<title>Drivers: scsi: remove __dev* attributes.</title>

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
__devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

<title>SCSI host lock push-down</title>

Move the mid-layer's -&gt;queuecommand() invocation from being locked
with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.

The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
equivalent transformation.  No locking or other behavior should change
with this patch.  All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.

Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
	struct Scsi_Host *
and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
	void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)

Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd-&gt;scsi_done.

Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change.  Most drivers
needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

<title>[SCSI] advansys: fix narrow board error path</title>

Error handling on advansys_board_found is fixed, because it's buggy in
the case we have an ASC_NARROW_BOARD set and failure happens on
AscInitAsc1000Driver step: it was freeing items of wrong struct in the
dvc_var union of struct asc_board, which could lead to an oops in the
case we set some of the fields in struct of narrow board as code was
choosing to always freeing wide board fields, and not everything was
being freed/released properly.

<title>[SCSI] advansys: fix regression with request_firmware change</title>

<content type='text'>
On newer kernels users of advansys module are reporting system hang when
trying to load it without firmware files present. After looking closely
at description on https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=53220, I think
this is related to commit "[SCSI] advansys: use request_firmware". The
problem is that after switch to request_firmware, asc_dvc-&gt;err_code
isn't being set when firmware files aren't found or loading fails.

err_code is used by the driver to judge if there was a fatal error or
not, as can be seen for example on advansys_board_found, which will only
return -ENODEV when err_code is set. Because err_code isn't being set
when request_firmware fails, this is a change of behaviour of the code
before request_firmware addition, making it continue to load and it
fails later as the firmware wasn't really loaded.
