      [PATCH] make <linux/blk.h> obsolete · 9cfeede4
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      This file was _the_ header for block-device related stuff in earlier
      Linux versions, but nowdays there's just a few prototypes left that
      really belong into blkdev.h or genhd.h (and in one case elevator.h).
      
      This patch moves them over and removes everything but including
      blkdev.h from blk.h  Note that blkdev.h gets all the headers that
      were included in blk.h inmplicitly too.  Now we can start removing
      all references to it an maybe kill it off before 2.6.  *sniff*

      [PATCH] Fix compat_ioctl · 4c3c3a21
      Ben Collins authored
      This fixes the compat_ioctl interface for the case where a NULL handler
      is registered. This should produce a "compatible" as opposed to
      "translated" interface for the specified ioctl. The patch was sent to
      linux-kernel and no one complained (atleast with this second rev).

      [PATCH] make __bdevname output more similar to bdevname · e515904b
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      Currently __bdevname walks the obsolete list of block majors to
      find a name for the given dev_t and falls back to unknown-block(%u,%u)
      if that's not possible.  Replace this with an attempted get_gendisk() +
      disk_name.  This means __bdevname can't be called from irq context
      anymore, but as all old irq context callers are using bdevname() now
      that fine (and I've added a big comment).

      [PATCH] remove useless MOD_{INC,DEC}_USE_COUNT from sunrpc · 8f998915
      Christoph Hellwig authored
       - both rpciod_up and rpciod_down do a gratious inc/dec of the
         use count - but we can't ever be inside those function unless
         it's called from an other module -> totally useless
       - rpciod() (the kernel thread) also bumps the refcount when starting
         and decrements it when exiting.  but as a different module must
         initiate this using rpciod_up/rpciod_down this is again not needed.
         (except when a module does rpciod_up without a matching rpciod_down -
         but that a big bug anyway and we don't need to partially handle that
         using module refcounts).
