block: rename generic_make_request to submit_bio_noacct
generic_make_request has always been very confusingly misnamed, so rename
it to submit_bio_noacct to make it clear that it is submit_bio minus
accounting and a few checks.

The routine blk_partition_remap() is invoked by -generic_make_request even before invoking the queue specific ->submit_bio, +submit_bio_noacct even before invoking the queue specific ->submit_bio, so the i/o scheduler also gets to operate on whole disk sector numbers. This should typically not require changes to block drivers, it just never gets to invoke its own partition sector offset calculations since all bios |
