floppy driver does not call add_disk() on all the drives hence we don't take
gendisk reference on request queue for these drives. Don't call put_disk()
with disk-&gt;queue set, otherwise we try to put the reference we never took.

<title>floppy: Cleanup disk-&gt;queue before caling put_disk() if add_disk() was never called</title>

add_disk() takes gendisk reference on request queue. If driver failed during
initialization and never called add_disk() then that extra reference is not
taken. That reference is put in put_disk(). floppy driver allocates the
disk, allocates queue, sets disk-&gt;queue and then relizes that floppy
controller is not present. It tries to tear down everything and tries to
put a reference down in put_disk() which was never taken.

In such error cases cleanup disk-&gt;queue before calling put_disk() so that
we never try to put down a reference which was never taken in first place.

Move invalidate_bdev, block_sync_page into fs/block_dev.c.  Export
kill_bdev as well, so brd doesn't have to open code it.  Reduce
buffer_head.h requirement accordingly.

Removed a rather large comment from invalidate_bdev, as it looked a bit
obsolete to bother moving.  The small comment replacing it says enough.

When no floppy is found the module code can be released while a timer

   call_timer_fn();

Plan to remove floppy_disable_hlt in 2012, an ancient
workaround with comments that it should be removed.

This allows us to remove clutter and a run-time branch
from the idle code.

WARN_ONCE() on invocation until it is removed.

In-kernel disk event polling doesn't matter for legacy/fringe drivers
and may lead to infinite event loop if -&gt;check_events() implementation
generates events on level condition instead of edge.

Now that block layer supports suppressing exporting unlisted events,
simply leaving disk-&gt;events cleared allows these drivers to keep the
internal revalidation behavior intact while avoiding weird
interactions with userland event handler.

Code has been converted over to the new explicit on-stack plugging,
and delay users have been converted to use the new API for that.
So lets kill off the old plugging along with aops-&gt;sync_page().
