This patch relaxes the default SCSI DMA alignment from 512 bytes to 4
bytes. I remember from previous discussions that usb and firewire have
sector size alignment requirements, so I upped their alignments in the
respective slave allocs.
The reason for doing this is so that we don't get such a huge amount of
copy overhead in bio_copy_user() for udev. (basically all inquiries it
issues can now be directly mapped).

Since patch "fw-sbp2: use an own workqueue (fix system responsiveness)"
increased parallelism between fw-sbp2 and fw-core, it was possible that
fw-sbp2 didn't release the SCSI device when the FireWire device was
disconnected.
This happened if sbp2_update() ran during sbp2_login(), because a bus
reset occurred during sbp2_login(). The sbp2_login() work would [try
to] reschedule itself because it failed due to the bus reset, and it
would _not_ drop its reference on the target. However, sbp2_update()
would schedule sbp2_login() too before sbp2_login() rescheduled itself
and hence sbp2_update() would take an additional reference. And then
we would have one reference too many.
The fix is to _always_ drop the reference when leaving the sbp2_login()
work. If the sbp2_login() work reschedules itself, it takes a
reference, but only if it wasn't already rescheduled by sbp2_update().
Ditto in the sbp2_reconnect() work.
The resulting code is actually simpler than before: We _always_ take
a reference when successfully scheduling work. And we _always_ drop
a reference when leaving a workqueue job. No exceptions.

Firewire-sbp2 did very uncooperative things in the kernel's shared
workqueue: Sleeping until reception of management status from the
target for up to 2 seconds, and performing SCSI inquiry and all of the
setup of SCSI command set drivers via scsi_add_device. If there were
transient or permanent error conditions, this caused long blockage of
the kernel's events process, noticeable e.g. by blocked keyboard input.
We now allocate a workqueue process exclusive to fw-sbp2. As a side
effect, this also increases parallelism of fw-sbp2's login and reconnect
work versus fw-core's device discovery and device update work which is
performed in the shared workqueue.

On rare occasions, the ability to set one of the workaround flags at
runtime may save the day.
People who experience I/O errors with firewire-sbp2 while the old sbp2
driver worked for them should try workarounds=1 and report to the devel
mailinglist whether that improves things. Firewire-sbp2 defaults to the
SCSI stack's maximum transfer size per command, while sbp2 limits them
to 128 kBytes. Flag 1 accomplishes just that.

This handles the case where we get the status write before getting the
complete_transaction callback ("status write for unknown orb"). In
this case, we just assume that the initial orb pointer transaction
succeeded and finish the orb. To prevent the transaction callback
from touching freed memory, we ref-count the orb structures.

As far as I know, all CardBus FireWire 400 adapters have a maximum
payload of 1024 bytes which is less than the speed-dependent limit of
2048 bytes. Fw-sbp2 has to take the host adapter's limit into account.
This apparently fixes Juju's incompatibility with my CardBus cards, a
NEC based card and a VIA based card.

Add rudimentary check for the case that the page table overflows due to
merging of s/g elements by the IOMMU. This would have lead to
overwriting of arbitrary memory.
After this change I expect that an offending command will be
unsuccessfully retried until the scsi_device is taken offline by SCSI
core. It's a border case and not worth to implement a recovery
strategy.

Use a speed probe to determine the speed over 1394b buses and of nodes
which report a link speed less than their PHY speed.
Log the effective maximum speed of newly created nodes in dmesg.
Also, read the config ROM (except bus info block) at the maximum speed
rather than S100. This isn't a real optimization though because we
still only use quadlet read requests for the entire ROM.
The patch also adds support for S1600 and S3200, although such hardware
does not exist yet.
