Some USB devices crash when we send them an inquiry with the EVPD bit
set, regardless of page requested (i.e. including page 0).
We only need the extended inquiry to gain access to VPD pages 0xB0 and
0xB1. These appeared in SBC2 and SBC3 respectively, so we can restrict
sending the extended inquiry to devices reporting SPC3 or higher.
This fixes bugzilla.kernel.org #13657.

If a SCSI ULD driver sets blk_queue_prep_rq(), it should clean it
up itself on remove(), and not from the bus callbacks. This
removes the need to hook into bus->remove(), which should not
be used at the same time as driver->remove().

The async split up of probing in sd.c created a potential failure case where
something goes wrong with device_add(), but which we don't recover properly.
Since, in general, asynchronous error handling is hard, move the device_add()

Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case. The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes. Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.
This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.

We have a problem with recovered error handling in that any command
which goes down as BLOCK_PC but which returns a sense code of RECOVERED
ERROR gets completed with -EIO. For actual SG_IO commands, this doesn't
matter at all, since the error return code gets dropped in favour of
req->errors which contain the SCSI completion code.
However, if this command is part of the block system, then it will pay
attention to the returned error code. In particularly if a SYNCHRONIZE
CACHE from a barrier command completes with RECOVERED ERROR, the
resulting -EIO on the barrier causes block to error the request and
return it to the filesystem. Fix this by converting the -EIO for
recovered error to zero, plus remove the printing of this from sd and sr
so the message isn't double printed.

New features are being added to the READ CAPACITY 16 results, so we
want to issue it in preference to READ CAPACITY 10. Unfortunately, some
devices misbehave when they see a READ CAPACITY 16, so we restrict this
command to devices which claim conformance to SPC-3 (aka SBC-2), or claim
they have features which are only reported in the READ CAPACITY 16 data.
The READ CAPACITY 16 command is optional, even for SBC-2 devices, so
we fall back to READ CAPACITY 10 if READ CAPACITY 16 fails.

SELECT, but I doubt one is needed.)

The current handling of NO_SENSE check condition is the same as
RECOVERED_ERROR, and assumes that in both cases, the I/O was fully
transferred.
We have seen cases of arrays returning with NO_SENSE (no error), but
the I/O was not completely transferred, thus residual set. Thus,
rather than return good_bytes as the entire transfer, set good_bytes
to 0, so that the midlayer then applies the residual in calculating
the transfer, and for sd, will fail the I/O and fall into a retry
path.

To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers;
to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following:
1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct
prototypes, make (few) callers handle both. That's this changeset.
2) for each driver convert to new methods. *ALL* drivers
are converted in this series.
3) kill the old (renamed) methods.
Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the
end of this series no trace of old methods remain. The only reason why
we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver
debugging if anything goes wrong.

release(disk, mode)

The last_sector_bug flag was added to work around a bug in certain usb
cardreaders, where they would crash if a multiple sector read included the
last sector. The original implementation avoids this by e.g. splitting an 8
sector read which includes the last sector into a 7 sector read, and a single
sector read for the last sector. The flag is enabled for all USB devices.
This revealed a second bug in other usb cardreaders, which crash when they
get a multiple sector read which stops 1 sector short of the last sector.
Affected hardware includes the Kingston "MobileLite" external USB cardreader
and the internal USB cardreader on the Asus EeePC.
Extend the last_sector_bug workaround to ensure that any access which touches
the last 8 hardware sectors of the device is a single sector long. Requests
are shrunk as necessary to meet this constraint.
This gives us a safety margin against potential unknown or future bugs
affecting multi-sector access to the end of the device. The two known bugs
only affect the last 2 sectors. However, they suggest that these devices
are prone to fencepost errors and that multi-sector access to the end of the
device is not well tested. Popular OS's use multi-sector accesses, but they
rarely read the last few sectors. Linux (with udev & vol_id) automatically
reads sectors from the end of the device on insertion. It is assumed that
single sector accesses are more thoroughly tested during development.
