More cleanup. In this patch-set we deal with the following issues: 1) While a Linux guest on Hyper-V can be assigned removable media devices (DVD, floppy etc), these devices are not handled by the Hyper-V block driver. So, we cleanup all the dead code dealing with removable media devices. 2) There were multiple functions to retrieve information about the device. Since much of

Further cleanup of the hv drivers: 1) Cleanup the reference counting mess for both stor and net devices. 2) Handle all block devices using the storvsc driver. 3) Accomodate some host side scsi emulation bugs. 4) In case of scsi errors off-line the device. Regads, K. Y

The latest upstream merge changed struct block_device_operations: This merge got rid of blkvsc_media_changed and introduced the function blkvsc_check_events. This broke all the patches that were sent after the tree was closed the last time. This is a resend of this patch-set to account for this change in the kernel. More cleanup.
