This patch implements ata_exec_internal() function which performs
libata internal command execution. Previously, this was done by each
user by manually initializing a qc, issueing it, waiting for its
completion and handling errors. In addition to obvious code
factoring, using ata_exec_internal() fixes the following bugs.
* qc not freed on issue failure
* ap->qactive clearing could race with the next internal command
* race between timeout handling and irq
* ignoring error condition not represented in tf->status
Also, qc & hardware are not accessed anymore once it's completed,
making internal commands more conformant with general semantics.
ata_exec_internal() also makes it easy to issue internal commands from
multiple threads if that becomes necessary.
This patch only implements ata_exec_internal(). A following patch

Use ata_pad_{alloc,free} in two drivers, to factor out common code.
Add ata_pad_{alloc,free} to two other drivers, which needed the padding
but had not been updated.
A lot of power packed into a little patch.
This change eliminates the sharing between our controller-wide spinlock
and the SCSI core's Scsi_Host lock. As the locking in libata was
already highly compartmentalized, always referencing our own lock, and
never scsi_host::host_lock.
As a side effect, this change eliminates a deadlock from calling
scsi_finish_command() while inside our spinlock.
Integrate ata_exec() and ata_tf_to_host() into their only caller,
ata_bus_edd().
Rename ata_tf_to_host_nolock() to ata_tf_to_host().
This makes locking a bit easier to review, and may help pave the way for
future changes.
ata_pci_init_one() receives an array of struct ata_port_info. Recent
updates to the code had always obtained port information from
array element 0, rather than array element N.
Change to avoid hardcoding port_info[0], thereby restoring proper
hardware information to secondary legacy ports.
The second argument to ata_qc_complete() was being used for two
purposes: communicate the ATA Status register to the completion
function, and indicate an error. On legacy PCI IDE hardware, the latter
is often implicit in the former. On more modern hardware, the driver
often completely emulated a Status register value, passing ATA_ERR as an
indication that something went wrong.
Now that previous code changes have eliminated the need to use drv_stat
arg to communicate the ATA Status register value, we can convert it to a
mask of possible error classes.
This will lead to more flexible error handling in the future.
This patch uses sg_set_buf/sg_init_one in some places where it was
duplicated.

This redoes the n_ports logic I proposed before as a bitmask.
ata_pci_init_native_mode is now used with a mask allowing for mixed mode
stuff later on. ata_pci_init_legacy_port is called with port number and
does one port now not two. Instead it is called twice by the ata init
logic which cleans both of them up.
There are stil limits in the original code left over
- IRQ/port mapping for legacy mode should be arch specific values
- You can have one legacy mode IDE adapter per PCI root bridge on some systems
- Doesn't handle mixed mode devices yet (but is now a lot closer to it)
Replace SCSI's legacy "bang at the door" method of probing with one
directly controlled by the underlying ATA transport layer.

[PATCH libata-dev-2.6:upstream] implement ata_poll_qc_complete and use it in polling functions
Previously, libata polling functions turned irq back on and completed
qc commands without holding host lock. This creates a race condition
between the polling task and interrupts from other ports on the same
host set or spurious interrupt from itself.
This patch implements ata_poll_qc_complete which enables irq and
completes qc atomically and convert all polling functions.
Note: atapi_packet_task() didn't use to turn irq back on or clear
ATA_FLAG_NOINTR on error exits. This patch makes it use
ata_poll_qc_complete which does both.
Note: With this change, ALL invocations of ata_qc_complete() are now
done under host_set lock.

Interrupts from devices sharing the same IRQ could cause
ata_host_intr to finish commands being processed by atapi_packet_task
if the commands are using ATA_PROT_ATAPI_NODATA or ATA_PROT_ATAPI_DMA
protocol. This is because libata interrupt handler is unaware that
interrupts are not expected during that period. This patch adds
ATA_FLAG_NOINTR flag to tell the interrupt handler that we're not
expecting interrupts.
Note that once proper HSM is implemented for interrupt-driven PIO,
this should be merged into it and this flag will be removed.
ahci.c is a different kind of beast, so it's left alone.
* The following drivers use ata_qc_issue_prot and ata_interrupt, so
changes in libata core will do.
ata_piix sata_sil sata_svw sata_via sata_sis sata_uli
* The following drivers use ata_qc_issue_prot and custom intr handler.
They need this change to work correctly.
sata_nv sata_vsc
* The following drivers use custom issue function and intr handler.

change is irrelevant, updated for consistency and to avoid later
mistakes.

Jens Axboe pointed out that the iounmap() call in libata was occurring
too early, and some drivers (ahci, probably others) were using ioremap'd
memory after it had been unmapped.
The patch should address that problem by way of improving the libata
driver API:
* move ->host_stop() call after all ->port_stop() calls have occurred.
* create default helper function ata_host_stop(), and move iounmap()
call there.
* add ->host_stop_prewalk() hook, use it in sata_qstor.c (hi Mark).
sata_qstor appears to require the host-stop-before-port-stop ordering
that existed prior to applying the attached patch.
When testing ATAPI PIO data transfer on the ppc64 platform, __atapi_pio_bytes() got zero when
sg_dma_len() is used. I checked the <asm-ppc64/scatterlish.h>, the struct scatterlist is defined as:
struct scatterlist {
struct page *page;
unsigned int offset;
unsigned int length;
/* For TCE support */
u32 dma_address;
u32 dma_length;
};
#define sg_dma_address(sg) ((sg)->dma_address)
#define sg_dma_len(sg) ((sg)->dma_length)
So, if the scatterlist is not DMA mapped, sg_dma_len() will return zero on ppc64.
The same problem should occur on the x86-64 platform.
On the i386 platform, sg_dma_len() returns sg->length, that's why the problem does not occur on an i386.
Changes:
- Use sg->length if the scatterlist is not DMA mapped (yet).

Problem:
During the libata CD-ROM stress test, sometimes the "BUG: timeout
without command" error is seen.
Root cause:
Unexpected interrupt occurs after the ata_qc_complete() is called,
but before the SCSI error handler. The interrupt handler is invoked
before the SCSI error handler, and it clears the command by calling
ata_qc_complete() again. Later when the SCSI error handler is run,
the ata_queued_cmd is already gone, causing the "BUG: timeout without
command" error.
Changes:
- Use the ATA_QCFLAG_ACTIVE flag to prevent the interrupt handler
from completing the command twice, before the scsi_error_handler.
