[SCSI] a4000t, zorro7xx, mvme16x, bvme6000,sim710: xxx_device_remove seems buggy

Fix drivers misusing dev_to_shost

Some drivers were using dev_to_shost to go from a struct device to the
corresponding shost. Unfortunately, dev_to_shost only looks up the tree
to find an shost (it's designed to go from a scsi_device or a
scsi_target to the parent scsi_host), and these drivers were calling it
with the parent of the scsi_host.

I've fixed this by saving a pointer to the Scsi_Host in the drvdata,
which matches what most scsi drivers do.

[SCSI] 53c700: Allow setting burst length

This is a patch, which allows not only disabling bursting but to specify
different burst lenghts. This feature is needed to get the 53c700 driver
working for the onboard SCSI controller of SNI RM machines, which only
work reliably with a 4 word burst length.

[PATCH] EISA bus MODALIAS attributes support

[PATCH] EISA bus MODALIAS attributes support

Add modalias attribute support for the almost forgotten now EISA bus and
(at least some) EISA-aware modules.

The modalias entry looks like (for an 3c509 NIC):

eisa:sTCM5093

and the in-module alias like:

eisa:sTCM5093*

The patch moves struct eisa_device_id declaration from include/linux/eisa.h
to include/linux/mod_devicetable.h (so that the former now #includes the
latter), adds proper MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(eisa, ...) statements for all
drivers with EISA IDs I found (some drivers already have that DEVICE_TABLE
declared), and adds recognision of __mod_eisa_device_table to
scripts/mod/file2alias.c so that proper modules.alias will be generated.

There's no support for /lib/modules/$kver/modules.eisamap, as it's not used
by any existing tools, and because with in-kernel modalias mechanism those
maps are obsolete anyway.

The rationale for this patch is:

a) to make EISA bus to act as other busses with modalias
support, to unify driver loading

b) to foget about EISA finally - with this patch, kernel
(who still supports EISA) will be the only one who knows
how to choose the necessary drivers for this bus ;)

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
