Commands sent to ATAPI tape drives via the SCSI generic (sg) driver are
limited in the amount of data that they can transfer by the max_sectors
value. The max_sectors value is currently calculated according to the
command set for disk drives, which doesn't apply to tape drives. The
default max_sectors value of 256 limits ATAPI tape drive commands to
128 KB. This patch against 2.6.24-rc1 increases the max_sectors value
for tape drives to 65535, which permits tape drive commands to transfer
just under 32 MB.
Tested with a SuperMicro PDSME motherboard, AHCI, and a Sony SDX-570V
SATA tape drive.
Note that some of the chipset drivers also set their own max_sectors
value, which may override the value set in libata-core. I don't have
any of these chipsets to test, so I didn't go messing with them. Also,
ATAPI devices other than tape drives may benefit from similar changes,
but I have only tape drives and disk drives to test.

Implement ATA_QCFLAG_QUIET which indicates that there's no need to
report if the command fails with AC_ERR_DEV and set it for passthrough
commands.
Combined with previous changes, this now makes device errors for all
direct commands reported directly to the issuer without going through
EH actions and reporting.
Note that EH is still invoked after non-IO device errors to determine
the nature of the error and resume command execution (some controller
requires special care after error to continue). It just performs
default maintenance after error, examines what's going on, realizes
that it's none of its business and reports the command failure without
logging any error messages.

This reverts commit 2e1c49db4c.
First off, testing in Fedora has shown it to cause boot failures,
bisected down by Martin Ebourne, and reported by Dave Jobes. So the
commit will likely be reverted in the 2.6.23 stable kernels.
Secondly, in the 2.6.24 model, x86-64 has now grown support for
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, which disables the relevant code anyway, so while the
bug is not visible any more, it's become invisible due to the code just
being irrelevant and no longer enabled on the only architecture that
this ever affected.

Device Initiated Power Management, which is defined
in SATA 2.5 can be enabled for disks which support it.
This patch enables DIPM when the user sets the link
power management policy to "min_power".
Additionally, libata drivers can define a function
(enable_pm) that will perform hardware specific actions to
enable whatever power management policy the user set up
for Host Initiated Power management (HIPM).
This power management policy will be activated after all
disks have been enumerated and intialized. Drivers should
also define disable_pm, which will turn off link power
management, but not change link power management policy.
Documentation/scsi/link_power_management_policy.txt has additional
information.

For the locking to work, only the tag map and tag bit map may be shared
(incidentally, I was just explaining this to Nick yesterday, but I
apparently didn't review the code well enough myself). But we also share
the busy list! The busy_list must be queue private, or we need a
block_queue_tag covering lock as well.
So we have to move the busy_list to the queue. This'll work fine, and
it'll actually also fix a problem with blk_queue_invalidate_tags() which
will invalidate tags across all shared queues. This is a bit confusing,
the low level driver should call it for each queue seperately since
otherwise you cannot kill tags on just a single queue for eg a hard
drive that stops responding. Since the function has no callers
currently, it's not an issue.

On certain device/controller combination, 0xff status is asserted
after reset and doesn't get cleared during 150ms post-reset wait. As
0xff status is interpreted as no device (for good reasons), this can
lead to misdetection on such cases.
This patch implements ata_wait_after_reset() which replaces the 150ms
sleep and waits upto ATA_TMOUT_FF_WAIT if status is 0xff.
ATA_TMOUT_FF_WAIT is currently 800ms which is enough for
HHD424020F7SV00 to get detected but not enough for Quantum GoVault
drive which is known to take upto 2s.
Without parallel probing, spending 2s on 0xff port would incur too
much delay on ata_piix's which use 0xff to indicate empty port and
doesn't have SCR register, so GoVault needs to wait till parallel
probing.

ATA devices in SLEEP mode don't respond to any commands. SRST is
necessary to wake it up. Till now, when a command is issued to a
device in SLEEP mode, the command times out, which makes EH reset the
device and retry the command after that, causing a long delay.
This patch makes libata track SLEEP state and issue SRST automatically
if a command is about to be issued to a device in SLEEP.
