David Vrabel 95afae4814 xen: remove DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() macro
The DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() macro looks a bit weird and causes sparse
errors.

Replace the uses with standard structure definitions instead.  This is
similar to pci and usb device registration.

David Vrabel 7921a11c7b xen-scsifront: don't deadlock if the ring becomes full
scsifront_action_handler() will deadlock on host->host_lock, if the
ring is full and it has to wait for entries to become available.

Dan Carpenter d9b1e6374b xen-scsifront: use GFP_ATOMIC under spin_lock
This function is only called with a spin_lock held and IRQs disabled.
The allocation is not allowed to sleep and NOIO is not sufficient, it
has to be ATOMIC.

Juergen Gross 8beb8d4c91 xen-scsifront: Add Xen PV SCSI frontend driver
Introduces the Xen pvSCSI frontend. With pvSCSI it is possible for a
Xen domU to issue SCSI commands to a SCSI LUN assigned to that
domU. The SCSI commands are passed to the pvSCSI backend in a driver
domain (usually Dom0) which is owner of the physical device. This
allows e.g. to use SCSI tape drives in a Xen domU.

The code is taken from the pvSCSI implementation in Xen done by
Fujitsu based on Linux kernel 2.6.18.

Changes from the original version are:
- port to upstream kernel
- put all code in just one source file
- move module to appropriate location in kernel tree
- adapt to Linux style guide
- some minor code simplifications
- replace constants with defines
- remove not used defines
- add support for larger SG lists by putting them in a granted page
