Instances are happier that way and it makes more sense anyway -
the only part of the result that is related to partition we are given
is the start sector, and that has been filled in by the caller.

Everything else is a function of the disk.  Only one instance
(DASD) is ever looking at anything other than bdev-&gt;bd_disk and
that one is trivial to adjust.

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree
over and remove the historical wrapper inlines.

Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary.

BLK_MQ_F_SHOULD_MERGE is set for all tag_sets except those that purely
process passthrough commands (bsg-lib, ufs tmf, various nvme admin
queues) and thus don't even check the flag.  Remove it to simplify the

'struct memstick_device_id' are not modified in these drivers.

Constifying this structure moves some data to a read-only section, so
increases overall security.

Update memstick_dev_match(), memstick_bus_match() and struct
memstick_driver accordingly.

On a x86_64, with allmodconfig, as an example:
Before:
======
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  74055	   3455	     88	  77598	  12f1e	drivers/memstick/core/ms_block.o

After:
=====
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  74087	   3423	     88	  77598	  12f1e	drivers/memstick/core/ms_block.o

As the alloc_ordered_workqueue may return NULL pointer, it should be better
to add check for the return value. Moreover, the msb-&gt;io_queue should be
freed if error occurs later.
