dasd driver changes:
- The feature check in dasd_generic_online returns an error if
the devmap entry for the device is not yet available. Check
for the feature after the device has been created.
- Do symmetric registration/deregistration of cdev->handler.

This patch changes calls to synchronize_kernel(), deprecated in the earlier
"Deprecate synchronize_kernel, GPL replacement" patch to instead call the new
synchronize_rcu() and synchronize_sched() APIs.

The ioctl32_conversion routines will be deprecated: Remove them from dasd_cmb
and handle the three cmb ioctls like all other dasd ioctls.

The first blocks on a cdl formatted dasd device are smaller than the blocksize
of the device. Read requests are padded with a 'e5' pattern. Write requests
should not pad the (user) buffer with 'e5' because a write request is not
allowed to modify the buffer.

The DASD device driver never reorders the I/O requests and relies on the
hardware to write all data to nonvolatile storage before signaling a
successful write. Hence, the only thing we have to do to support write
barriers is to set the queue ordered flag.

The independent read-only flags in devmap, dasd_device and gendisk are not
kept in sync. Use one bit per feature in the dasd driver and keep that bit in
sync with the gendisk bit.

An arbitrary guest must not be allowed to trigger cmm actions. Only one
specific guest namely the one that serves as the resource monitor may send cmm
messages. Add a parameter that allows to specify the guest that may send
messages. z/VMs resource manager has the name 'VMRMSVM' which is the default.

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!
