Except for SCSI no device drivers distinguish between physical and
hardware segment limits.  Consolidate the two into a single segment
limit.

<title>block: Rename blk_queue_max_sectors to blk_queue_max_hw_sectors</title>

<id>urn:sha1:086fa5ff0854c676ec333760f4c0154b3b242616</id>
<content type='text'>
The block layer calling convention is blk_queue_&lt;limit name&gt;.
blk_queue_max_sectors predates this practice, leading to some confusion.
Rename the function to appropriately reflect that its intended use is to
set max_hw_sectors.

Also introduce a temporary wrapper for backwards compability.  This can
be removed after the merge window is closed.

<content type='text'>
For consistency drop &amp; in front of every proc_handler.  Explicity
taking the address is unnecessary and it prevents optimizations
like stubbing the proc_handlers to NULL.

Now that sys_sysctl is a wrapper around /proc/sys all of
the binary sysctl support elsewhere in the tree is
dead code.

PHYSADDR() is gone, and completely unecessary in all of the cases the
gdrom driver was using it. Kill off all references to it, and change the
one legitimate use over to virt_to_phys() instead.

It's unused.

It isn't needed -- read or write flag is already passed and sysctl
shouldn't care about the rest.

It _was_ used in two places at arch/frv for some reason.

<title>block: Do away with the notion of hardsect_size</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e1defc4ff0cf57aca6c5e3ff99fa503f5943c1f1</id>
<content type='text'>
Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case.  The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes.  Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.

This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.
