scsi: saner replacements for ->proc_info()
It's still an obsolete interface; don't introduce those in new drivers.
However, it's saner than the ->proc_info() and commits after this one
will convert the existing ->proc_info() users to it.
The read side is ->show_info(seq_file *, struct Scsi_Host *); use
seq_... for generating contents.
The write side is ->write_info(struct Scsi_Host *, char *, int).
Again, this is driven by procfs needs; we are going to kill ->write_proc()
and ->read_proc() and this is the main obstacle to burying that piece of
shit.

The procfs debug code in rtl_debug.c is, ironically, very buggy: it lacks proper locking.

Nest rename_lock inside vfsmount_lock
... lest we get livelocks between path_is_under() and d_path() and friends.
The thing is, wrt fairness lglocks are more similar to rwsems than to rwlocks;
it is possible to have thread B spin on attempt to take lock shared while thread
A is already holding it shared, if B is on lower-numbered CPU than A and there's
a thread C spinning on attempt to take the same lock exclusive.
As the result, we need consistent ordering between vfsmount_lock (lglock) and
rename_lock (seq_lock), even though everything that takes both is going to take
vfsmount_lock only shared.

For 82576 MAC type, max_adj is reported as 1000000000 ppb. However, if

INCVALUE_82576_MASK, resulting in setting of zero TIMINCA.incvalue, stopping
the PHC (instead of going at twice the nominal speed).
Fix the advertised max_adj value to the largest value hardware can handle.
As there is no min_adj value available (-max_adj is used instead), this will

there is another socket attempting to write to this partially
released socket in between when sock->sk is set to NULL and it is
