Multipath is best at handling transport errors. If it gets a device
error then there is not much the multipath layer can do. It will just
access the same device but from a different path.
This patch breaks up failfast into device, transport and driver errors.
The multipath layers (md and dm mutlipath) only ask the lower levels to
fast fail transport errors. The user of failfast, read ahead, will ask
to fast fail on all errors.
Note that blk_noretry_request will return true if any failfast bit
is set. This allows drivers that do not support the multipath failfast
bits to continue to fail on any failfast error like before. Drivers
like scsi that are able to fail fast specific errors can check
for the specific fail fast type. In the next patch I will convert
scsi.

The xpram driver uses a single block device queue for all of its
devices so far. With recent kernels removing xpram module fails to
clean up all sysfs files. The next time the xpram module is loaded
you'll get warnings:
WARNING: at fs/sysfs/dir.c:463 sysfs_add_one+0x5e/0x64()
sysfs: duplicate filename '35:0' can not be created
Modules linked in: xpram(+) [last unloaded: xpram]
Followed by the usual WARN_ON output, followed by an error message
from kobject_add_internal, followed by a badness in genhd. Allocating
a block queue per device fixes this.

* Implement disk_devt() and part_devt() and use them to directly
access devt instead of computing it from ->major and ->first_minor.
Note that all references to ->major and ->first_minor outside of
block layer is used to determine devt of the disk (the part0) and as
->major and ->first_minor will continue to represent devt for the
disk, converting these users aren't strictly necessary. However,
convert them for consistency.
* Implement disk_max_parts() to avoid directly deferencing
genhd->minors.
* Update bdget_disk() such that it doesn't assume consecutive minor
space.
* Move devt computation from register_disk() to add_disk() and make it
the only one (all other usages use the initially determined value).
These changes clean up the code and will help disk->part dereference

Calling a ccw driver's notify function without the ccw device lock
held opens up a race window between discovery and handling of a change
in the device operational state. As a result, the device driver may
encounter unexpected device malfunction, leading to out-of-retry

Remove race by extending the ccw device lock from state change
discovery to the calling of the notify function.

The Perform Subsystem Function/Prepare for Read Subsystem Data
command requires 12 bytes of parameter data, but the respective data
structure dasd_psf_prssd_data has a length of 16 bytes.
Current storage servers ignore the obsolete bytes, but older models
fail to execute the command and report an incorrect length error.
This causes the device initilization for these devices to fail.
To fix this problem we need to correct the dasd_psf_prssd_data
structure and shorten it to the correct length.

The problem here is that there may exist some ccw requests that were

cleaned up later, the discipline pointer in the alias device may not

Parallel access volumes (PAV) is a storage server feature, that allows
to start multiple channel programs on the same DASD in parallel. It
defines alias devices which can be used as alternative paths to the
same disk. With the old base PAV support we only needed rudimentary
functionality in the DASD device driver. As the mapping between base
and alias devices was static, we just had to export an identifier
(uid) and could leave the combining of devices to external layers
like a device mapper multipath.
Now hyper PAV removes the requirement to dedicate alias devices to
specific base devices. Instead each alias devices can be combined with
multiple base device on a per request basis. This requires full
support by the DASD device driver as now each channel program itself
has to identify the target base device.
The changes to the dasd device driver and the ECKD discipline are:
- Separate subchannel device representation (dasd_device) from block
device representation (dasd_block). Only base devices are block
devices.
- Gather information about base and alias devices and possible
combinations.
- For each request decide which dasd_device should be used (base or
alias) and build specific channel program.
- Support summary unit checks, which allow the storage server to
upgrade / downgrade between base and hyper PAV at runtime (support
is mandatory).

single list_head variable initialized with LIST_HEAD_INIT could almost
always can be replaced with LIST_HEAD declaration, this shrinks the code
and looks better.
