ata_port has two different id fields - id and port_no. id is
system-wide 1-based unique id for the port while port_no is 0-based
host-wide port number. The former is primarily used to identify the
ATA port to the user in printk messages while the latter is used in
various places in libata core and LLDs to index the port inside the
host.
The two fields feel quite similar and sometimes ap->id is used in
place of ap->port_no, which is very difficult to spot. This patch
renames ap->id to ap->print_id to reduce the possibility of such bugs.
Some printk messages are adjusted such that id string (ata%u[.%u])
isn't printed twice and/or to use ata_*_printk() instead of hardcoded
id format.

We already have code that handles hotplug interrupt indications in ADMA
mode, this turns on the control flag that actually enables these interrupts.
Also fixes some cases in the same functions where a 16-bit register was read

The hardware provides us a notifier register that indicates what command
tags have completed. Use this to determine which CPBs to check, rather
than blindly checking all active CPBs. This should provide a minor
performance win, since if the controller has touched some of these
incomplete CPBs, accessing them will likely result in a cache miss.

This edits the taskfile setup to more closely match the way that libata

libata used disable pdev only on PM_EVENT_SUSPEND while re-enable pdev
unconditionally. This was okay before ref-counted pdev enable update
but it now makes the pdev pinned after swsusp cycle (enabled twice but
disabled only once) and devres sanity check whines about it.

This patch appears to solve some problems with commands timing out in

(or possibly vice versa). This is a rather ugly solution, but until we
know more about why this is needed, this is about all we can do.

ata_probe_ent_alloc() had a temporary hack such that devm_kzalloc()
was used for allocation if devres had been previously initialized on
the device; otherwise, plain kzalloc() was used. This was to make the
code useable from both the old and devres-aware libata drivers during
transition. This hack made ata_sas_port_alloc() unable to determine
how the probe_ent is allocated, causing double free in some cases.
Remove the now-unneeded hack and make ata_sas_port_alloc() use
devm_kfree().

Some debug output in the ADMA error_handler function was removed recently,
but it may be useful in certain cases, like NCQ commands timing out. Add it
back in, but make it a bit more intelligent so that it only prints if
command(s) are active and only prints the CPBs for those commands.
That way it won't spew at inappropriate times like suspend/resume.

I was trying to use HDIO_DRIVE_TASK for something today,
and discovered that the libata implementation does not copy
over the upper four LBA bits from args[6].
This is serious, as any tools using this ioctl would have their
commands applied to the wrong sectors on the drive, possibly resulting
in disk corruption.
Ideally, newer apps should use SG_IO/ATA_16 directly,
avoiding this bug. But with libata poised to displace drivers/ide,
better compatibility here is a must.
This patch fixes libata to use the upper four LBA bits passed
in from the ioctl.
The original drivers/ide implementation copies over all bits
except for the master/slave select bit. With this patch,
libata will copy only the four high-order LBA bits,
just in case there are assumptions elsewhere in libata (?).

The current EH speed down code is more of a proof that the EH
framework is capable of adjusting transfer speed in response to error.
This patch puts some intelligence into EH speed down sequence. The
rules are..
* If there have been more than three timeout, HSM violation or
unclassified DEV errors for known supported commands during last 10
mins, NCQ is turned off.
* If there have been more than three timeout or HSM violation for known
supported command, transfer mode is slowed down. If DMA is active,
it is first slowered by one grade (e.g. UDMA133->100). If that
doesn't help, it's slowered to 40c limit (UDMA33). If PIO is
active, it's slowered by one grade first. If that doesn't help,
PIO0 is forced. Note that this rule does not change transfer mode.
DMA is never degraded into PIO by this rule.
* If there have been more than ten ATA bus, timeout, HSM violation or
unclassified device errors for known supported commands && speeding
down DMA mode didn't help, the device is forced into PIO mode. Note
that this rule is considered only for PATA devices and is pretty
difficult to trigger.
One error can only trigger one rule at a time. After a rule is
triggered, error history is cleared such that the next speed down
happens only after some number of errors are accumulated. This makes
sense because now speed down is done in bigger stride.

* Move forcing device to PIO0 on device disable into
ata_dev_disable(). This makes both old and new EHs act the same
way.
* Speed down only PIO mode on probe failure. All commands used during
probing are PIO commands. There's no point in speeding down DMA.
* Retry at least once after -ENODEV. Some devices report garbled
IDENTIFY data after certain events. This shouldn't cause device
detach and re-attach.
* Rearrange EH failure path for simplicity.

