Hi all,
this series resurrects and forward ports ports larger parts of the
"block: don't drain file system I/O on del_gendisk" series from Ming,
but does not remove the draining in del_gendisk, but instead the one
in the sd driver, which always was a bit ad-hoc. As part of that sd
and sr are switched to use the new ->free_disk method to avoid having
to clear disk->private_data and the way to lookup the SCSI ULP is
cleaned up as well.
The latest version only has cosmetic changes and plenty of rewiews and
should be ready to merge now.
