Run this:

	#!/bin/sh
	for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
	  echo "De-casting $f..."
	  perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
	done

And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.

And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

<content type='text'>
After Christophs SCSI change, the only usage left is RQ_ACTIVE
and RQ_INACTIVE. The block layer sets RQ_INACTIVE right before freeing
the request, so any check for RQ_INACTIVE in a driver is a bug and
indicates use-after-free.

So kill/clean the remaining users, straight forward.

As the comments indicates in blkdev.h, we can fold it into -&gt;end_io_data
usage as that is really what -&gt;waiting is. Fixup the users of
blk_end_sync_rq().

Right now -&gt;flags is a bit of a mess: some are request types, and
others are just modifiers. Clean this up by splitting it into
-&gt;cmd_type and -&gt;cmd_flags. This allows introduction of generic
Linux block message types, useful for sending generic Linux commands
to block devices.

In both the read and write cases it will return an error if
copy_{from/to}_user faults.  However, I let the driver try to read/write as
much as it can just as it normally would , then finally it returns an error
if there was one.  This was the most straight forward way to handle the
error , since there isn't a clear way to clean up the buffers on error .

I moved retval in idetape_chrdev_write() down into the actual code blocks
since it's really once used there, and it conflicted with my ret variable.

Fixes the following warning,

drivers/ide/ide-tape.c: In function âidetape_copy_stage_from_userâ:
drivers/ide/ide-tape.c:2662: warning: ignoring return value of âcopy_from_userâ, declared with attribute warn_unused_result
