All these files use the big kernel lock in a trivial
way to serialize their private file operations,
typically resulting from an earlier semi-automatic
pushdown from VFS.
None of these drivers appears to want to lock against
other code, and they all use the BKL as the top-level
lock in their file operations, meaning that there
is no lock-order inversion problem.
Consequently, we can remove the BKL completely,
replacing it with a per-file mutex in every case.
Using a scripted approach means we can avoid
typos.

This driver is the only user of dma_is_consistent(). We plan to remove this
API.
The driver uses the API in the following way:
BUG_ON(!dma_is_consistent(hostdata->dev, pScript) && L1_CACHE_BYTES < dma_get_cache_alignment());
The above code tries to see if L1_CACHE_BYTES is greater than
dma_get_cache_alignment() on sysmtes that can not allocate coherent memory
(some old systems can't).
James Bottomley exmplained that this is necesary because the driver packs the
set of mailboxes into a single coherent area and separates the different
usages by a L1 cache stride. So it's fatal if the dma
He also pointed out that we can kill this checking because we don't hit this

[SCSI] reservation conflict after timeout causes device to be taken offline
Flipped us from always returning failed to always returning success in
the name of fixing the problem where reservation conflict returns from
test unit ready cause the device always to be taken offline.
Unfortuantely, it also introduced a problem whereby for commands other
than test unit ready, the eh dispatcher thinks they succeeded when
reservation conflict is returned, whereas in reality they failed. Fix
this by only returning success for the test unit ready case.

Fixed up pretty trivial conflicts in drivers/block/virtio_blk.c and
drivers/scsi/scsi_error.c as per Jens.
scsi-ml uses REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC for flush requests from file
systems. The definition of REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC is that we don't retry
requests even when we can (e.g. UNIT ATTENTION) and we send the
response to the callers (then the callers can decide what they want).
We need a workaround such as the commit
77a4229719 to retry BLOCK_PC flush
requests. We will need the similar workaround for discard requests too
since SCSI-ml handle them as BLOCK_PC internally.
This uses REQ_TYPE_FS for flush requests from file systems instead of
REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC.
scsi-ml retries only REQ_TYPE_FS requests that have data to
transfer when we can retry them (e.g. UNIT_ATTENTION). However, we
also need to retry REQ_TYPE_FS requests without data because the
callers don't.
This also changes scsi_check_sense() to retry all the REQ_TYPE_FS
requests when appropriate. Thanks to scsi_noretry_cmd(),
REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC requests don't be retried as before.
Note that basically, this reverts the commit
77a4229719 since now we use REQ_TYPE_FS
for flush requests.

Subject: [PATCH resend] scsi: convert discard to REQ_TYPE_FS from REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC
The block layer (file systems) sends discard requests as REQ_TYPE_FS
(the role of REQ_TYPE_FS is that setting up commands and interpreting
the results). But SCSI-ml treats discard requests as
REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC.
scsi-ml can handle discard requests as REQ_TYPE_FS
easily. scsi_setup_discard_cmnd() sets up struct request and the bio
nicely. Only remaining issue is that discard requests can't be
completed partially so we need to modify sd_done.
This conversion also fixes the problem that discard requests aren't
retried when possible (e.g. UNIT ATTENTION).

Every user of the BKL in the sd driver is the
result of the pushdown from the block layer
into the open/close/ioctl functions.
The only place that used to rely on the BKL is
the sdkp->openers variable, which gets converted
into an atomic_t.
Nothing else seems to rely on the BKL, since the
functions do not touch global data without holding
another lock, and the open/close functions are
still protected from concurrent execution using
the bdev->bd_mutex.

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.
