cd6b4f27b9 [S390] cio: Introduce subchannel->private.
Introduce a private pointer in struct subchannel to store
per-subchannel type data (cannot use dev->priv since this
is already used for something else).

Create a new header io_sch.h for I/O subchannel specific structures
and instructions.

c94dec99f9 [S390] cio: Issue SenseID per path.
We may receive a unit check for every path when we issue a SenseID.
Unfortunately, the channel subsystem will try on a different path
every time if we use a lpm of 0xff, which will exhaust our retry
counter.

Therefore, revert SenseID to its previous per-path behaviour and
just leave out the suspend multipath reconnect.

7eff2e7a8b Driver core: change add_uevent_var to use a struct
This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a
long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the
proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.

Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the
error handling.

3f4cf6e72f [S390] cio: Avoid machine check vs. not operational races.
There was the possibilty that an action like ccw_device_set_offline()
triggered by a device gone machine check might trigger a not oper
event. Unfortunately, this could lead to the situation that we tried
to unregister a subchannel twice: Once from the slow path evaluation,
and once via the not oper event.

Fix this by always using the same mechanism (css_schedule_eval()) for
triggering the unregister. This makes sure that unregistration will
only be done once. As an added bonus, it also simplyfies the code.

6cbed91ab7 [S390] qdio: output queue stall on FCP and network devices
When running QIOASSIST enabled qdio devices in a z/VM environment
the output queue for such devices stall in heavy workload situations.
When SQBS and EQBS instructions returns CCQ=96 qdio does not reissue
the instruction again with the register settings done by millicode
but processed the returned qdio buffer. This is wrong. qdio has to
reissue the instruction once again on CCQ=96, as we already do it
for CCQ=97.

91a6902958 sysfs: add parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in .read/.write methods for sysfs binary attributes
Well, first of all, I don't want to change so many files either.

What I do:
Adding a new parameter "struct bin_attribute *" in the
.read/.write methods for the sysfs binary attributes.

In fact, only the four lines change in fs/sysfs/bin.c and
include/linux/sysfs.h do the real work.
But I have to update all the files that use binary attributes
to make them compatible with the new .read and .write methods.
I'm not sure if I missed any. :(

Why I do this:
For a sysfs attribute, we can get a pointer pointing to the
struct attribute in the .show/.store method,
while we can't do this for the binary attributes.
I don't know why this is different, but this does make it not
so handy to use the binary attributes as the regular ones.
So I think this patch is reasonable. :)

Who benefits from it:
The patch that exposes ACPI tables in sysfs
requires such an improvement.
All the table binary attributes share the same .read method.
Parameter "struct bin_attribute *" is used to get
the table signature and instance number which are used to
distinguish different ACPI table binary attributes.

Without this parameter, we need to offer different .read methods
for different ACPI table binary attributes.
This is impossible as there are various ACPI tables on different
platforms, and we don't know what they are until they are loaded.
