ubd_ioctl() doesn't need BKL, so unlocked_ioctl() it becomes...
Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

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 */

Tidy kern_util.h.  It turns out that most of the function declarations
aren't used, so they can go away.  os.h no longer includes
kern_util.h, so files which got it through os.h now need to include it
directly.  A number of other files never needed it, so these includes
are deleted.

The structure which was used to pass signal handlers from the kernel
side to the userspace side is gone.  Instead, the handlers are
declared here, and used directly from libc code.  This allows
arch/um/os-Linux/trap.c to be deleted, with its remnants being moved
to arch/um/os-Linux/skas/trap.c.

The previous patch which limited the number of sectors in a single request
to a COWed device was correct in concept, but the limit was implemented in
the wrong place.

By putting it in ubd_add, it covered the cases where the COWing was
specified on the command line.  However, when the command line only has the
COW file specified, the fact that it's a COW file isn't known until it's
opened, so the limit is missed in these cases.

This patch moves the sector limit from ubd_add to ubd_open_dev.

It is theoretically possible for a request to finish and be freed between
writing it to the I/O thread and updating the sector count.  In this case, the
update will dereference a freed pointer.

To avoid this, I delay the update until processing the next sg segment, when
the request pointer is known to be good.

Instead of writing entire structures between UML and the I/O thread, we send
pointers.  This cuts down on the amount of data being copied and possibly
allows more requests to be pending between the two.

This requires that the requests be kmalloced and freed instead of living on
the stack.

Send as many I/O requests to the I/O thread as possible, even though it will
still only handle one at a time.  This provides an opportunity to reduce
latency by starting one request before the previous one has been finished in
the driver.

Request handling is somewhat modernized by requesting sg pieces of a request
and handling them separately, finishing off the entire request after all the
pieces are done.

When a request queue stalls, normally because its pipe to the I/O thread is
full, it is put on the restart list.  This list is processed by starting up
the queues on it whenever there is some indication that progress might be
possible again.  Currently, this happens in the driver interrupt routine.
Some requests have been finished, so there is likely to be room in the pipe
again.

This almost doubles throughput when copying data between devices, but made no
noticable difference on anything else I tried.

This patch starts the removal of a very old, very broken piece of code.  This
stems from the problem of passing a userspace buffer into read() or write() on
the host.  If that buffer had not yet been faulted in, read and write will
return -EFAULT.

To avoid this problem, the solution was to fault the buffer in before the
system call by touching the pages that hold the buffer by doing a copy-user of
a byte to each page.  This is obviously bogus, but it does usually work, in tt
mode, since the kernel and process are in the same address space and userspace
addresses can be accessed directly in the kernel.

In skas mode, where the kernel and process are in separate address spaces, it
is completely bogus because the userspace address, which is invalid in the
kernel, is passed into the system call instead of the corresponding physical
address, which would be valid.  Here, it appears that this code, on every host
read() or write(), tries to fault in a random process page.  This doesn't seem
to cause any correctness problems, but there is a performance impact.  This
patch, and the ones following, result in a 10-15% performance gain on a kernel
build.

This code can't be immediately tossed out because when it is, you can't log
in.  Apparently, there is some code in the console driver which depends on
this somehow.

However, we can start removing it by switching the code which does I/O using
kernel addresses to using plain read() and write().  This patch introduces
os_read_file_k and os_write_file_k for use with kernel buffers and converts
all call locations which use obvious kernel buffers to use them.  These
include I/O using buffers which are local variables which are on the stack or
kmalloc-ed.  Later patches will handle the less obvious cases, followed by a
mass conversion back to the original interface.

If a disk fails to open, i.e.  its host file doesn't exist, it won't be
removable because the hot-unplug code checks the existence of its gendisk.
This won't exist because it is only allocated for successfully opened disks.
Thus, a typo on the command line can result in a unusable and unfixable disk.

This is fixed by freeing the gendisk if it's there, but not letting that
affect the removal.

Commit 62f96cb0 introduced per-devices
queues and locks, which was fine as far as it went, but left in place a
global which controlled access to submitting requests to the host.  This
should have been made per-device as well, since it causes I/O hangs when
multiple block devices are in use.

This patch fixes that by replacing the global with an activity flag in the
device structure in order to tell whether the queue is currently being run.

	There was no way to get a request struct (and queue) from the

I noticed that errors happening while hotplugging devices from the host were
never returned back to the mconsole client.  In some cases, success was
returned instead of even an information-free error.

This patch cleans that up by having the low-level configuration code pass back
an error string along with an error code.  At the top level, which knows
whether it is early boot time or responding to an mconsole request, the string
is printk'd or returned to the mconsole client.