Make ata_down_xfermask_limit() accept @sel instead of @force_pio0.
@sel selects how the xfermask limit will be adjusted. The following
selectors are defined.
* ATA_DNXFER_PIO : only speed down PIO
* ATA_DNXFER_DMA : only speed down DMA, don't cause transfer mode change
* ATA_DNXFER_40C : apply 40c cable limit
* ATA_DNXFER_FORCE_PIO : force PIO
* ATA_DNXFER_FORCE_PIO0 : force PIO0 (same as original with @force_pio0 == 1)
* ATA_DNXFER_ANY : same as original with @force_pio0 == 0
Currently, only ANY and FORCE_PIO0 are used to maintain the original
behavior. Other selectors will be used later to improve EH speed down
sequence.

This patch stops "modpost" from issuing erroneous modpost warnings on ARM
builds, which it's been doing since since maybe last summer. A canonical
example would be driver method table entries:
WARNING: <path> - Section mismatch: reference to .exit.text:<name>_remove
from .data after '$d' (at offset 0x4)
That "$d" symbol is generated by tools conformant with ARM ABI specs; in
this case it's a symbol **in the middle of** a "<name>_driver" struct.
The erroneous warnings appear to be issued because "modpost" whitelists
references from "<name>_driver" data into init and exit sections ... but
doesn't know should also include those "$d" mapping symbols, which are not
otherwise associated with "<name>_driver" symbols.
This patch prevents the modpost symbol lookup code from ever returning
those mapping symbols, so it will return a whitelisted symbol instead.
Then things work as expected.
Now to revert various code-bloating "fixes" that got merged because of this
modpost bug....

Various bug fixes to the at91rm9200 RTC:
- alarm: setalarm() should pay attention to the "enabled" flag
- init: cleaner handling of the wakeup flags, which cpu init should
really have set up. Doing it here is just a workaround.
- linkage: since the at91_rtc driver probe() routine is in the init
section, it should use platform_driver_probe() instead of leaving
that pointer around in the driver struct after init section removal.
- linkage: likewise, remove() belongs in the exit section.
Among other things, the init and alarm changes ensure that this driver
handles the new sysfs "wakealarm" attribute properly.

Some rtc-sa1100 bugfixes:
- The read_alarm() method reports the rtc_wkalrm.enabled field properly.
This patch is already in the handhelds.org tree.
- And the set_alarm() method now handles that flag correctly, rather than
making mismatched {en,dis}able_irq_wake() calls, which trigger runtime
warning messages. (Those calls are best made in suspend/resume methods.)
Note that while this SA1100/PXA RTC is fully capable of waking those ARM
processors from sleep states, that mechanism isn't properly supported on
either processor family, or in this driver. Some boards have board-specific
PM glue providing partial workarounds for the weak generic PM support.

This problem was identified and fixed some time ago by Jeff Moyer but it fell
through the cracks somehow.
It is possible that a user space application could remove and re-create a
directory during a request. To avoid returning a failure from lookup
incorrectly when our current dentry is unhashed we need to check if another
positive, hashed dentry matching this one exists and if so return it instead
of a fail.

Jeff Moyer has identified a race between mount and expire.
What happens is that during an expire the situation can arise that a directory
is removed and another lookup is done before the expire issues a completion
status to the kernel module. In this case, since the the lookup gets a new
dentry, it doesn't know that there is an expire in progress and when it posts
its mount request, matches the existing expire request and waits for its
completion. ENOENT is then returned to user space from lookup (as the dentry
passed in is now unhashed) without having performed the mount request.
The solution used here is to keep track of dentrys in this unhashed state and
reuse them, if possible, in order to preserve the flags. Additionally, this
infrastructure will provide the framework for the reintroduction of caching of
mount fails removed earlier in development.

nobh_prepare_write leaks data similarly to how simple_prepare_write did. Fix
by not marking the page uptodate until nobh_commit_write time. Again, this
could break weird use-cases, but none appear to exist in the tree.
We can safely remove the set_page_dirty, because as the comment says,
nobh_commit_write does set_page_dirty. If a filesystem wants to allocate
backing store for a page dirtied via mmap, page_mkwrite is the suggested
approach.

simple_prepare_write leaks uninitialised kernel data. This happens because
the it leaves an uninitialised "hole" over the part of the page that the
write is expected to go to. This is fine, but it then marks the page
uptodate, which means a concurrent read can come in and copy the
uninitialised memory into userspace before it written to.
Fix it by simply marking it uptodate in simple_commit_write instead, after
the hole has been filled in. This could theoretically break an fs that
uses simple_prepare_write and not simple_commit_write, and that relies on
the incorrect simple_prepare_write behaviour. Luckily, none of those
exists in the tree.
