Update existing targets to use the new symbols for return values from target
map and end_io functions.

There is no effect on behaviour.

Test results:
Done build test without errors.

<title>[PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel</title>
<updated>2006-12-08T16:28:51+00:00</updated>

<name>David Howells</name>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=f0d1b0b30d250a07627ad8b9fbbb5c7cc08422e8'/>
<id>f0d1b0b30d250a07627ad8b9fbbb5c7cc08422e8</id>
<content type='text'>
This facility provides three entry points:

	ilog2()		Log base 2 of unsigned long
	ilog2_u32()	Log base 2 of u32
	ilog2_u64()	Log base 2 of u64

These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:

	int do_something(long q)
	{
		...;
		y = ilog2(x)
		...;
	}

Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:

	unsigned n = ilog2(27);

When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
something not reducible to a constant.  They treat negative numbers as
unsigned.

When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

The patch was generated using the following script:

	set -e

	for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do

		sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file &gt;/tmp/$$
		mv /tmp/$$ $file

<title>[BLOCK] dm-crypt: benbi IV, big endian narrow block count for LRW-32-AES</title>

<content type='text'>
LRW-32-AES needs a certain IV. This IV should be provided dm-crypt.
The block cipher mode could, in principle generate the correct IV from
the plain IV, but I think that it is cleaner to supply the right IV
directly.

The sector -&gt; narrow block calculation uses a shift for performance reasons.
This shift is computed in .ctr and stored in cc-&gt;iv_gen_private (as a void *).

Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion".
Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept.

The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core
backing-dev congestion functions.

This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion
functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.
