This patch will affect the CDB in INQUIRY commands sent to LUNs above 0
when LUN-0 reports a scsi_level of 0; the LUN bits will no longer be set
in the second byte of the CDB. This is as it should be. Nevertheless,
it's possible that some wacky device might be adversely affected. I doubt
anyone will complain...

Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data.
The work function can use container_of() to work out the data.
For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the
pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the
structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit.
To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the
work_struct. This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.
Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further
scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the
work function. This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself
that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything
else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated.. This is a
problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).
However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work
function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container
with no problems. But then the work function must itself release the
work_struct by calling work_release().
In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default. Special
initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR).

At the moment libata doesn't pass pm_message_t down ata_device_suspend.
This causes drives to be powered down when we just want a freeze,
causing unnecessary wear and tear. This patch gets pm_message_t passed
down so that it can be used to determine whether to power down the
drive.

In order to use the new execute_in_process_context() API, you have to
provide it with the work storage, which I do in SCSI in scsi_device and
scsi_target, but which also means that we can no longer queue up the
target reaps, so instead I moved the target to a state model which
allows target_alloc to detect if we've received a dying target and wait
for it to be gone. Hopefully, this should also solve the target
namespace race.

There's a bug in releasing scsi_device where the release function
actually frees the block queue. However, the block queue release
calls flush_work(), which requires process context (the scsi_device
structure may release from irq context). Update the release function
to invoke via the execute_in_process_context() API.
Also clean up the scsi_target structure releasing via this API.

When James Smart fixed the issue of the userspace scan atributes
crashing the system with the FC transport class he added a patch to
let the transport class check if the parent is valid for a given
transport class.
When adding support for the integrated raid of fusion sas devices
we ran into a problem with that, as it didn't allow adding virtual
raid volumes without the transport class knowing about it.
So this patch adds a user_scan attribute instead, that takes over from
scsi_scan_host_selected if the transport class sets it and thus lets
the transport class control the user-initiated scanning. As this
plugs the hole about user-initiated scanning the target_parent hook
goes away and we rely on callers of the scanning routines to do
something sensible.
For SAS this meant I had to switch from a spinlock to a mutex to
synchronize the topology linked lists, in FC they were completely
unsynchronized which seems wrong.

This patch adds suspend patch to libata, and ata_piix in particular. For
most low level drivers, they should just need to add the 4 hooks to
work. As I can only test ata_piix, I didn't enable it for more
though.
Suspend support is the single most important feature on a notebook, and
most new notebooks have sata drives. It's quite embarrassing that we
_still_ do not support this. Right now, it's perfectly possible to
suspend the drive in mid-transfer.

There's an oops that sometimes shows up with SCSI transport classes in
sysfs_hash_and_remove. The problem is that now, because of the class to
device and vice versa symlinks, all classes have to be removed from
visibility *before* the device is removed from visibility.
The transport class trigger points violate this, so bring them back into
conformance.

We fix the oops by enforcing the host state model. There have also
been two extra states added: SHOST_CANCEL_RECOVERY and
SHOST_DEL_RECOVERY so we can take the model through host removal while
the recovery thread is active.

This patch (as545) fixes the list traversals in __scsi_remove_target and
scsi_forget_host. In each case the existing code list_for_each_entry_safe
in an _unsafe_ manner, because the list was not protected from outside
modification while the iteration was running.
The new scsi_forget_host routine takes the moderately controversial step
of iterating over devices for removal rather than iterating over targets.
This makes more sense to me because the current scheme treats targets as
second-class citizens, created and removed on demand, rather than as
objects corresponding to actual hardware. (Also I couldn't figure out any
safe way to iterate over the target list, since it's not so easy to tell
when a target has already been removed.)

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
