Rationale for this is that I will also need to use this code
in fixing kdump host reset code prior to having the hba structure.

cciss: save pdev pointer in per hba structure early to avoid passing it around so much.

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->bd_mutex, including the actual calls to
->open and ->release, and the common code does not
access any global data structures that need the BKL.

As a preparation for the removal of the big kernel
lock in the block layer, this removes the BKL
from the common ioctl handling code, moving it
into every single driver still using it.

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.

The definition of next_command also ended up in wrong place It ended up
inside an "#ifdef CONFIG_PROCFS". Already caught by Randy Dunlap and a
couple others. Tried to put it somewhere that made sense.

Make sure we register the performant mode interrupt Another blunder.
Seemed to work because the call to put_controller_into_performant_mode was
never called.

Add support for new controllers due out next year. HP must continue to
support new controllers in older distros. All vendors require support be
upstream. These controllers support only 16 commands in simple mode but
can support up to 1024 in performant mode. See patch 5/6/ We have no
marketing names yet.
