/// A wrapper around a blk-mq [`struct request`]. This represents an IO request.
///
/// # Implementation details
///
/// There are four states for a request that the Rust bindings care about:
///
/// 1. Request is owned by block layer (refcount 0).
/// 2. Request is owned by driver but with zero [`ARef`]s in existence
///    (refcount 1).
/// 3. Request is owned by driver with exactly one [`ARef`] in existence
///    (refcount 2).
/// 4. Request is owned by driver with more than one [`ARef`] in existence
///    (refcount > 2).
///
///
/// We need to track 1 and 2 to ensure we fail tag to request conversions for
/// requests that are not owned by the driver.
///
/// We need to track 3 and 4 to ensure that it is safe to end the request and hand
/// back ownership to the block layer.
///
/// Note that the driver can still obtain new `ARef` even if there is no `ARef`s in existence by
/// using `tag_to_rq`, hence the need to distinguish B and C.
///
/// The states are tracked through the private `refcount` field of
/// `RequestDataWrapper`. This structure lives in the private data area of the C
/// [`struct request`].
///
/// # Invariants
///
/// * `self.0` is a valid [`struct request`] created by the C portion of the
///   kernel.
/// * The private data area associated with this request must be an initialized
///   and valid `RequestDataWrapper<T>`.
/// * `self` is reference counted by atomic modification of
///   `self.wrapper_ref().refcount()`.
