6c99a8528f virtio_blk: Remove VBID ioctl
With the availablility of a sysfs device attribute for examining disk serial
numbers the ioctl is no longer needed.  The user-space changes for this aren't
upstream yet so we don't have any users to worry about.

a5eb9e4ff1 virtio_blk: Add 'serial' attribute to virtio-blk devices (v2)
Create a new attribute for virtio-blk devices that will fetch the serial number
of the block device.  This attribute can be used by udev to create disk/by-id
symlinks for devices that don't have a UUID (filesystem) associated with them.

ATA_IDENTIFY strings are special in that they can be up to 20 chars long
and aren't required to be nul-terminated.  The buffer is also zero-padded
meaning that if the serial is 19 chars or less that we get a nul-terminated
string.  When copying this value into a string buffer, we must be careful to
copy up to the nul (if it present) and only 20 if it is longer and not to
attempt to nul terminate; this isn't needed.

Changes since v1:
- Added BUILD_BUG_ON() for PAGE_SIZE check
- Removed min() since BUILD_BUG_ON() handles the check
- Replaced serial_sysfs() by copying id directly to buffer

10bc310c27 virtio_blk: support barriers without FLUSH feature
If we want to support barriers with the cache=writethrough mode in qemu
we need to tell the block layer that we only need queue drains to
implement a barrier.  Follow the model set by SCSI and IDE and assume
that there is no volatile write cache if the host doesn't advertize it.
While this might imply working barriers on old qemu versions or other
hypervisors that actually have a volatile write cache this is only a
cosmetic issue - these hypervisors don't guarantee any data integrity
with or without this patch, but with the patch we at least provide
data ordering.

c1c5413ad5 x86: Unplug emulated disks and nics.
Add a xen_emul_unplug command line option to the kernel to unplug
xen emulated disks and nics.

Set the default value of xen_emul_unplug depending on whether or
not the Xen PV frontends and the Xen platform PCI driver have
been compiled for this kernel (modules or built-in are both OK).

The user can specify xen_emul_unplug=ignore to enable PV drivers on HVM
even if the host platform doesn't support unplug.

This was a very hard to trigger race condition.

If we got a state packet from the peer, after drbd_nl_disk() has
already changed the disk state to D_NEGOTIATING but
after_state_ch() was not yet run by the worker, then receive_state()
might called drbd_sync_handshake(), which in turn crashed
when accessing p_uuid.

c2cdf6aba0 powerpc/macio: Fix probing of macio devices by using the right of match table
Grant patches added an of mach table to struct device_driver. However,
while he changed the macio device code to use that, he left the match
table pointer in struct macio_driver and didn't update drivers to use
the "new" one, thus breaking the probing.

This completes the change by moving all drivers to setup the "new"
one, removing all traces of the old one, and while at it (since it
changes the exact same locations), I also remove two other duplicates
from struct driver which are the name and owner fields.

5dbf167338 drbd: need to set socket bufsize early to take effect
quoting tcp(7):
    On individual connections, the socket buffer size must be set prior to the
    listen(2) or connect(2) calls in order to have it take effect.

This adds a wrapper to do so, and uses it appropriately.
Improves performance in certain situations.

Note that because we cannot easily determine which socket will be
"meta" and wich "data" (bulk) socket, we adjust both sockets.
Previously, DRBD only adjusted the bufsizes of the "data" socket.

4018294b53 of: Remove duplicate fields from of_platform_driver
.name, .match_table and .owner are duplicated in both of_platform_driver
and device_driver.  This patch is a removes the extra copies from struct
of_platform_driver and converts all users to the device_driver members.

This patch is a pretty mechanical change.  The usage model doesn't change
and if any drivers have been missed, or if anything has been fixed up
incorrectly, then it will fail with a compile time error, and the fixup
will be trivial.  This patch looks big and scary because it touches so
many files, but it should be pretty safe.

the /dev/disk hierarchy may contain useful entries such as

 $ ls -l /dev/disk/by-label/Fedora-12-x86_64-Live
 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Mar 11 13:41 /dev/disk/by-label/Fedora-12-x86_64-Live -> ../../loop0

Unfortunately, no "change" uevent is generated when the loop device is
detached so the symlink persists. Additionally, no "change" uevent is
guaranteed to be generated when attaching an fd or changing capacity.
For example,  user space could open the loop device O_RDONLY (in fact,
recent util-linux-ng does this) so udev's OPTIONS+="watch" machinery may
not trigger the "change" uevent.

This patch ensures that the "change" uevent is generated in all of
these cases. As a result, the /dev/disk hierarchy works as expected
for loop devices.

234f2725a5 Add virtio disk identification ioctl
Return serial string to the guest application via
ioctl driver call.

Note this form of interface to the guest userland
was the consensus when the prior version using
the ATA_IDENTIFY came under dispute.

61c7a080a5 of: Always use 'struct device.of_node' to get device node pointer.
The following structure elements duplicate the information in
'struct device.of_node' and so are being eliminated.  This patch
makes all readers of these elements use device.of_node instead.

(struct of_device *)->node
(struct dev_archdata *)->prom_node (sparc)
(struct dev_archdata *)->of_node (powerpc & microblaze)
