this changes if() BUG(); constructs to BUG_ON() which is
cleaner, contains unlikely() and can better optimized away.

HDIO_GETGEO is implemented in most block drivers, and all of them have to
duplicate the code to copy the structure to userspace, as well as getting
the start sector. This patch moves that to common code [1] and adds a
->getgeo method to fill out the raw kernel hd_geometry structure. For many
drivers this means ->ioctl can go away now.
[1] the s390 block drivers are odd in this respect. xpram sets ->start
to 4 always which seems more than odd, and the dasd driver shifts
the start offset around, probably because of it's non-standard
sector size.

mtdblock (and other mtd modules that use the mtd_blkdevs interface
between the mtd translation layers and the linux block layer) handles
incorrectly more than 10 devices or 26 partitions in the names passed to
the generic disk layer. This causes the device file names and other
info kept by the generic disk/block layers to have names such as
"mtdblock<". Use integer formatting for device numbers; use "aa-az"
for partitions 27-52, "ba-bz" for 53-78...

Remove mtd_blkdevs refs to the no longer functional DEVFS filesystem.
Verified mtdblock continues to work fine via udev with these calls
removed.

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!
