      change SCSI Maintainer email · 0351b8f8
      James Bottomley 提交于
      We've recently suffered a rebranding and the Service Provider half of
      Parallels has become Odin.  This means my email has changed so update
      the MAINTAINERS file (and tidy up the pointers to our git trees to be
      correct).

      sd, mmc, virtio_blk, string_helpers: fix block size units · b9f28d86
      James Bottomley 提交于
      The current string_get_size() overflows when the device size goes over
      2^64 bytes because the string helper routine computes the suffix from
      the size in bytes.  However, the entirety of Linux thinks in terms of
      blocks, not bytes, so this will artificially induce an overflow on very
      large devices.  Fix this by making the function string_get_size() take
      blocks and the block size instead of bytes.  This should allow us to
      keep working until the current SCSI standard overflows.
      
      Also fix virtio_blk and mmc (both of which were also artificially
      multiplying by the block size to pass a byte side to string_get_size()).
      
      The mathematics of this is pretty simple:  we're taking a product of
      size in blocks (S) and block size (B) and trying to re-express this in
      exponential form: S*B = R*N^E (where N, the exponent is either 1000 or
      1024) and R < N.  Mathematically, S = RS*N^ES and B=RB*N^EB, so if RS*RB
      < N it's easy to see that S*B = RS*RB*N^(ES+EB).  However, if RS*BS > N,
      we can see that this can be re-expressed as RS*BS = R*N (where R =
      RS*BS/N < N) so the whole exponent becomes R*N^(ES+EB+1)
