Currently reset methods are not specified directly in the
ata_port_operations table. If a LLD wants to use custom reset
methods, it should construct and use a error_handler which uses those
reset methods. It's done this way for two reasons.
First, the ops table already contained too many methods and adding
four more of them would noticeably increase the amount of necessary
boilerplate code all over low level drivers.
Second, as ->error_handler uses those reset methods, it can get
confusing. ie. By overriding ->error_handler, those reset ops can be
made useless making layering a bit hazy.
Now that ops table uses inheritance, the first problem doesn't exist
anymore. The second isn't completely solved but is relieved by
providing default values - most drivers can just override what it has
implemented and don't have to concern itself about higher level
callbacks. In fact, there currently is no driver which actually
modifies error handling behavior. Drivers which override
->error_handler just wraps the standard error handler only to prepare
the controller for EH. I don't think making ops layering strict has
any noticeable benefit.
This patch makes ->prereset, ->softreset, ->hardreset, ->postreset and
their PMP counterparts propoer ops. Default ops are provided in the
base ops tables and drivers are converted to override individual reset
methods instead of creating custom error_handler.
* ata_std_error_handler() doesn't use sata_std_hardreset() if SCRs
aren't accessible. sata_promise doesn't need to use separate
error_handlers for PATA and SATA anymore.
* softreset is broken for sata_inic162x and sata_sx4. As libata now
always prefers hardreset, this doesn't really matter but the ops are
forced to NULL using ATA_OP_NULL for documentation purpose.
* pata_hpt374 needs to use different prereset for the first and second
PCI functions. This used to be done by branching from
hpt374_error_handler(). The proper way to do this is to use
separate ops and port_info tables for each function. Converted.

libata core layer doesn't care about sht or ->irq_handler. Those are
only of interest to the LLD during initialization. This is confusing
and has caused several drivers to have duplicate unused initializers
for these fields.
Currently only sata_nv uses these fields. Make sata_nv use
->private_data, which is supposed to carry LLD-specific information,
instead and kill ->sht and ->irq_handler. nv_pi_priv structure is
defined and struct literals are used to initialize private_data.
Notational overhead is negligible.

port_info->private_data is currently used for two purposes - to record
private data about the port_info or to specify host->private_data to
use when allocating ata_host.
This overloading is confusing and counter-intuitive in that
port_info->private_data becomes host->private_data instead of
port->private_data. In addition, port_info and host don't correspond
to each other 1-to-1. Currently, the first non-NULL
port_info->private_data is used.
This patch makes port_info->private_data just be what it is -
private_data for the port_info where LLD can jot down extra info.
libata no longer sets host->private_data to the first non-NULL
port_info->private_data, @host_priv argument is added to
ata_pci_init_one() instead. LLDs which use ata_pci_init_one() can use
this argument to pass in pointer to host private data. LLDs which
don't should use init-register model anyway and can initialize
host->private_data directly.
Adding @host_priv instead of using init-register model for LLDs which
use ata_pci_init_one() is suggested by Alan Cox.

ata_pci_init_one() is the only function which uses ops->irq_handler
and pi->sht. Other initialization functions take the same information
as arguments. This causes confusion and duplicate unused entries in
structures.
Make ata_pci_init_one() take sht as an argument and use ata_interrupt
implicitly. All current users use ata_interrupt and if different irq
handler is necessary open coding ata_pci_init_one() using
ata_prepare_sff_host() and ata_activate_sff_host can be done under ten
lines including error handling and driver which requires custom
interrupt handler is likely to require custom initialization anyway.
As ata_pci_init_one() was the last user of ops->irq_handler, this
patch also kills the field.

libata lets low level drivers build ata_port_operations table and
register it with libata core layer. This allows low level drivers
high level of flexibility but also burdens them with lots of
boilerplate entries.
This becomes worse for drivers which support related similar
controllers which differ slightly. They share most of the operations
except for a few. However, the driver still needs to list all
operations for each variant. This results in large number of
duplicate entries, which is not only inefficient but also error-prone
as it becomes very difficult to tell what the actual differences are.
This duplicate boilerplates all over the low level drivers also make
updating the core layer exteremely difficult and error-prone. When
compounded with multi-branched development model, it ends up
accumulating inconsistencies over time. Some of those inconsistencies
cause immediate problems and fixed. Others just remain there dormant
making maintenance increasingly difficult.
To rectify the problem, this patch implements ata_port_operations
inheritance. To allow LLDs to easily re-use their own ops tables
overriding only specific methods, this patch implements poor man's
class inheritance. An ops table has ->inherits field which can be set
to any ops table as long as it doesn't create a loop. When the host
is started, the inheritance chain is followed and any operation which
isn't specified is taken from the nearest ancestor which has it
specified. This operation is called finalization and done only once
per an ops table and the LLD doesn't have to do anything special about
it other than making the ops table non-const such that libata can
update it.
libata provides four base ops tables lower drivers can inherit from -
base, sata, pmp, sff and bmdma. To avoid overriding these ops
accidentaly, these ops are declared const and LLDs should always
inherit these instead of using them directly.
After finalization, all the ops table are identical before and after
the patch except for setting .irq_handler to ata_interrupt in drivers
which didn't use to. The .irq_handler doesn't have any actual effect
and the field will soon be removed by later patch.
* sata_sx4 is still using old style EH and currently doesn't take
advantage of ops inheritance.

