[PATCH] block: add unlocked_ioctl support for block devices
This patch allows block device drivers to convert their ioctl functions to unlocked_ioctl() like character devices and other subsystems. All functions that were called with the BKL held before are still used that way, but I would not be surprised if it could be removed from the ioctl functions in drivers/block/ioctl.c themselves. As a side note, I found that compat_blkdev_ioctl() acquires the BKL as well, which looks like a bug. I have checked that every user of disk->fops->compat_ioctl() in the current git tree gets the BKL itself, so it could easily be removed from compat_blkdev_ioctl().
