This is a followup to a patch provided by Jack Wang on September 21 2011.
After increasing the CAN_QUEUE to 510 in pm8001 we discovered some performance
degredation from time to time. We needed to increase the MPI queue to
compensate and ensure we never hit that limit. We also needed to double
the margin to support event and administrivial commands that take from
the pool resulting in an occasional largely unproductive command completion
with soft error to the caller when the command pool is overloaded temporarily.

libsas ata error handling is already async but this does not help the
scan case. Move initial link recovery out from under host->scan_mutex,
and delay synchronization with eh until after all port probe/recovery
work has been queued.
Device ordering is maintained with scan order by still calling
sas_rphy_add() in order of domain discovery.
Since we now scan the domain list when invoking libata-eh we need to be
careful to check for fully initialized ata ports.

Per commit 3e4ec344 "libata: kill ATA_FLAG_DISABLED" needing to set
ATA_DEV_NONE is a holdover from before libsas converted to the
"new-style" ata-eh.

libsas handles:
1/ limiting ata scanning to lun0
2/ changes to /sys/block/<sdX>/device/queue_depth for ata devices
libata handles turning off ncq globally via kernel command line
(libata.force=noncq) or sysfs (echo 1 >
/sys/block/<sdX>/device/queue_depth). A lldd specific compile option is
not necessary.

pm8001 manages its own list of pending works and cancel them on device
free. It is unnecessarily complex and has a race condition - the
works are canceled but not synced, so the work could still be running
during and after the data structures are freed.
This patch simplifies workqueue usage.
* A driver specific workqueue pm8001_wq is created to serve these
work items.
* To avoid confusion, the "queue" suffixes are dropped from work items
and functions.
* Delayed queueing was never used. pm8001_work now uses work_struct
instead.
* The driver no longer keeps track of pending works. All pm8001_works
are queued to pm8001_wq and the workqueue is flushed as necessary.
flush_scheduled_work() usage is removed during conversion.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
