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 */

This patch converts gdrom to use __blk_end_request() directly
so that end_{queued|dequeued}_request() can be removed.
gd.transfer is '1' in error cases and '0' in non-error cases,
so gdrom hasn't been propagating any error code to the block layer.
We can just convert error cases to '-EIO'.

This patch introduces struct rq_map_data to enable bio_copy_use_iov()
use reserved pages.
Currently, bio_copy_user_iov allocates bounce pages but
drivers/scsi/sg.c wants to allocate pages by itself and use
them. struct rq_map_data can be used to pass allocated pages to
bio_copy_user_iov.
The current users of bio_copy_user_iov simply passes NULL (they don't
want to use pre-allocated pages).

This patch should fix TOC handling for cdroms that can not play audio. It
extends commit af744e3294d09d706c4eae26cffaaa68a8d40337 ("cdrom: don't
check CDC_PLAY_AUDIO in cdrom_count_tracks()") with a safety check and
non-audio ioctls support.
Since CDC_PLAY_AUDIO flag was used not only to check ability to play audio
but also to ensure that audio_ioctl was not NULL, all TOC-related
operations had to use it.
As far as I understand, now audio_ioctl is never NULL, so a sanity check
during device registration should be sufficient.
It was tested on Optiarc AD7203A device, that has no ability to play
audio.

According to MMC-3 (or any later versions) READ TOCs are mandatory
commands and have nothing to do with CDC_PLAY_AUDIO. I have no idea why
the check was put there in the first place but it now only breaks
automatic actions on certain drives.
Note that this test was only effective when ide-cdrom was being used
as sr didn't mask CDC_PLAY_AUDIO according to the capabilities.

buffers on stack)
The commit 22a9189fd073db3d03a4cf8b8c098aa207602de1 (cdrom: use
kmalloced buffers instead of buffers on stack) is introduced to use
kmalloced buffers for packet commands to avoid stack corruption on non
coherent platforms.
SCSI cdrom uses blk_rq_map_kern, which properly avoids DMA on the
stack by using the bounce buffers. IDE cdrom also has the mechnism to
avoids DMA on the stack. So we don't need this extra complexitiy in
cdrom.c, such as allocating just 8 bytes. The lower layers can handle
it.

blk_get_request initializes rq->cmd (rq_init does) so the users don't
need to do that.
The purpose of this patch is to remove sizeof(rq->cmd) and &rq->cmd,
as a preparation for large command support, which changes rq->cmd from
the static array to a pointer. sizeof(rq->cmd) will not make sense and
&rq->cmd won't work.

If cdrom commands are issued to a scsi drive in most cases the buffer will be
filled via dma. This leads to bad stack corruption on non coherent platforms,
because the buffers are neither cache line aligned nor is the size a multiple
of the cache line size. Using kmalloced buffers avoids this.

This patch adds support for the GD-Rom drive, SEGA's proprietary
implementation of an IDE CD Rom for the SEGA Dreamcast. This driver
implements Sega's Packet Interface (SPI) - at least partially. It will
also read disks in SEGA's propreitary GD format.
Unlike previous drivers (which were never in mainline) this uses DMA and
not PIO to read disks. It is a new driver, not a refactoring of old
drivers.

The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in
the kernel.
The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

bsg uses scsi_cmd_ioctl() for some SCSI/sg ioctl
commands. scsi_cmd_ioctl() gets a request queue from a gendisk
arguement. This prevents bsg being bound to SCSI devices that don't
have a gendisk (like OSD). This adds a request_queue argument to
scsi_cmd_ioctl(). The SCSI/sg ioctl commands doesn't use a gendisk so
it's safe for any SCSI devices to use scsi_cmd_ioctl().

Fix soft lockup with iSeries viocd driver, caused by eventually calling
end_that_request_first() with nr_bytes 0.
Some versions of hald do an SG_IO ioctl on the viocd device which becomes a
request with hard_nr_sectors and hard_cur_sectors set to zero. Passing zero
as the number of sectors to end_request() (which calls
end_that_request_first()) causes an infinite loop when the bio is being freed.
This patch makes sure that the zero is never passed. It only requires some
number larger the the request size the terminate the loop.
The lockup is triggered by hald, interrogating the device.
