gcc-7 points out that a large controller number would overflow the
string length for the procfs name and the firmware version string:

drivers/block/DAC960.c: In function 'DAC960_Probe':
drivers/block/DAC960.c:6591:38: warning: 'sprintf' may write a terminating nul past the end of the destination [-Wformat-overflow=]
drivers/block/DAC960.c: In function 'DAC960_V1_ReadControllerConfiguration':
drivers/block/DAC960.c:1681:40: error: '%02d' directive writing between 2 and 3 bytes into a region of size between 2 and 5 [-Werror=format-overflow=]
drivers/block/DAC960.c:1681:40: note: directive argument in the range [0, 255]
drivers/block/DAC960.c:1681:3: note: 'sprintf' output between 10 and 14 bytes into a destination of size 12

Both of these seem appropriately sized, and using snprintf()
instead of sprintf() improves this by ensuring that even
incorrect data won't cause undefined behavior here.

<title>block: introduce new block status code type</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2a842acab109f40f0d7d10b38e9ca88390628996</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings.  This patch
instead introduces a new  blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
status codes and explicitly explains their meaning.  Helpers to convert from
and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.

For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
fruite to improve it.

blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include &lt;linux/uaccess.h&gt;!" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

It makes the message hard to interpret correctly if a base 10 number is
prefixed by 0x.  So change to a hex number.

<title>DAC960: remove sleep_on usage</title>

sleep_on and its variants are going away. The use of sleep_on() in
DAC960_V2_ExecuteUserCommand seems to be bogus because the command
by the time we get there, the command has completed already and
we just enter the timeout. Based on this interpretation, I concluded
that we can replace it with a simple msleep(1000) and rearrange the
code around it slightly.

The interruptible_sleep_on_timeout in DAC960_gam_ioctl seems equivalent
to the race-free version using wait_event_interruptible_timeout.
I left the driver to return -EINTR rather than -ERESTARTSYS to preserve
the timeout behavior.

The only part of proc_dir_entry the code outside of fs/proc
really cares about is PDE(inode)-&gt;data.  Provide a helper
for that; static inline for now, eventually will be moved
to fs/proc, along with the knowledge of struct proc_dir_entry
layout.

Pull block driver bits from Jens Axboe:
 "After the block IO core bits are in, please grab the driver updates
  from below as well.  It contains:

   - Fix ancient regression in dac960.  Nobody must be using that
     anymore...

   - Some good fixes from Guo Ghao for loop, fixing both potential
     oopses and deadlocks.

   - Improve mtip32xx for NUMA systems, by being a bit more clever in
     distributing work.

   - Add IBM RamSan 70/80 driver.  A second round of fixes for that is
     pending, that will come in through for-linus during the 3.9 cycle
     as per usual.

   - A few xen-blk{back,front} fixes from Konrad and Roger.

   - Other minor fixes and improvements."

There is a missing break statement here.  This used to return directly
but we re-worked it in 2008 to add locking as part of the BKL push down.
