At the 2.6.12 timeframe ipmi_si_intf.c was patched to provide default
register spacings in try_init_acpi() if the register spacing was set to
zero, similar to code in other routines.
Unfortunately, another patch was simultaneously added that exits early from
try_init_acpi() if the register spacings are set to zero, circumventing the
new defaults. This patch removes the early exit code and some incorrect
comments that aren't present in other common code snippets.

Clean up the code responsible for the on-disk mirror logs by using the
set_le_bit test_le_bit functions of ext2. That makes the BE machines keep the
bitmap internally in LE order - it does mean you can't use any other type of
operations on the bitmap words but that looks to be OK in this instance. The
efficiency tradeoff is very minimal as you would expect for something that
ext2 uses.
This allows us to remove bits_to_core(), bits_to_disk() and log->disk_bits.
Also increment the mirror log disk version transparently to avoid sharing with
older kernels that suffered from the 64-bit BE bug.

[PATCH] fuse: fix async read for legacy filesystems
While asynchronous reads mean a performance improvement in most cases, if
the filesystem assumed that reads are synchronous, then async reads may
degrade performance (filesystem may receive reads out of order, which can
confuse it's own readahead logic).
With sshfs a 1.5 to 4 times slowdown can be measured.
There's also a need for userspace filesystems to know whether asynchronous
reads are supported by the kernel or not.
To achive these, negotiate in the INIT request whether async reads will be
used and the maximum readahead value. Update interface version to 7.6
If userspace uses a version earlier than 7.6, then disable async reads, and
set maximum readahead value to the maximum read size, as done in previous
versions.
