Thanks for catching the scsi bugs! It was getting late yesterday night, so
I didn't go through a full allyesconfig then.

Yes, your fixes (except the v4l2 patch, see comment there) should best be
merged into the main patches.

The idea was that if we manage to kill all fops->ioctl users right away,
we wouldn't even need Linus' patch and move to dungeon level 2 directly.
Either way works for me though.

Should we just split up the rest? If you, Frederic and me each take one
of these chunks, we're done. According to the diffstat from Linus' patch,
this is what's left:
