sata_via: Correctly setup PIO/DMA for pata slave on vt6421.
Before only the timings for master were set. Datasheet can be found
here: ftp://ftp.vtbridge.org/Docs/Storage/DS_VT6421A_100_CCPL.PDF
Surprisingly, a slave drive works without this patch. According to the
datasheet, the controller by default derives the DMA mode from the
Set Features command issued to a drive. Not sure about the PIO
timings, though. The real problem is that the timings for the master
effectively are the ones tuned for the slave. If these support
different UDMA-settings, there is trouble, especially when the slave
supports a higher UDMA than the master.
Anyhow, using the same mechanism for both master and slave seems like
a good idea.

libata: implement spurious irq handling for SFF and apply it to piix
Traditional IDE interface sucks in that it doesn't have a reliable IRQ
pending bit, so if the controller raises IRQ while the driver is
expecting it not to, the IRQ won't be cleared and eventually the IRQ
line will be killed by interrupt subsystem. Some controllers have
non-standard mechanism to indicate IRQ pending so that this condition
can be detected and worked around.
This patch adds an optional operation ->sff_irq_check() which will be
called for each port from the ata_sff_interrupt() if an unexpected
interrupt is received. If the operation returns %true,
->sff_check_status() and ->sff_irq_clear() will be cleared for the
port. Note that this doesn't mark the interrupt as handled so it
won't prevent IRQ subsystem from killing the IRQ if this mechanism
fails to clear the spurious IRQ.
This patch also implements ->sff_irq_check() for ata_piix. Note that
this adds slight overhead to shared IRQ operation as IRQs which are
destined for other controllers will trigger extra register accesses to
check whether IDE interrupt is pending but this solves rare screaming
IRQ cases and for some curious reason also helps weird BIOS related
glitch on Samsung n130 as reported in bko#14314.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14314
* piix_base_ops dropped as suggested by Sergei.
* Spurious IRQ detection doesn't kick in anymore if polling qc is in
progress. This provides less protection but some controllers have
possible data corruption issues if the wrong register is accessed
while a command is in progress.

cfq-iosched: rework seeky detection
Current seeky detection is based on average seek lenght.
This is suboptimal, since the average will not distinguish between:
* a process doing medium sized seeks
* a process doing some sequential requests interleaved with larger seeks
and even a medium seek can take lot of time, if the requested sector
happens to be behind the disk head in the rotation (50% probability).
Therefore, we change the seeky queue detection to work as follows:
* each request can be classified as sequential if it is very close to
the current head position, i.e. it is likely in the disk cache (disks
usually read more data than requested, and put it in cache for
subsequent reads). Otherwise, the request is classified as seeky.
* an history window of the last 32 requests is kept, storing the
classification result.
* A queue is marked as seeky if more than 1/8 of the last 32 requests
were seeky.
This patch fixes a regression reported by Yanmin, on mmap 64k random
reads.

The following patch defines sigcontext ABI of ColdFire. Due to ISA
restrictions ColdFire needs different rt_sigreturn trampoline.
And due to ColdFire FP registers being 8-bytes instead of 12-bytes on
m68k, sigcontext and fpregset structures should be updated.
Regarding the sc_fpstate[16+6*8] field, it would've been enough 16
bytes to store ColdFire's FP state. To accomodate GLIBC's libSegFault
it would'be been enough 6*8 bytes (room for the 6 non-call-clobbered
FP registers). I set it to 16+6*8 to provide some extra space for any
future changes in the ColdFire FPU.

m68k: Add NPTL support
This patch adds several syscalls, that provide necessary
functionality to support NPTL on m68k/ColdFire.
The syscalls are get_thread_area, set_thread_area, atomic_cmpxchg_32 and
atomic_barrier.
The cmpxchg syscall is required for ColdFire as it doesn't support 'cas'
instruction.
Also a ptrace call PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA is added to allow debugger to
inspect the TLS storage.

m68k: Switch to generic siginfo layout
This patch switches m68k to generic siginfo layout. The custom layout
of m68k's `struct siginfo' had several issues due to not considering
aliasing of members in the union, e.g., _uid32 was at different offsets
in ._kill, ._rt and ._sigchld.

macfb: fix 24-bit visual and stuff
Lots of changes. Remove volatile keywords. Take the advice in the comments
and change video_slot to slot_addr. Factor out fifteen or so "channel >>
8" shifts into three shifts higher up the call graph. Make
csc_setpalette() atomic, pass the correct color values. Check for
ioremap() failure. Add missing break statement, thus fixing 24 bit console
visual (blue background bug). Remove some uninformative printk() noise.
Add a description for powerbook 140/170 graphics.

valkyriefb: various fixes
Valkyriefb and macfb will adopt the same card if they get the chance, so
remove valkyrie support from macfb. Also fix the "valkyriefb: can't do
832x624x8" problem reported by Raylynn Knight some time ago, by adding
vmode 13 support for CONFIG_MAC. Also add vmode 11 since that works too.
Make use of the monitor sense lines on 68k Macs too. Also some cleanups.

But it doesn't hold because mac_var_to_vmode() can return a mode with a
slower pixel clock, even when a match is available. So we end up with this
failure:
using video mode 11 and color mode 0.
valkyriefb: vmode 12 not valid.
valkyriefb: can't set default video mode
valkyriefb: vmode 12 not valid.
Rather than have mac_var_to_mode() return the first reasonable mode it
finds, have it return the mode that is closest to the requested one (or
the mode with the closest longer pixel clock period if there is no exact
match).

MIPS: Cobalt: convert legacy port addresses to GT-64111 bus addresses
The GT-64111 PCI host bridge has no address translation mechanism, so
it can't generate legacy port accesses. This quirk fixes legacy device
port resources to contain the bus addresses actually generated by the
GT-64111.
I think this is the approach Ben Herrenschmidt suggested long ago:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119733290624544&w=2
This allows us to remove the IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED hack from
pcibios_fixup_device_resources(), which converts bus addresses to CPU
addresses. IORESOURCE_PCI_FIXED denotes resources that can't be moved;
it has nothing to do with converting bus to CPU addresses.
