Instances are happier that way and it makes more sense anyway -
the only part of the result that is related to partition we are given
is the start sector, and that has been filled in by the caller.

Everything else is a function of the disk.  Only one instance
(DASD) is ever looking at anything other than bdev-&gt;bd_disk and
that one is trivial to adjust.

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree
over and remove the historical wrapper inlines.

Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary.

<content type='text'>
BLK_MQ_F_SHOULD_MERGE is set for all tag_sets except those that purely
process passthrough commands (bsg-lib, ufs tmf, various nvme admin
queues) and thus don't even check the flag.  Remove it to simplify the
driver interface.

<id>urn:sha1:bd4a633b6f7c3c6b6ebc1a07317643270e751a94</id>
<content type='text'>
Move the nonrot flag into the queue_limits feature field so that it can
be set atomically with the queue frozen.

Use the chance to switch to defaulting to non-rotational and require
the driver to opt into rotational, which matches the polarity of the
sysfs interface.

For the z2ram, ps3vram, 2x memstick, ubiblock and dcssblk the new
rotational flag is not set as they clearly are not rotational despite
this being a behavior change.  There are some other drivers that
unconditionally set the rotational flag to keep the existing behavior
as they arguably can be used on rotational devices even if that is
probably not their main use today (e.g. virtio_blk and drbd).

The flag is automatically inherited in blk_stack_limits matching the
existing behavior in dm and md.

Pass a queue_limits to blk_mq_alloc_disk and apply it if non-NULL.  This
will allow allocating queues with valid queue limits instead of setting
the values one at a time later.

FDFMTBEG is used by fdformat to calibrate before formatting a disk.
Neither the atari nor PC floppy driver sync data, which also seems
a bit pointless for a disk hat is about to get formatted.

The only overlap between the block open flags mapped into the fmode_t and
other uses of fmode_t are FMODE_READ and FMODE_WRITE.  Define a new
blk_mode_t instead for use in blkdev_get_by_{dev,path}, -&gt;open and
-&gt;ioctl and stop abusing fmode_t.
