It looks like this patch is very big and is hard for review/maintenance.
I was thinking of a way it could be divided into small patches but still
make it compile and run at each stage/patch for bisects.
It could be done in three stages:
1. Make a dummy API that mimics the new API but still lets old drivers/code
compile.
2. Stage 2 - convert driver by driver or group by group to new API. this can
be done in an arbitrary number of patches.
3. Final stage. do the actual move of members and implement the new API.
At this stage, if any drivers are not converted, (out-of-tree drivers),
they will not compile.
Please tell me if you need this done? should I send the all patchset or just this one divided?
(Below is a demonstration of 1st and 3rd stages at blkdev.h)
