cover decrapify FlashPoint

Don't pay attention to whatever whitespace left/added on the way. Lindent will take care of it.

1) Mostly remove unused #defines.
2) Remove wrappers.

3-7) Switch to sane types.
8-13) Remove useless typedefs.

Splitted for your reviewing pleasure.

14) Lindent the sucker.
15) return (*); => return *;

Compile tested with CONFIG_SCSI_OMIT_FLASHPOINT=y and =n.

If somebody will find useful the following script used in preparation of the series, I'll be glad.
============================================================================

$ cat prepare
#!/bin/sh

PATCH="$1"
TEMP=${PATCH}_
echo "[PATCH] " >$TEMP
echo "" >>$TEMP
echo "Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <[email protected]>" >>$TEMP echo "---" >>$TEMP
echo "" >>$TEMP
diffstat -p1 $PATCH >>$TEMP
echo "" >>$TEMP
cat $PATCH >>$TEMP
mv $TEMP $PATCH

Looks sane to me.

Good job. Some people forget to do things like that. :)

Reference for others: Linus wrote an email about the canonical patch format. It's here:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=111289556807316&w=2

Alexey's prepare script is similar to what I use, genpatch, which is contained in
http://www.xenotime.net/linux/scripts/patching-scripts-003.tar.gz
