The controller status polling was added to preemptively reset a failed controller. This early detection would allow commands that would normally timeout a chance for a retry, or find broken links when the platform didn't support hotplug. This once-per-second MMIO read, however, created more problems than it solves. This often races with PCIe Hotplug events that required complicated syncing between work queues, frequently triggered PCIe Completion Timeout errors that also lead to fatal machine checks, and unnecessarily disrupts low power modes by running on idle controllers. This patch removes the watchdog timer, and instead checks controller health only on an IO timeout when we have a reason to believe something is wrong. If the controller is failed, the driver will disable immediately and request scheduling a reset.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
