For extended error reporting we sometimes have to start an
Sense Subsystem Status request (SNSS). When this request needs
to be recovered for some reason, the recovery request will
fail with 'command reject'.
Our usual recovery procedure will retry the failed request by
creating a new request and chaining the failed request from that
one. SNSS requests, though, must not be chained from anything,
so the recovery request will fail permanently.
Use the default recovery for SNSS request, which will just restart
the original request without further ado.

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

The initialization of the dasd_eer code is one of the last steps of the
dasd driver initialization. When initialization fails in one of the
earlier steps, the dasd_exit function is called to clean up what has been
done so far. So the dasd_eer_exit function may be called, although the
dasd_eer_init function wasn't called before and dasd_eer_exit tries to
unregister a misc device that wasn't registered, which results in a BUG.
Make sure that dasd_eer_exit can be called without initialization. Use a
dynamically allocated struct miscdevice instead of a static one, so we
only try to unregister the device if it exists and was actually registered.

The struct dasd_eer_header needs the packed attribute, or there will
be 6 additional bytes of random data between the fixed header and
the variable length part of the eer data.

locking init cleanups:
- convert " = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED" to spin_lock_init() or DEFINE_SPINLOCK()
- convert rwlocks in a similar manner
this patch was generated automatically.
Motivation:
- cleanliness
- lockdep needs control of lock initialization, which the open-coded
variants do not give
- it's also useful for -rt and for lock debugging in general

The DASD extended error reporting is a facility that allows to get detailed
information about certain problems in the DASD I/O. This information can be
used to implement fail-over applications that can recover these problems.
