Sanitize some s390 Kconfig options. We have ARCH_S390, ARCH_S390X,
ARCH_S390_31, 64BIT, S390_SUPPORT and COMPAT. Replace these 6 options by
S390, 64BIT and COMPAT.Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

Block devices need to add the block device name to the symlink they put
in the device directory, otherwise multiple symlinks of the same name
can be created. This matches the class system, which works the same
way, we just forgot to convert block at the same time.Cc: Pete Zaitcev

Leave the overloaded "hotplug" word to susbsystems which are handling
real devices. The driver core does not "plug" anything, it just exports
the state to userspace and generates events.Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers

Introduce a Kconfig symbol SPARC that is defined on both the sparc and
sparc64 architectures.This symbol makes some dependencies more readable.

Instead of having ->read_sectors and ->write_sectors, combine the two
into ->sectors[2] and similar for the other fields. This saves a branch
several places in the io path, since we don't have to care for what the
actual io direction is. On my x86-64 box, that's 200 bytes less text in
just the core (not counting the various drivers).Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

A "coldplug + udevstart" can be simple like this:
for i in /sys/block/*/*/uevent; do echo 1 > $i; done
for i in /sys/class/*/*/uevent; do echo 1 > $i; done
for i in /sys/bus/*/devices/*/uevent; do echo 1 > $i; doneSigned-off-by: Kay Sievers

struct gendisk has these two fields: stamp, stamp_idle. Update to
stamp_idle is always in sync with stamp and they are always the same.
Therefore, it does not add any value in having two fields tracking
same timestamp. Suggest to remove it.Also, we should only update gendisk stats with non-zero value.
Advantage is that we don't have to needlessly calculate memory address,
and then add zero to the content.Signed-off-by: Ken Chen

This change from March 3rd causes the partition parsing code to ignore
partitions which have a signature byte of zero. Turns out that more people
have such partitions than we expected, and their device numbering is coming up
wrong in post-2.6.11 kernels.So revert the change while we think about the problem a bit more.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.Let it rip!
