Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings.  This patch
instead introduces a new  blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
status codes and explicitly explains their meaning.  Helpers to convert from
and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.

For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
fruite to improve it.

blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

<title>block: split out request-only flags into a new namespace</title>

A lot of the REQ_* flags are only used on struct requests, and only of
use to the block layer and a few drivers that dig into struct request
internals.

This patch adds a new req_flags_t rq_flags field to struct request for
them, and thus dramatically shrinks the number of common requests.  It
also removes the unfortunate situation where we have to fit the fields
from the same enum into 32 bits for struct bio and 64 bits for
struct request.

When alloc_disk(0) is used the -&gt;major number is completely ignored.
All devices are allocated with a major of BLOCK_EXT_MAJOR.

So remove registration and deregistration of 'major'.

For block drivers that specify a parent device, convert them to use
device_add_disk().

This conversion was done with the following semantic patch:

    @@
    struct gendisk *disk;
    expression E;

    - disk-&gt;driverfs_dev = E;
    ...

...plus some manual fixups for a few missed conversions.

do_div is the wrong way to divide a sector_t, as it is less efficient
when sector_t is 32-bit wide.  With the upcoming do_div optimizations,
the kernel starts warning about this:

  drivers/memstick/core/ms_block.c: In function 'msb_io_work':
  include/asm-generic/div64.h:207:28: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast

This changes the code to use sector_div instead, which always produces
optimal code.

In h_msb_read_page() in ms_block.c, flow never reaches case
MSB_RP_RECIVE_STATUS_REG.  This causes error when MEMSTICK_INT_ERR is
encountered and status error bits are going to be examined, but the status
will never be copied back.

Fix it by transitioning to MSB_RP_RECIVE_STATUS_REG right after
MSB_RP_SEND_READ_STATUS_REG.
