This patch (as868) adds a helper routine for device drivers that need
to set up a callback to perform some action in a different process's
context. This is intended for use by attribute methods that want to
unregister themselves or their parent device. Attribute method calls
are mutually exclusive with unregistration, so such actions cannot be
taken directly.
Two attribute methods are converted to use the new helper routine: one
for SCSI device deletion and one for System/390 ccwgroup devices.

ocfs2: Proper cleanup in case of error in ocfs2_register_hb_callbacks()
NB: driver is choke-full of code that will break on big-endian; as long
as the hardware is onboard-only we can live with that, but sooner or
later that'll need fixing.

Under load, OCFS2 would crash in invalidate_inode_pages2_range() because
invalidate_complete_page2() was unable to invalidate a page. It would
appear that JBD is holding on to the page. ext3 has a specific
->releasepage() handler to cover this case.
Steal ext3's ->releasepage(), ->invalidatepage(), and ->migratepage(), as
they appear completely appropriate for OCFS2.

This means that a build-up and a teardown could race which would result in a
double-kthread_stop().
Protect the setting and clearing of hr_task with o2hb_live_lock, as it's not
a common thing and not performance critical.

If ocfs2_register_hb_callbacks() succeeds on its first callback but fails
its second, it doesn't release the first on the way out. Fix that.
While we're at it, o2hb_unregister_callback() never returns anything but
0, so let's make it void.
