NB: nbd_ioctl() appears to be racy; BKL is held, but doesn't really
help, AFAICS. Left as-is for now, but it'll need fixing.

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.
New methods:
open(bdev, mode)
release(disk, mode)
ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) /* Called without BKL */
compat_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)
locked_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg) /* Called with BKL, legacy */

Analog of blkdev_driver_ioctl() with sane arguments. For
now uses fake struct file, by the end of the series it won't
and blkdev_driver_ioctl() will become a wrapper around it.

Tejun's commit 7b595756ec made sysfs
attribute->owner unnecessary. But the field was left in the structure to
ease the merge. It's been over a year since that change and it is now
time to start killing attribute->owner along with its users - one arch at
a time!
This patch is attempt #1 to get rid of attribute->owner only for
CONFIG_X86_64 or CONFIG_X86_32 . We will deal with other arches later on
as and when possible - avr32 will be the next since that is something I
can test. Compile (make allyesconfig / make allmodconfig / custom config)
and boot tested.
akpm: the idea is that we put the declaration of sttribute.owner inside
`#ifndef CONFIG_X86'. But that proved to be too ambitious for now because
new usages kept on turning up in subsystem trees.
[akpm: remove the ifdef for now]

Since all bio_split calls refer the same single bio_split_pool, the bio_split
function can use bio_split_pool directly instead of the mempool_t parameter;
then the mempool_t parameter can be removed from bio_split param list, and
bio_split_pool is only referred in fs/bio.c file, can be marked static.

The current floppy_struct allows floppies to number sectors starting
from 0 or 1. This patch allows arbitrary first-sector numbers - for
example, 0xC1 for Amstrad CPC disks.
This extends the existing 1-bit field (FD_ZEROBASED, bit 2 of stretch)
to 8 bits (FD_SECTMASK, bits 2 to 9).
Currently 0x00 denotes a first sector number of 1, and 0x01 denotes a
first sector number of 0. We extend this by interpreting FD_SECTMASK
as the first sector number with the LSB flipped.

Fix cciss SCSI rescan code to better notice device changes.
If you hot-unplug a tape drive, then hot-plug a different
tape drive into the same slot in a storage enclosure,
the cciss driver wouldn't notice anything had changed, as
it was only looking at the LUN address and device type.
Now it looks at the inquiry page 0x83 device identifier,
and vendor and model strings as well.

Until recently, the maximum number of xvd block devices you could attach
to a Xen domU was 16. This limitation turned out to be problematic for
some users, so it was expanded to handle a much larger number of disks.
However, this requires a couple of changes in the way that blkfront
scans for disks. This functionality is already present in the Xen
linux-2.6.18-xen.hg tree; the attached patch adds this functionality to
the mainline xen-blkfront implementation. I successfully tested it on a
2.6.25 tree, and build tested it on 2.6.27-rc3.
