This represents the mass deletion of the of the tokenring support.
It gets rid of:
- the net/tr.c which the drivers depended on
- the drivers/net component
- the Kbuild infrastructure around it
- any tokenring related CONFIG_ settings in any defconfigs
- the tokenring headers in the include/linux dir
- the firmware associated with the tokenring drivers.
- any associated token ring documentation.

Using strlcpy instead of memcpy makes the strlen() calls superfluous
and also ensures zero-termination of the copied string.
At the same time get rid of the magic constant 50.
Actually, I can't see why copying the callback name is necessary
instead of simply storing a pointer to it (just like to the callback
function itself), but that goes beyond the scope of this fix.

[Resend patch as per Bernd Schubert comment ]
Issue:
Device goes offline while doing aggressive HBA reset
along with IO using some utility.
Root cause:
FW goes into bad state due to aggressive reset. Softreset does not
help to recover FW. And also aggressive reset open up the window for
Error handling thread to kicked off at the same time HBA will be in
constant RESET loop as part of aggressive reset test case can lead
Device to goes offline.
Changes:
1. Added extra check as below inside eh_timed_out call back as below.
if(ioc->ioc_reset_in_progress) Rc = EH_TIMER_RESET
2. Removed " DOORBELL_ACTIVE" check for SAS controller from task
management context. Since SAS controller uses high priority queue
for task management. This check is not required for SAS controller.
3. Moved SoftReset call to HardReset from Task Mgmt context.

There's a branch at the end of this function that
is supposed to normalize the return value with what
the mid-layer expects. In this one case, we get it wrong.
Also increase the verbosity of the INFO level printk
at the end of mptscsih_abort to include the actual return value
and the scmd->serial_number. The reason being success
or failure is actually determined by the state of
the internal tag list when a TMF is issued, and not the
return value of the TMF cmd. The serial_number is also
used in this decision, thus it's useful to know for debugging
purposes.

Needed to update to apply fixes for which the old branch was too
outdated.
Move the mid-layer's ->queuecommand() invocation from being locked
with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.
The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
equivalent transformation. No locking or other behavior should change
with this patch. All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.
Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
struct Scsi_Host *
and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)
Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd->scsi_done.
Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change. Most drivers
needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

All these files use the big kernel lock in a trivial
way to serialize their private file operations,
typically resulting from an earlier semi-automatic
pushdown from VFS.
None of these drivers appears to want to lock against
other code, and they all use the BKL as the top-level
lock in their file operations, meaning that there
is no lock-order inversion problem.
Consequently, we can remove the BKL completely,
replacing it with a per-file mutex in every case.
Using a scripted approach means we can avoid
typos.

Issue description:
In multipath topology, when device deletion is in transient state,
multipath driver can call blk_flush_queue() as part of path failure.
Before device get deleted from OS, Device may go OFFLINE as part of error
handling kicked off triggered from multipathing driver. Above condition hits
more frequently if device missing delay timer (which is LSI specific firmware
parameter) is non zero value.
root cause of this issue is Error handling thread is getting kicked off for
device which is not really present(in transient state of deleting).
This patch has solution for this issue. driver is now using eh_timed_out
callback. See below.
mptsas_transport_template->eh_timed_out = mptsas_eh_timed_out
Using mptsas_eh_timed_out function, driver can decide weather vdevice is
under Device missing delay or deleting state.
for either of those cases, there is BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER return to scsi mid
and error handling thread will not be kicked off for that particular scsi
command.
