block: remove support for bio remapping from ->make_request

2011-09-12T10:12:01+00:00

There is very little benefit in allowing to let a ->make_request
instance update the bios device and sector and loop around it in
__generic_make_request when we can archive the same through calling
generic_make_request from the driver and letting the loop in
generic_make_request handle it.

Note that various drivers got the return value from ->make_request and
returned non-zero values for errors.

treewide: Convert uses of struct resource to resource_size(ptr)

2011-06-10T12:55:36+00:00

Several fixes as well where the +1 was missing.

Done via coccinelle scripts like:

@@
struct resource *ptr;
@@

- ptr->end - ptr->start + 1
+ resource_size(ptr)

and some grep and typing.

Mostly uncompiled, no cross-compilers.

powerpc: Remove ioremap_flags

2011-05-19T04:30:43+00:00

We have a confusing number of ioremap functions. Make things just a
bit simpler by merging ioremap_flags and ioremap_prot.

dt/powerpc: Eliminate users of of_platform_{,un}register_driver

2011-02-28T08:36:39+00:00

Get rid of old users of of_platform_driver in arch/powerpc.  Most
of_platform_driver users can be converted to use the platform_bus
directly.

powerpc: remove references to of_device and to_of_device

2010-07-24T15:58:21+00:00

of_device is just a #define alias to platform_device.  This patch
replaces all references to it with platform_device.

of: Remove duplicate fields from of_platform_driver

2010-05-22T06:10:40+00:00

.name, .match_table and .owner are duplicated in both of_platform_driver
and device_driver.  This patch is a removes the extra copies from struct
of_platform_driver and converts all users to the device_driver members.

This patch is a pretty mechanical change.  The usage model doesn't change
and if any drivers have been missed, or if anything has been fixed up
incorrectly, then it will fail with a compile time error, and the fixup
will be trivial.  This patch looks big and scary because it touches so
many files, but it should be pretty safe.

of: Always use 'struct device.of_node' to get device node pointer.

2010-05-18T22:10:44+00:00

The following structure elements duplicate the information in
'struct device.of_node' and so are being eliminated.  This patch
makes all readers of these elements use device.of_node instead.

(struct of_device *)->node
(struct dev_archdata *)->prom_node (sparc)
(struct dev_archdata *)->of_node (powerpc & microblaze)

block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size

2009-05-22T21:22:54+00:00

Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case.  The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes.  Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.

This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.
