We often need to correlate an 8 bit path mask with the position
in a channel path array. Introduce and use pathmask_to_pos for
that task.

When an attempt to query or modify the grouping state of a channel path
fails due to a timeout, we cannot be sure about its state. To get back to
a defined state, disband the whole path group and try again while excluding
the offending path.

Omit known to be broken paths (those set in path_noirq_mask) for the
sense/set PGID and nop IO commands.

Note: path_noirq_mask will be reset in ccw_device_verify_start (the
paths could be healthy again). However if we restart a path
verification via verify_start this mask will not be reset (there is
no need to let the wait for an interrupt time out again - plus we
do not want to loop once we deal with the paths in unknown path group
state).

Do not abort path verification when waiting for an interrupt timed out.
Use path_noirq_mask to keep track of the paths used for this (also
maintain a path_notoper_mask for debugging purposes). If the timeout
happend to be during an operation where we query or alter the state of
path groups set the pgid_unknown flag.

With this change we allow usage of devices which have such ill-behaved
paths (if at least one path is operational).

<title>s390/cio: fix pgid reserved check</title>

<id>d99e79ec5574fc556c988f613ed6175f6de66f4a</id>
<content type='text'>
The check to whom a device is reserved is done by checking the path
state of the affected channel paths. If it turns out that one path is
flagged as reserved by someone else the whole device is marked as such.

However the meaning of the RESVD_ELSE bit is that the addressed device
is reserved to a different pathgroup (and not reserved to a different
LPAR). If we do this test on a path which is currently not a member of
the pathgroup we could erroneously mark the device as reserved to
someone else.

To fix this collect the reserved state for all potential members of the
pathgroup and only mark the device as reserved if all of those potential
members have the RESVD_ELSE bit set.

Remove the file name from the comment at top of many files. In most
cases the file name was wrong anyway, so it's rather pointless.

Also unify the IBM copyright statement. We did have a lot of sightly
different statements and wanted to change them one after another
whenever a file gets touched. However that never happened. Instead
people start to take the old/"wrong" statements to use as a template
for new files.
So unify all of them in one go.

Change the ccwrequest infrastructure to use more than one channel
path per start I/O. A flag "singlepath" is added to struct
ccw_request - if set, the old behavior is used. This flag is set
for all exploiters of the ccwrequest infrastructure - so there
is no functional change through this patch.
