The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.
I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.
So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.
To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const

As originally noted by Frederic Temporelli, the aic79xx supports 64
bit addressing, but the initialization code of the driver is wrong: it
tests the available memory size instead of testing the maximum
available memory address.
This patch uses the correct dma_get_required_mask() macros to
determine the correct addressing method.

This is a set of changes that converts the PMAZ-A support to the driver model.
The use of the driver model required switching to the hotplug SCSI
initialization model, which in turn required a change to the core NCR53C9x
driver. I decided not to break all the frontend drivers and introduced an
additional parameter for esp_allocate() to select between the old and the new
model. I hope this is OK, but I would be fine with converting NCR53C9x to the
new model unconditionally as long as I do not have to fix all the other
frontends (OK, perhaps I could do some of them ;-) ).

In asd_initiate_ssp_tmf, the TMF result code is replaced with
TMF_RESP_FUNC_FAILED except when the TMF returns a result code immediately.
However, TMFs can return result codes via an ESCB... yet these codes are
also replaced with "FAILED". The only values that can fall into that case
are TMF_* codes anyway, so get rid of this code where COMPLETE and SUCCESS
are turned into FAILED. This also lets us propagate those TMF_* codes up

libsas: Don't BUG when connecting two expanders via wide port
When a device is connected to an expander, the discovery process goes through
sas_ex_discover_dev to figure out what's attached to the phy. If it is the
case that the phy being discovered happens to be the second phy of a wide link
to an expander, that discover_dev function will incorrectly call
sas_ex_discover_expander, which creates another sas_port and tries to attach the
other sas_phys to the new port, thus triggering a BUG. The correct thing to do is
to check the other ex_phys of the expander to see if there's a sas_port for this
sas_phy, and attach the sas_phy to the existing sas_port.
This is easily triggered if one enables the phys of a wide port between
expanders one by one.
This second version of the patch fixes a small regression in the case where
all the phys show up at once and we accidentally try to attach to a port
that hasn't been created yet.

Write does not trigger this bug because the driver refuses in fixed block
mode writes that are not a multiple of the block size. Read does trigger
it in my system.
The bug is not associated with any specific HBA. st tries to do direct i/o
in fixed block mode with reads that are not a multiple of tape block size.
The patch in this message fixes the st problem by switching to using the
driver buffer up to the next close of the device file in fixed block mode
if the user asks for a read like this.
I don't know why the bug has surfaced only after 2.6.17 although the st
problem is old. There may be another bug in the block subsystem and this
patch works around it. However, the patch fixes a problem in st and in
this way it is a valid fix.
This patch may also fix the bug 7900.
The patch compiles and is lightly tested.

sd_probe() calls class_device_add() even before initializing the
sdkp->device variable. class_device_add() eventually results in the user mode
udev program to be called. udev program can read the the allow_restart
attribute of the newly created scsi device. This is resulting in a crash as
the show function for allow_restart (i.e sd_show_allow_restart) returns the
attribute value by reading the sdkp->device->allow_restart variable. As the
sdkp->device is not initialized before calling the user mode hotplug helper,
this results in a crash.
The patch below solves it by calling class_device_add() only after the
necessary fields in the scsi_disk structure are initialized properly.
