Commit 2a48fc0a ("block: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private

operations.  Since then, I've been been seeing these lock ups:

Instrumenting the nbd module's ioctl handler with some extra logging
clearly shows the NBD_DO_IT ioctl being invoked which is a long-lived
ioctl in the sense that it doesn't return until another ioctl asks the
driver to disconnect.  However, that other ioctl blocks, waiting for the
module-level mutex that replaced the BKL, and then we're stuck.

This patch removes the module-level mutex altogether.  It's clearly
wrong, and as far as I can see, it's entirely unnecessary, since the nbd
driver maintains per-device mutexes, and I don't see anything that would
require a module-level (or kernel-level, for that matter) mutex.

This should fix a performance degradation we observed recently.

If we don't expect any subheader, we should not call into the tcp stack,
as that may add considerable latency if there is no data available at
this point.

For a synthetic synchronous write load with single outstanding writes,
this additional latency when processing the "unplug remote" packet
added up to a performance degradation factor >= 10.

Move the mid-layer's ->queuecommand() invocation from being locked
with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.

The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
equivalent transformation.  No locking or other behavior should change
with this patch.  All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.

Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
	struct Scsi_Host *
and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
	void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)

Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd->scsi_done.

Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change.  Most drivers
needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

After recent blkdev_get() modifications, open_by_devnum() and
open_bdev_exclusive() are simple wrappers around blkdev_get().
Replace them with blkdev_get_by_dev() and blkdev_get_by_path().

blkdev_get_by_dev() is identical to open_by_devnum().
blkdev_get_by_path() is slightly different in that it doesn't
automatically add %FMODE_EXCL to @mode.

All users are converted.  Most conversions are mechanical and don't
introduce any behavior difference.  There are several exceptions.

* btrfs now sets FMODE_EXCL in btrfs_device->mode, so there's no
  reason to OR it explicitly on blkdev_put().

* gfs2, nilfs2 and the generic mount_bdev() now set FMODE_EXCL in
  sb->s_mode.

* With the above changes, sb->s_mode now always should contain
  FMODE_EXCL.  WARN_ON_ONCE() added to kill_block_super() to detect
  errors.

The new blkdev_get_*() functions are with proper docbook comments.
While at it, add function description to blkdev_get() too.

Over time, block layer has accumulated a set of APIs dealing with bdev
open, close, claim and release.

* blkdev_get/put() are the primary open and close functions.

* bd_claim/release() deal with exclusive open.

* open/close_bdev_exclusive() are combination of open and claim and
  the other way around, respectively.

* bd_link/unlink_disk_holder() to create and remove holder/slave
  symlinks.

* open_by_devnum() wraps bdget() + blkdev_get().

The interface is a bit confusing and the decoupling of open and claim
makes it impossible to properly guarantee exclusive access as
in-kernel open + claim sequence can disturb the existing exclusive
open even before the block layer knows the current open if for another
exclusive access.  Reorganize the interface such that,

* blkdev_get() is extended to include exclusive access management.
  @holder argument is added and, if is @FMODE_EXCL specified, it will
  gain exclusive access atomically w.r.t. other exclusive accesses.

* blkdev_put() is similarly extended.  It now takes @mode argument and
  if @FMODE_EXCL is set, it releases an exclusive access.  Also, when
  the last exclusive claim is released, the holder/slave symlinks are
  removed automatically.

* bd_claim/release() and close_bdev_exclusive() are no longer
  necessary and either made static or removed.

* bd_link_disk_holder() remains the same but bd_unlink_disk_holder()
  is no longer necessary and removed.

* open_bdev_exclusive() becomes a simple wrapper around lookup_bdev()
  and blkdev_get().  It also has an unexpected extra bdev_read_only()
  test which probably should be moved into blkdev_get().

* open_by_devnum() is modified to take @holder argument and pass it to
  blkdev_get().

Most of bdev open/close operations are unified into blkdev_get/put()
and most exclusive accesses are tested atomically at the open time (as
it should).  This cleans up code and removes some, both valid and
invalid, but unnecessary all the same, corner cases.

open_bdev_exclusive() and open_by_devnum() can use further cleanup -
rename to blkdev_get_by_path() and blkdev_get_by_devt() and drop
special features.  Well, let's leave them for another day.

Most conversions are straight-forward.  drbd conversion is a bit more
involved as there was some reordering, but the logic should stay the
same.

 - setting of ordered tags in uas - dead code copied from old scsi

This patch removes the controller overlap between cciss and hpsa. It was
decided that no overlap should exist. All new controllers will use the hpsa
SCSI based driver.

As described in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19922

: I had an AoE device go down overnight, and while a server was trying to
: write to it, it was also writing this message to its logs:
:
: 209                 printk(KERN_INFO "aoe: device %ld.%d is not up\n",
: 210                         d->aoemajor, d->aoeminor);
:
: The message appeared many times per second, and over several hours
: produced about 7.5 gigabytes of log files, filling up all free space on
: the root filesystem.

If CONFIG_LBDAF=y, `sector_t' becomes `u64' instead of `unsigned long':

drivers/block/z2ram.c: In function ¡do_z2_request¢:
drivers/block/z2ram.c:83: warning: format %lu expects type `long unsigned int', but argument 2 has type `sector_t'

Hence always cast it to `unsigned long long' for printing.  Also do the
pr_err() dance, while we're at it.
