Instances are passed struct block_device *bdev argument; the only thing
it is used for (if it's used in the first place) is bdev-&gt;bd_disk.
Might as well pass that in the first place...

Both helpers are reading the partition table of the disk specified
by block_device of some partition on it; result depends only upon
the disk in question, so we might as well pass the struct gendisk
instead.

asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h;
might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include
that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header.

Convert scsicam to use a folio instead of a page.  There is no need to
check the error flag here; read_cache_folio() will return -EIO if the
folio cannot be read correctly.

There is no good reason to keep genhd.h separate from the main blkdev.h
header that includes it.  So fold the contents of genhd.h into blkdev.h
and remove genhd.h entirely.

My UEK-derived config has 1030 files depending on pagemap.h before this
change.  Afterwards, just 326 files need to be rebuilt when I touch
pagemap.h.  I think blkdev.h is probably included too widely, but
untangling that dependency is harder and this solves my problem.  x86
allmodconfig builds, but there may be implicit include problems on other
architectures.

struct partition is the on-disk format of a MSDOS partition table entry.
Move it out of genhd.h into a new msdos_partition.h header and give it
a msdos_ prefix to avoid confusion.
Also move the magic number from block/partitions/msdos.h to the new
header so that it can be used by the SCSI drivers looking at the DOS
partition tables.

Call scsi_bios_ptable from scsi_partsize instead of requiring boilerplate
code in the callers.  Also switch the calling convention to match that
of the -&gt;bios_param instances calling this function, and use true/false
for the return value instead of the weird -1 convention.
