9deb343189 ahci: use BIOS date in broken_suspend list
HP is recycling both DMI_PRODUCT_NAME and DMI_BIOS_VERSION making
ahci_broken_suspend() trigger for later products which are not
affected by the original problems.  Match BIOS date instead of version
and add references to bko's so that full information can be found
easier later.

bko#15481 shows that we're missing some NVIDIA ahci PCI IDs.  Peer
Chen confirms that IDs 0x580-0x58f are reserved for cases where Linux
ID option is selected in the BIOS and are only used for mcp65-73.  Add

a55ab496ea sata_via: Delay on vt6420 when starting ATAPI DMA write
When writing a disc on certain lite-on dvd-writers (also rebadged
as optiarc/LG/...) connected to a vt6420, the ATAPI CDB ends
up in the datastream and on the disc, causing silent corruption.
Delaying between sending the CDB and starting DMA seems to
prevent this.

I do not know if there are burners that do not suffer from
this, but the patch should be safe for those as well.

There are many reports of this issue, but AFAICT no solution was
found before. For example:

This is similar change as commit 60c3be3 for ata_piix host driver
and while pata_atiixp doesn't enable parallel scan yet the race
could probably also be triggered by requesting re-scanning of both

02d1d6160f sata_via: Correctly setup PIO/DMA for pata slave on vt6421.
Before only the timings for master were set. Datasheet can be found
here: ftp://ftp.vtbridge.org/Docs/Storage/DS_VT6421A_100_CCPL.PDF
Surprisingly, a slave drive works without this patch. According to the
datasheet, the controller by default derives the DMA mode from the
Set Features command issued to a drive. Not sure about the PIO
timings, though. The real problem is that the timings for the master
effectively are the ones tuned for the slave. If these support
different UDMA-settings, there is trouble, especially when the slave
supports a higher UDMA than the master.

Anyhow, using the same mechanism for both master and slave seems like
a good idea.

27943620cb libata: implement spurious irq handling for SFF and apply it to piix
Traditional IDE interface sucks in that it doesn't have a reliable IRQ
pending bit, so if the controller raises IRQ while the driver is
expecting it not to, the IRQ won't be cleared and eventually the IRQ
line will be killed by interrupt subsystem.  Some controllers have
non-standard mechanism to indicate IRQ pending so that this condition
can be detected and worked around.

This patch adds an optional operation ->sff_irq_check() which will be
called for each port from the ata_sff_interrupt() if an unexpected
interrupt is received.  If the operation returns %true,
->sff_check_status() and ->sff_irq_clear() will be cleared for the
port.  Note that this doesn't mark the interrupt as handled so it
won't prevent IRQ subsystem from killing the IRQ if this mechanism
fails to clear the spurious IRQ.

This patch also implements ->sff_irq_check() for ata_piix.  Note that
this adds slight overhead to shared IRQ operation as IRQs which are
destined for other controllers will trigger extra register accesses to
check whether IDE interrupt is pending but this solves rare screaming
IRQ cases and for some curious reason also helps weird BIOS related
glitch on Samsung n130 as reported in bko#14314.

  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14314

* piix_base_ops dropped as suggested by Sergei.

* Spurious IRQ detection doesn't kick in anymore if polling qc is in
  progress.  This provides less protection but some controllers have
  possible data corruption issues if the wrong register is accessed
  while a command is in progress.

8a78362c4e block: Consolidate phys_segment and hw_segment limits
Except for SCSI no device drivers distinguish between physical and
hardware segment limits.  Consolidate the two into a single segment
limit.

086fa5ff08 block: Rename blk_queue_max_sectors to blk_queue_max_hw_sectors
The block layer calling convention is blk_queue_<limit name>.
blk_queue_max_sectors predates this practice, leading to some confusion.
Rename the function to appropriately reflect that its intended use is to
set max_hw_sectors.

Also introduce a temporary wrapper for backwards compability.  This can
be removed after the merge window is closed.

453d3131ec ahci: disable FPDMA auto-activate optimization on NVIDIA AHCI
Mike Cui reported that his system with an NVIDIA MCP79 (aka MCP7A)
chipset stopped working with 2.6.32. The problem appears to be that
2.6.32 now enables the FPDMA auto-activate optimization in the ahci
driver. The drive works fine with this enabled on an Intel AHCI so
this appears to be a chipset bug.  Since MCP79 is a fairly recent
NVIDIA chipset and we don't have any info on whether any other NVIDIA
chipsets have this issue, disable FPDMA AA optimization on all NVIDIA
AHCI controllers for now.

Should address http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14922

2d68b7fe55 [libata] Call flush_dcache_page after PIO data transfers in libata-sff.c
flush_dcache_page() must be called after (!ATA_TFLAG_WRITE) the
data copying to avoid D-cache aliasing with user space or I-D cache
coherency issues (when reading data from an ATA device using PIO,
the kernel dirties the D-cache but there is no flush_dcache_page()
required on Harvard architectures).
