Most of the HDIO ioctls are only used by the obsolete drivers/ide
subsystem, these can be handled by changing ide_cmd_ioctl() to be aware
of compat mode and doing the correct transformations in place and using
it as both native and compat handlers for all drivers.The SCSI drivers implementing the same commands are already doing
this in the drivers, so the compat_blkdev_driver_ioctl() function
is no longer needed now.The BLKSECTSET and HDIO_GETGEO_BIG ioctls are not implemented
in any driver any more and no longer need any conversion.Reviewed-by: Ben Hutchings

MTIOCPOS and MTIOCGET are incompatible between 32-bit and 64-bit user
space, and traditionally have been translated in fs/compat_ioctl.c.To get rid of that translation handler, move a corresponding
implementation into each of the four drivers implementing those commands.The interesting part of that is now in a new linux/mtio.h header that
wraps the existing uapi/linux/mtio.h header and provides an abstraction
to let drivers handle both cases easily. Using an in_compat_syscall()
check, the caller does not have to keep track of whether this was
called through .unlocked_ioctl() or .compat_ioctl().Acked-by: Heiko Carstens

Instead of explicitly calling scsi_req_init() after blk_get_request(),
call that function from inside blk_get_request(). Add an
.initialize_rq_fn() callback function to the block drivers that need
it. Merge the IDE .init_rq_fn() function into .initialize_rq_fn()
because it is too small to keep it as a separate function. Keep the
scsi_req_init() call in ide_prep_sense() because it follows a
blk_rq_init() call.References: commit 82ed4db499b8 ("block: split scsi_request out of struct request")

Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings. This patch
instead introduces a new blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
status codes and explicitly explains their meaning. Helpers to convert from
and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
fruite to improve it.blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it
all into the operations. The little caveat here is that previously
cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op
fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough
operations.Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver
private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we
can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep. Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep. The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake. As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags. This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build]

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.===== begin semantic patch =====

The open and release block_device_operations are currently
called with the BKL held. In order to change that, we must
first make sure that all drivers that currently rely
on this have no regressions.This blindly pushes the BKL into all .open and .release
operations for all block drivers to prepare for the
next step. The drivers can subsequently replace the BKL
with their own locks or remove it completely when it can
be shown that it is not needed.The functions blkdev_get and blkdev_put are the only
remaining users of the big kernel lock in the block
layer, besides a few uses in the ioctl code, none
of which need to serialize with blkdev_{get,put}.Most of these two functions is also under the protection
of bdev->bd_mutex, including the actual calls to
->open and ->release, and the common code does not
access any global data structures that need the BKL.Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann
