Commit d62f5576 (pata_cmd64x: fix handling of address setup timings)
incorrectly called ata_timing_compute() on UDMA mode on 0 @UT leading
to devide by zero fault. Revert it until better fix is available.
This is reported in bko#16607 by Milan Kocian who also root caused it.

'make htmldocs' has a fatal error when processing libata.xml, as seen
below. The string "Example patterns:" (or any string with "example.*:"
in it AFAIK) causes some part of the doc generation tool chain to try to
produce an <informalexample> block without a beginning <para>, but
there is an ending </para> generated, which throws things out of kilter.
I don't even know where (what program) this is happening in.
I searched in docproc and xmlto and in some XML stylesheets without
finding anything. If anyone can give me pointers about this, please do.
Until this is fixed, let's just spell "Example" as "Sample"
and match up the double quotation marks while there.

Remove the current bio flags and reuse the request flags for the bio, too.
This allows to more easily trace the type of I/O from the filesystem
down to the block driver. There were two flags in the bio that were
missing in the requests: BIO_RW_UNPLUG and BIO_RW_AHEAD. Also I've
renamed two request flags that had a superflous RW in them.
Note that the flags are in bio.h despite having the REQ_ name - as
blkdev.h includes bio.h that is the only way to go for now.

SIDPR window registers are shared across ports and as each access is
done in two steps, accesses to different ports under EH may race.
This primarily is caused by incorrect host locking in EH context and
should be fixed by defining locking requirements for each EH operation
which can be used during EH and enforcing them but for now work around
the problem by adding a dedicated SIDPR lock and grabbing it for each
SIDPR access.

The driver is using platform_driver_probe() during initialization,
so ahci_driver.probe hook is never used.
But it causes the following (harmless, luckily) section mismatch:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x2fb20): Section mismatch in reference
from the variable ahci_driver to the function .init.text:ahci_probe()
This patch removes the ahci_driver.probe assignment, thus fixes
the warning.
p.s. Note that there's another patch[1] from Rene Bolldorf that
tried to solve the same issue by __refdata annotation. __refdata
says that this reference is actually OK, but in fact it is not OK,
because dereferencing .probe() will cause problems. So the proper
fix is to remove the assignment.

libata has two concurrency related limitations.
a. ata_wq which is used for polling PIO has single thread per CPU. If
there are multiple devices doing polling PIO on the same CPU, they
can't be executed simultaneously.
b. ata_aux_wq which is used for SCSI probing has single thread. In
cases where SCSI probing is stalled for extended period of time
which is possible for ATAPI devices, this will stall all probing.
#a is solved by increasing maximum concurrency of ata_wq. Please note
that polling PIO might be used under allocation path and thus needs to
be served by a separate wq with a rescuer.
#b is solved by using the default wq instead and achieving exclusion
via per-port mutex.

Commit 96d60303fd (ahci: Turn off DMA engines when there's no device)
implemented stopping DMA engines on empty ports but it used single

disabling of DMA engines on occupied ports. Do it after all EH
actions are complete using device presence state determined by EH.
This avoids spurious disabling of DMA engines and simplifies the code.

Implement ata_scsi_unlock_native_capacity() which will be called
through SCSI layer when block layer notices that partitions on a
device extend beyond the end of the device. It requests EH to unlock
HPA, waits for completion and returns the current device capacity.
This allows libata to unlock HPA on demand instead of having to decide
whether to unlock upfront. Unlocking on demand is safer than
unlocking by upfront because some BIOSes write private data to the
area beyond HPA limit. This was suggested by Ben Hutchings.

On mcp55, nIEN gets stuck once set and liteon blueray rom iHOS104-08
violates ATA specification and fails to set I on D2H Reg FIS if nIEN
is set when the command was issued. When the other party is following
the spec, both devices can work fine but when the two flaws are put
together, they can't talk to each other.
mcp55 has its own IRQ masking mechanism and there's no reason to mess
with nIEN in the first place. Fix it by dropping nIEN diddling from
nv_mcp55_freeze/thaw().
This was originally reported by Cengiz. Although Cengiz hasn't

fix. Even if Cengiz is experiencing different or additional problems,

transmission errors while high bandwidth transfer as reported in the
following bugzilla entry.

does but I can verify the issue is gone with the patch applied.

Grant patches added an of mach table to struct device_driver. However,
while he changed the macio device code to use that, he left the match
table pointer in struct macio_driver and didn't update drivers to use
the "new" one, thus breaking the probing.
This completes the change by moving all drivers to setup the "new"
one, removing all traces of the old one, and while at it (since it
changes the exact same locations), I also remove two other duplicates
from struct driver which are the name and owner fields.
