This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\&lt;POLL$V\&gt;\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Pull core block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the main pull request for block storage for 4.15-rc1.

  Nothing out of the ordinary in here, and no API changes or anything
  like that. Just various new features for drivers, core changes, etc.
  In particular, this pull request contains:

   - A patch series from Bart, closing the whole on blk/scsi-mq queue
     quescing.

   - A series from Christoph, building towards hidden gendisks (for
     multipath) and ability to move bio chains around.

   - NVMe
        - Support for native multipath for NVMe (Christoph).
        - Userspace notifications for AENs (Keith).
        - Command side-effects support (Keith).
        - SGL support (Chaitanya Kulkarni)
        - FC fixes and improvements (James Smart)
        - Lots of fixes and tweaks (Various)

   - bcache
        - New maintainer (Michael Lyle)
        - Writeback control improvements (Michael)
        - Various fixes (Coly, Elena, Eric, Liang, et al)

   - lightnvm updates, mostly centered around the pblk interface
     (Javier, Hans, and Rakesh).

   - Removal of unused bio/bvec kmap atomic interfaces (me, Christoph)

   - Writeback series that fix the much discussed hundreds of millions
     of sync-all units. This goes all the way, as discussed previously
     (me).

   - Fix for missing wakeup on writeback timer adjustments (Yafang
     Shao).

   - Fix laptop mode on blk-mq (me).

   - {mq,name} tupple lookup for IO schedulers, allowing us to have
     alias names. This means you can use 'deadline' on both !mq and on
     mq (where it's called mq-deadline). (me).

   - blktrace race fix, oopsing on sg load (me).

   - blk-mq optimizations (me).

   - Obscure waitqueue race fix for kyber (Omar).

   - NBD fixes (Josef).

   - Disable writeback throttling by default on bfq, like we do on cfq
     (Luca Miccio).

   - Series from Ming that enable us to treat flush requests on blk-mq
     like any other request. This is a really nice cleanup.

   - Series from Ming that improves merging on blk-mq with schedulers,
     getting us closer to flipping the switch on scsi-mq again.

   - BFQ updates (Paolo).

   - blk-mq atomic flags memory ordering fixes (Peter Z).

   - Loop cgroup support (Shaohua).

   - Lots of minor fixes from lots of different folks, both for core and
     driver code"

* 'for-4.15/block' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (294 commits)
  nvme: fix visibility of "uuid" ns attribute
  blk-mq: fixup some comment typos and lengths
  ide: ide-atapi: fix compile error with defining macro DEBUG
  blk-mq: improve tag waiting setup for non-shared tags
  brd: remove unused brd_mutex
  blk-mq: only run the hardware queue if IO is pending
  block: avoid null pointer dereference on null disk
  fs: guard_bio_eod() needs to consider partitions
  xtensa/simdisk: fix compile error
  nvme: expose subsys attribute to sysfs
  nvme: create 'slaves' and 'holders' entries for hidden controllers
  block: create 'slaves' and 'holders' entries for hidden gendisks
  nvme: also expose the namespace identification sysfs files for mpath nodes
  nvme: implement multipath access to nvme subsystems
  nvme: track shared namespaces
  nvme: introduce a nvme_ns_ids structure
  nvme: track subsystems

Commit 109bade9c625 ("scsi: sg: use standard lists for sg_requests")
introduced an off-by-one error in sg_ioctl(), which was fixed by commit
bd46fc406b30 ("scsi: sg: off by one in sg_ioctl()").

Unfortunately commit 4759df905a47 ("scsi: sg: factor out
sg_fill_request_table()") moved that code, and reintroduced the
bug (perhaps due to a botched rebase).  Fix it again.

When calling SG_GET_REQUEST_TABLE ioctl only a half-filled table is
returned; the remaining part will then contain stale kernel memory
information.  This patch zeroes out the entire table to avoid this
issue.
