As devfs has been disabled from the kernel tree for a number of months
now (5 to be exact), here's a patch against 2.6.16-rc1-git1 that removes
support for it from the SCSI subsystem.
The patch also removes the scsi_disk devfs_name field as it's no longer
needed.

LLDDs should never see REQ_BLOCK_PC requests, we can handle them just
fine in the core code. There is a small behaviour change in that some
check in sr's rw_intr are bypassed, but I consider the old behaviour
a bug.
Mike found this cleanup opportunity and provdided early patches, so all
the credit goes to him, even if I redid the patches from scratch beause
that was easier than forward-porting the old patches.

the scsi layer is using semaphores in a mutex way, this patch converts

This merge is pretty extensive. The conflict is over the new
req->retries parameter, so I had to change the prototype to
scsi_setup_blk_pc_cmnd() and the usage in sd, sr and st.

This follows on from Jens' patch and consolidates all of the ULD
separate handlers for REQ_BLOCK_PC into a single call which has his
fix for our direction bug.

This should eliminate (at least in the mid layer) to make numeric
assumptions about any of the enumeration variables. As a side effect,
it will also make all the messages consistent and line us up nicely for
the error logging strategy (if it ever shows itself again).

This fixes an issue in scsi command initialization from a request
where sd, sr, st, and scsi_lib all fail to copy the request's

This follows almost the identical model to sd, except that there's one
ioctl which returns raw sense data, so it had to use scsi_execute()
instead.

Here's the problem. Try to do this on 2.6.12:
- Kill udev and HAL
- Insert a CD-ROM into a SCSI or USB CD-ROM drive
- Run dd if=/dev/scd0
- cat /sys/block/sr0/size
- Eject the CD, insert a different one
- Run dd if=/dev/scd0
This is likely to do "access beyond the end of device", if you let it
- cat /sys/block/sr0/size
This shows the size of a previous CD, even though dd was supposed
to revalidate the device.
- Run dd if=/dev/scd0
The second run of dd works correctly!
The bug was introduced in 2.5.31, when Al fixes the recursive opens
in partitioning. Before, the code worked like this:
- Block layer called cdrom_open directly
- cdrom_open called sr_open
- sr_open called check_disk_change
- check_disk_change called sr_media_change
- sr_media_change did cd->needs_disk_change=1
- before returning sr_open tested cd->needs_disk_change
and called get_sector_size.
In 2.6.12, the check_disk_change is called from cdrom_open only. Thus:
- Block layer calls sr_bd_open
- sr_bd_open calls cdrom_open
- cdrom_open calls sr_open
- sr_open tests cd->needs_disk_change, which wasn't set yet; returns
- cdrom_open calls check_disk_change
- check_disk_change calls sr_media_change
- sr_media_change does cd->needs_disk_change=1, but nobody cares

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
