This is another group of drivers that simply assumed that module.h was
everywhere.  But it won't be once we clean up its presence from device.h
Call out the real users of it in advance.

Apart from currently used standard memstick data transfer method, Sony
introduced several newer ones, to uncover full bandwidth/capacity of its
Pro, HG and XC media formats. This patch lays a foundation to enable
those methods as made possible by host/media capabilities.

As a side effect of this patch, mspro_block_read_attributes became more
streamlined and readable.

<title>block: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private mutex</title>

The block device drivers have all gained new lock_kernel
calls from a recent pushdown, and some of the drivers
were already using the BKL before.

This turns the BKL into a set of per-driver mutexes.
Still need to check whether this is safe to do.

mspro_block_remove() is called from detect thread that first calls the
mspro_block_stop(), which stops the request queue.  If we call
del_gendisk() with the queue stopped we get a deadlock.

<title>block: push down BKL into .open and .release</title>

The open and release block_device_operations are currently
called with the BKL held. In order to change that, we must
first make sure that all drivers that currently rely
on this have no regressions.

This blindly pushes the BKL into all .open and .release
operations for all block drivers to prepare for the
next step. The drivers can subsequently replace the BKL
with their own locks or remove it completely when it can
be shown that it is not needed.

The functions blkdev_get and blkdev_put are the only
remaining users of the big kernel lock in the block
layer, besides a few uses in the ioctl code, none
of which need to serialize with blkdev_{get,put}.

Most of these two functions is also under the protection
of bdev-&gt;bd_mutex, including the actual calls to
-&gt;open and -&gt;release, and the common code does not
access any global data structures that need the BKL.
