[ Upstream commit 88ce2a530cc9865a894454b2e40eba5957a60e1a ]

mdadm relies on the fact that deleting an invalid partition returns
-ENXIO or -ENOTTY to detect if a block device is a partition or a
whole device.

[ Upstream commit 08fc1ab6d748ab1a690fd483f41e2938984ce353 ]

We need to hold the whole device bd_mutex to protect against
other thread concurrently deleting out partition before we get
to it, and thus causing a use after free.

There is a specific API to treat raw data as UUID, i.e. import_uuid().
Use it instead of uuid_copy() with explicit casting.

<content type='text'>
There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a
dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should
always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of
one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2].

<title>treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a7f7f6248d9740d710fd6bd190293fe5e16410ac</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

<id>urn:sha1:26d7e28e38206b1b3207af1409eee2269ab36f82</id>
<content type='text'>
The IBM partition parser requires device type specific information only
available to the DASD driver to correctly register partitions. The
current approach of using ioctl_by_bdev with a fake user space pointer
is discouraged.

Fix this by replacing IOCTL calls with direct in-kernel function calls.
