mapping from logical array ranges to bitmap ranges.
The series therefore adds exact bitmap range mapping hooks, tracks old and
new llbitmap geometry during reshape, remaps checkpointed bits as reshape
progresses, and wires the reshape lifecycle into RAID10 and RAID5.

The main rules are:

1. split bios at the reshape position before bitmap accounting, so one bio
is never accounted with mixed old/new geometry;
2. do not skip reshape ranges from stale llbitmap state, because reshape
progress is checkpointed by array metadata;
3. remap llbitmap bits when reshape progress is checkpointed;
4. reject llbitmap reshape if mddev->chunk_sectors shrinks, because the
effective data range represented by existing bitmap bits can shrink.

The first patch fixes RAID5 bitmap stripe rounding before the exact mapping
hooks are added, so the later RAID5 helper split starts from correct
sector_t division semantics. The rest of the series prepares generic bitmap
and llbitmap infrastructure, wires RAID10, and then wires RAID5 with exact
old/new stripe mapping.

Changes since v2:
- Fix RAID5 bitmap stripe rounding for non-power-of-two stripe widths in
patch 1.
- Fix partial discard chunks being marked unwritten in patch 11.
- Fix RAID5 writes past component size being skipped by llbitmap accounting
in patch 11.
- Fix stopped reshape reassembly losing target llbitmap geometry in patch 9.
- Fix the page-cache-grow patch using target-geometry fields before they are
introduced in patch 7.

Changes since v1:
- Add Reviewed-by tags from Su Yue.
- Rename llbitmap_resize_chunks() to llbitmap_calculate_chunks().
- Use an unsigned index in llbitmap_expand_pages() error cleanup.
- Rebase on mdraid/md-7.2, including the mddev_bio_split_at_reshape_offset()
declaration needed by the RAID5 build reported by kernel test robot.
