The drivers for Xilinx' SystemACE and physically mapped MTDs were missing
prototypes for of_address_to_resource(). This patch adds the necessary
headers.

<title>block: push down BKL into .open and .release</title>

<content type='text'>
The open and release block_device_operations are currently
called with the BKL held. In order to change that, we must
first make sure that all drivers that currently rely
on this have no regressions.

This blindly pushes the BKL into all .open and .release
operations for all block drivers to prepare for the
next step. The drivers can subsequently replace the BKL
with their own locks or remove it completely when it can
be shown that it is not needed.

The functions blkdev_get and blkdev_put are the only
remaining users of the big kernel lock in the block
layer, besides a few uses in the ioctl code, none
of which need to serialize with blkdev_{get,put}.

Most of these two functions is also under the protection
of bdev-&gt;bd_mutex, including the actual calls to
-&gt;open and -&gt;release, and the common code does not
access any global data structures that need the BKL.

Remove all the trivial wrappers for the cmd_type and cmd_flags fields in
struct requests.  This allows much easier grepping for different request
types instead of unwinding through macros.

of_device is just an alias for platform_device, so remove it entirely.  Also
replace to_of_device() with to_platform_device() and update comment blocks.

This patch was initially generated from the following semantic patch, and then
edited by hand to pick up the bits that coccinelle didn't catch.

.name, .match_table and .owner are duplicated in both of_platform_driver
and device_driver.  This patch is a removes the extra copies from struct
of_platform_driver and converts all users to the device_driver members.

This patch is a pretty mechanical change.  The usage model doesn't change
and if any drivers have been missed, or if anything has been fixed up
incorrectly, then it will fail with a compile time error, and the fixup
will be trivial.  This patch looks big and scary because it touches so
many files, but it should be pretty safe.

The following structure elements duplicate the information in
'struct device.of_node' and so are being eliminated.  This patch
makes all readers of these elements use device.of_node instead.

(struct of_device *)-&gt;node
(struct dev_archdata *)-&gt;prom_node (sparc)
(struct dev_archdata *)-&gt;of_node (powerpc &amp; microblaze)

The match_table field of the struct of_device_id is constant in &lt;linux/of_platform.h&gt;
so it is worth to make ace_of_match also constant.

The semantic match that finds this kind of pattern is as follows:

Commit 5fd29d6ccbc98884569d6f3105aeca70858b3e0f ("printk: clean up
handling of log-levels and newlines") changed printk semantics.  printk
lines with multiple KERN_&lt;level&gt; prefixes are no longer emitted as
before the patch.

&lt;level&gt; is now included in the output on each additional use.

Remove all uses of multiple KERN_&lt;level&gt;s in formats.