* Removed unnecessary sht initializations port_info's.
* Removed onsolete scsi device suspend/resume callbacks from

ata_bmdma_irq_clear with ata_noop_irq_clear.
* pata_platform sets port_start to ata_dummy_ret0. port_start can

->irq_clear() is used to clear IRQ bit of a SFF controller and isn't
useful for drivers which don't use libata SFF HSM implementation.
However, it's a required callback and many drivers implement their own
noop version as placeholder. This patch implements ata_noop_irq_clear
and use it to replace those custom placeholders.
Also, SFF drivers which don't support BMDMA don't need to use
ata_bmdma_irq_clear(). It becomes noop if BMDMA address isn't
initialized. Convert them to use ata_noop_irq_clear().

PCI device should be powered up or powered up before its PCI regsiters
are accessed. Although PCI configuration register access is allowed
in D3hot, PCI device is free to reset its status when transiting from
D3hot to D0 causing configuration data to change.
Many libata SFF drivers which use ata_pci_init_one() read and update
configuration registers before calling ata_pci_init_one() which
enables the PCI device. Also, in resume paths, some drivers access
registers without resuming the PCI device.
This patch adds a call to pcim_enable_device() in init path if
register is accessed before calling ata_pci_init_one() and make resume
paths first resume PCI devices, access PCI configuration regiters then
resume ATA host.

ata_ehi_schedule_probe() was created to hide details of link-resuming
reset magic. Now that all the softreset workarounds are gone,
scheduling probe is very simple - set probe_mask and request RESET.
Kill ata_ehi_schedule_probe() and open code it. This also increases
consistency as ata_ehi_schedule_probe() couldn't cover individual
device probings so they were open-coded even when the helper existed.
While at it, define ATA_ALL_DEVICES as mask of all possible devices on
a link and always use it when requesting probe on link level for
simplicity and consistency. Setting extra bits in the probe_mask
doesn't hurt anybody.

Some controllers can't reliably record the initial D2H FIS after SATA
link is brought online for whatever reason. Advanced controllers
which don't have traditional TF register based interface often have
this problem as they don't really have the TF registers to update
while the controller and link are being initialized.
SKIP_D2H_BSY works around the problem by skipping the wait for device
readiness before issuing SRST, so for such controllers libata issues
SRST blindly and hopes for the best.
Now that libata defaults to hardreset, this workaround is no longer
necessary. For controllers which have support for hardreset, SRST is
never issued by itself. It is only issued as follow-up SRST for
device classification and PMP initialization, so there's no need to
wait for it from prereset.

ATA_EHI_RESUME_LINK has two functions - promote reset to hardreset if
ATA_LFLAG_HRST_TO_RESUME is set and preventing EH from shortcutting
reset action when probing is requested. The former is gone now and
the latter can easily be achieved by making EH to perform at least one
reset if reset is requested, which also makes more sense than
depending on RESUME_LINK flag.
As ATA_EHI_RESUME_LINK was the only EHI reset modifier, this also
kills reset modifier handling.

When both soft and hard resets are available, libata preferred
softreset till now. The logic behind it was to be softer to devices;
however, this doesn't really help much. Rationales for the change:
* BIOS may freeze lock certain things during boot and softreset can't
unlock those. This by itself is okay but during operation PHY event
or other error conditions can trigger hardreset and the device may
end up with different configuration.
For example, after a hardreset, previously unlockable HPA can be
unlocked resulting in different device size and thus revalidation
failure. Similar condition can occur during or after resume.
* Certain ATAPI devices require hardreset to recover after certain
error conditions. On PATA, this is done by issuing the DEVICE RESET
command. On SATA, COMRESET has equivalent effect. The problem is
that DEVICE RESET needs its own execution protocol.
For SFF controllers with bare TF access, it can be easily
implemented but more advanced controllers (e.g. ahci and sata_sil24)
require specialized implementations. Simply using hardreset solves
the problem nicely.
* COMRESET initialization sequence is the norm in SATA land and many
SATA devices don't work properly if only SRST is used. For example,
some PMPs behave this way and libata works around by always issuing
hardreset if the host supports PMP.
Like the above example, libata has developed a number of mechanisms
aiming to promote softreset to hardreset if softreset is not going
to work. This approach is time consuming and error prone.
Also, note that, dependingon how you read the specs, it could be
argued that PMP fan-out ports require COMRESET to start operation.
In fact, all the PMPs on the market except one don't work properly
if COMRESET is not issued to fan-out ports after PMP reset.
* COMRESET is an integral part of SATA connection and any working
device should be able to handle COMRESET properly. After all, it's
the way to signal hardreset during reboot. This is the most used
and recommended (at least by the ahci spec) method of resetting
devices.
So, this patch makes libata prefer hardreset over softreset by making
the following changes.
* Rename ATA_EH_RESET_MASK to ATA_EH_RESET and use it whereever
ATA_EH_{SOFT|HARD}RESET used to be used. ATA_EH_{SOFT|HARD}RESET is
now only used to tell prereset whether soft or hard reset will be
issued.
* Strip out now unneeded promote-to-hardreset logics from
ata_eh_reset(), ata_std_prereset(), sata_pmp_std_prereset() and
other places.
