      [PATCH] ide subdrivers attach() cleanup · fc4dfb65
      Alexander Viro authored
      ->attach() for ide subdrivers explicitly calls register_disk()
      instead of ata_revalidate() now; revalidate_drives() is gone -
      it's not needed anymore (we _know_ that we'll read partition
      table as soon as driver claims the drive; no need to mess with
      bogus rereading).

      [PATCH] clean up major_name · 7e06e792
      Alexander Viro authored
      ->major_name for per-disk gendisks set to full name - i.e.
      IDE gendisks have "hda", "hdb", etc. instead of "hd".
      As the result, we kill a lot of crap in check.c::disk_name().
      In particular, now we can afford ->minor_shift set to 0
      for ide-cd (disk_name() was the only obstacle)

      [PATCH] make check_disk_change() use struct block_device · 814bd2ba
      Alexander Viro authored
      check_disk_change() converted to passing struct block_device.
      
      Old variant is still needed for a couple of places; wrapper
      is provided (__check_disk_change(kdev)).  do_open() logics
      with setting ->bd_op sanitized - now we do that before calling
      ->open().

      Alexander Viro authored
      fix for embarrassing braino in /proc/partitions - size in kilobytes
      is _half_ the size in secotrs, not twice that size...
