The task_collector mode (or "latency_injector", (C) Dan Willians) is an
optional I/O path in libsas that queues up scsi commands instead of
directly sending it to the hardware. It generall increases latencies
to in the optiomal case slightly reduce mmio traffic to the hardware.
Only the obsolete aic94xx driver and the mvsas driver allowed to use
it without recompiling the kernel, and most drivers didn't support it
at all.
Remove the giant blob of code to allow better optimizations for scsi-mq
in the future.

sas_discover_sata() notifies lldds of sata devices twice. Once to allow
the 'identify' to be sent, and a second time to allow aic94xx (the only
libsas driver that cares about sata_dev.identify) to setup NCQ
parameters before the device becomes known to the midlayer. Replace
this double notification and intervening 'identify' with an explicit
->lldd_ata_set_dmamode notification. With this change all ata internal
commands are issued by libata, so we no longer need sas_issue_ata_cmd().
The data from the identify command only needs to be cached in one
location so ata_device.id replaces domain_device.sata_dev.identify.

[jejb: fixed up a ton of missed conversions.
All of you are on notice this has happened, driver trees will now
need to be rebased]

If the aic94xx chip doesn't have a SAS address in the chip's flash memory,
make libsas get one for us.

Currently aic94xx has no exported I_T_nexus_reset function. This is a
bit of a huge problem, since sas_ata relies on this function to
perform an ATA phy reset and also it means that if abort fails, we
really have no bigger hammer to hit everything with.
Plumb in the I_T_nexus_reset by quiescing the sequencer, sending the
correct phy reset (link for ATA and hard for SAS) and then carefully
resuming the sequencer again.

Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.
The patch was generated using the following script:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
#
set -e
for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
quilt add $file
sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
mv /tmp/$$ $file
quilt refresh
done
The script was run like this
sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"

This patch implements the ability to set the minimum and maximum
linkrates for both libsas (for expanders) and aic94xx (for the host
phys). It also tidies up the setting of the hardware min and max to
make sure they're updated when the expander emits a change broadcast.
