Enable use of the "all ports" IRQ coalescing optimization
for GEN_II / GEN_IIE chips that have dual host-controllers (8-ports).
Currently only the 6081 chip qualifies, but other chips may come along someday.
Rather than each half of the chip having to satisfy a local set of coalescing thresholds,
use of this feature groups all ports together under a single set of thresholds.

Add IRQ coalescing to sata_mv (off by default).
This feature can reduce total interrupt overhead for RAID setups
in some situations, by deferring the interrupt signal until one or both of:
a) a specified io_count (completed SATA commands) is achieved, or
b) a specified time interval elapses after an IO completion.
For now, module parameters are used to set the irq_coalescing_io_count
and irq_coalescing_usecs (timeout) globally. These may eventually
be supplemented with sysfs attributes, so that thresholds can be set
on-the-fly and on a per-chip (or even per-host_controller) basis.

This also gets rid of any need for mv_mode_filter().
Using basic DMA on GEN_IIE requires setting an undocumented

To avoid a performance penalty when switching modes,
we cache the register in port_priv, as already done for other regs.

There's no need to turn off intx explicitly on msi enable. This is
automatically handled by pci. Drop it.
This might be needed on machines if the BIOS turns intx off during
boot. However, there's no evidence of such behavior for ahci and
the only such case seems to be ICH5 PATA according to ata_piix.
Also, given the way ahci operates, it's highly unlikely BIOS ever
disables IRQ for the controller. However, as this change has slight
possibility of introducing failure, please schedule it for #upstream.

that the port is being frozen at initialisation state and thawed right
afterwards, then the functions were not called anymore. Dropping the

some files in it (in parallel) and finally removing them and unmounting

The biggest difference between rb532_pata_data_xfer() and

Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12208
Subject : uml is very slow on 2.6.28 host
This turned out to be not a scheduler regression, but an already
existing problem in ptrace being triggered by subtle scheduler
changes.
The problem is this:
- task A is ptracing task B
- task B stops on a trace event
- task A is woken up and preempts task B
- task A calls ptrace on task B, which does ptrace_check_attach()
- this calls wait_task_inactive(), which sees that task B is still on the runq
- task A goes to sleep for a jiffy
- ...
Since UML does lots of the above sequences, those jiffies quickly add
up to make it slow as hell.
This patch solves this by not rescheduling in read_unlock() after
ptrace_stop() has woken up the tracer.
Thanks to Oleg Nesterov and Ingo Molnar for the feedback.

This patch fixes the issue by removing offending (and somewhat
duplicate) code from init_phy() routine, and changes _probe()
function to use uec_mdio_bus_name().
Also, since we fully construct phy_bus_id in the _probe() routine,
we no longer need ->phy_address and ->mdio_bus fields in
ucc_geth_info structure.
I wish the patch would be a bit shorter, but it seems like the only
way to fix the issue in a sane way. Luckily, the patch has been
tested with real PHYs and fixed-link, so no further regressions
expected.

This fixes a locking bug in the dm9000 driver. It calls
request_irq() without setting IRQF_DISABLED ... which is
correct for handlers that support IRQ sharing, since that
behavior is not guaranteed for shared IRQs. However, its
IRQ handler then wrongly assumes that IRQs are blocked.
So the fix just uses the right spinlock primitives in the
IRQ handler.
NOTE: this is a classic example of the type of bug which
lockdep currently masks by forcibly setting IRQF_DISABLED
on IRQ handlers that did not request that flag.

When allocating the memory used to store the eCryptfs header contents, a
single, zeroed page was being allocated with get_zeroed_page().
However, the size of an eCryptfs header is either PAGE_CACHE_SIZE or
ECRYPTFS_MINIMUM_HEADER_EXTENT_SIZE (8192), whichever is larger, and is
stored in the file's private_data->crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front
field.
ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents() was using
num_header_bytes_at_front to decide how many bytes should be written to
the lower filesystem for the file header. Unfortunately, at least 8K
was being written from the page, despite the chance of the single,
zeroed page being smaller than 8K. This resulted in random areas of
kernel memory being written between the 0x1000 and 0x1FFF bytes offsets
in the eCryptfs file headers if PAGE_SIZE was 4K.
This patch allocates a variable number of pages, calculated with
num_header_bytes_at_front, and passes the number of allocated pages
along to ecryptfs_write_metadata_to_contents().
Thanks to Florian Streibelt for reporting the data leak and working with
me to find the problem. 2.6.28 is the only kernel release with this

This fixes a regression introduced when we switched to using the core
pci_set_power_state(). The chip seems to need the state to be written
over and over again until it sticks, so we do that.
Note that the code is a bit blunt, without timeout, etc... but that's
pretty much because I put back in there the code exactly as it used to
be before the regression. I still add a call to pci_set_power_state()
at the end so that ACPI gets called appropriately on x86.
