<content type='text'>
Merge 'block-dev' branch.

I was going to just mark everything here for stable and leave it to the
3.8 merge window, but having decided on doing another -rc, I migth as
well merge it now.

This removes the bd_block_size_semaphore semaphore that was added in
this release to fix a race condition between block size changes and
block IO, and replaces it with atomicity guaratees in fs/buffer.c
instead, along with simplifying fs/block-dev.c.

This removes more lines than it adds, makes the code generally simpler,
and avoids the latency/rt issues that the block size semaphore
introduced for mount.

I'm not happy with the timing, but it wouldn't be much better doing this
during the merge window and then having some delayed back-port of it
into stable.

* block-dev:
  blkdev_max_block: make private to fs/buffer.c
  direct-io: don't read inode-&gt;i_blkbits multiple times
  blockdev: remove bd_block_size_semaphore again
  fs/buffer.c: make block-size be per-page and protected by the page lock

This reverts the block-device direct access code to the previous
unlocked code, now that fs/buffer.c no longer needs external locking.

With this, fs/block_dev.c is back to the original version, apart from a
whitespace cleanup that I didn't want to revert.

<title>sonypi: suspend/resume callbacks should be conditionally compiled on CONFIG_PM_SLEEP</title>

This will fix warnings like following when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is not set:

        warning: 'xxx_suspend' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
        warning: 'xxx_resume' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]

Because
	SET_SYSTEM_SLEEP_PM_OPS(suspend_fn, resume_fn)

Only references the callbacks on CONFIG_PM_SLEEP (instead of CONFIG_PM).

It doesn't work since the gtt pte range sits in the middle of the mmio
bar. We didn't notice that since both my and Chris' gen2 machines
don't support PAT and hence all wc io mapping request will
automatically be demoted to uc.

This regression has been introduce in
