If a SCSI ULD driver sets blk_queue_prep_rq(), it should clean it
up itself on remove(), and not from the bus callbacks. This
removes the need to hook into bus-&gt;remove(), which should not
be used at the same time as driver-&gt;remove().

<title>block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size</title>

Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case.  The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes.  Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.

This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.

With recent cleanups, there is no place where low level driver
directly manipulates request fields.  This means that the 'hard'
request fields always equal the !hard fields.  Convert all
rq-&gt;sectors, nr_sectors and current_nr_sectors references to
accessors.

While at it, drop superflous blk_rq_pos() &lt; 0 test in swim.c.

[ Impact: use pos and nr_sectors accessors ]

<title>[SCSI] fix recovered error handling</title>

<id>a9bddd74630b2a1f2dedc537417c372b2d9edc76</id>
<content type='text'>
We have a problem with recovered error handling in that any command
which goes down as BLOCK_PC but which returns a sense code of RECOVERED
ERROR gets completed with -EIO.  For actual SG_IO commands, this doesn't
matter at all, since the error return code gets dropped in favour of
req-&gt;errors which contain the SCSI completion code.

However, if this command is part of the block system, then it will pay
attention to the returned error code.  In particularly if a SYNCHRONIZE
CACHE from a barrier command completes with RECOVERED ERROR, the
resulting -EIO on the barrier causes block to error the request and
return it to the filesystem.  Fix this by converting the -EIO for
recovered error to zero, plus remove the printing of this from sd and sr
so the message isn't double printed.

scsi_execute() and scsi_execute_req() discard the residual length

Update FMODE_NDELAY before each ioctl call so that we can kill the
magic FMODE_NDELAY_NOW.  It would be even better to do this directly
in setfl(), but for that we'd need to have FMODE_NDELAY for all files,
not just block special files.

To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers;
to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following:
	1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct
prototypes, make (few) callers handle both.  That's this changeset.
	2) for each driver convert to new methods.  *ALL* drivers
are converted in this series.
	3) kill the old (renamed) methods.

Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the
end of this series no trace of old methods remain.  The only reason why
we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver
debugging if anything goes wrong.

New methods:
	open(bdev, mode)
	release(disk, mode)
	ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)		/* Called without BKL */
	compat_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)
	locked_ioctl(bdev, mode, cmd, arg)	/* Called with BKL, legacy */
