1963403aae [S390] monreader: remove lock_kernel() from open() function
The lock_kernel() calls in the open() function are unnecessary because
misc_register() is called last in module_init() and concurrent open()
calls are handled by other means.

39475179d4 [S390] Improve code generated by atomic operations.
Git commit ea43546750 changed the
definition of atomic_t and atomic64_t for s390 by adding the volatile
modifier to the counter field. This has an unfortunate side effect
with newer versions of the gcc. The typeof operator now picks up the
volatile modifier from the expression. This causes the compiler to
think that it has to store the two temporary variable old_val and
new_val in the __CS_LOOP for the different atomic operations to the
stack as the variables are now volatile. Both stores are superfluous.

The hack to replace typeof(ptr->counter) with int in __CS_LOOP and
and long long in __CSG_LOOP avoids the two stores. A better solution
would be to drop the volatile from the counter field of the atomic_t
and atomic64_t definition. But that is a touchy subject ..

a6a5d73a56 [S390] zcrypt: special command support for cex3 exploitation
Support for special command is implemented in the AP Bus in the NQAP
function __ap_send. This is extended for a further parameter special.
When set, the special bit, in GR0 will be set. Therefor the ap_message
struct is extended for a further bit. Thus calling functions of
__ap_send can use the special parameter in ap_message to give to
__ap_send. Affected is in the first place ap_queue_message, which is
called by the actual card driver. The second part of this support is
that the card driver for the CEX3C needs to set this special bit, when
an according CPRB is sent to the driver.

eb6e199bef [S390] dasd: improve error recovery for internal I/O
Most of the error conditions reported by a FICON storage server
indicate situations which can be recovered. Sometimes the host just
needs to retry an I/O request, but sometimes the recovery
is more complex and requires the device driver to wait, choose
a different path, etc.

The DASD device driver has a fully featured error recovery
for normal block layer I/O, but not for internal I/O request which
are for example used during the device bring up.
This can lead to situations where the IPL of a system fails because
DASD devices are not properly recognized.
This patch will extend the internal I/O handling to use the existing
error recovery procedures.

22825ab769 [S390] dasd: support DIAG access for read-only devices
When a DASD device is used with the DIAG discipline, the DIAG
initialization will indicate success or error with a respective
return code. So far we have interpreted a return code of 4 as error,
but it actually means that the initialization was successful, but
the device is read-only. To allow read-only devices to be used with
DIAG we need to accept a return code of 4 as success.

Re-initialization of the DIAG access is also part of the DIAG error
recovery. If we find that the access mode of a device has been
changed from writable to read-only while the device was in use,
we print an error message.

52ef0608e3 [S390] cio: use sense-pgid operation for path verification
Set-pgid operations fail for some device types under z/VM for which
the hypervisor has already set the pgid. Also reserved devices or
changed pgids are not correctly recognized. Fix these problems by
using a combination of sense-pgid and set-pgid and by also accepting
pre-defined pgid settings.

454e1fa1eb [S390] cio: split PGID settings and status
Split setting (driver wants feature enabled) and status (feature
setup was successful) for PGID related ccw device features so that
setup errors can be detected. Previously, incorrectly handled setup
errors could in rare cases lead to erratic I/O behavior and
permanently unusuable devices.

4257aaecff [S390] cio: remove intretry flag
After changing all internal I/O functions to use the newly introduced
ccw request infrastructure, retries are handled automatically after a
clear operation. Therefore remove the internal retry flag and
associated code.

350e91207b [S390] cio: allow setting not-operational devices offline
Accept a request for setting a not-operational device offline.
This way, users can remove devices from Linux which would otherwise
remain unusable until reboot.
