This defeats lockdep.  Please use DEFINE_SPINLOCK.

These don't have to be implemented as macros.

GFP_ATOMIC is unreliable.  Is it really unavoidable?

I suspect we could call this after dropping the lock?

That's funny-looking and un-typesafe.  Why not do

	sp = &h->inq.c2;

?

(Dittoes in various other places..)

Unneeded (and undesirable) cast of void*.  Please check the whole
patch(set) for this.
