53c96b4174 ieee1394: remove old isochronous ABI
Based on patch "the scheduled removal of RAW1394_REQ_ISO_{SEND,LISTEN}"
from Adrian Bunk, November 20 2006.

This patch also removes the underlying facilities in ohci1394 and
disables them in pcilynx.  That is, hpsb_host_driver.devctl() and
hpsb_host_driver.transmit_packet() are no longer used for iso reception
and transmission.

Since video1394 and dv1394 only work with ohci1394 and raw1394's rawiso
interface has never been implemented in pcilynx, pcilynx is now no
longer useful for isochronous applications.

raw1394 will still handle the request types but will complete the
requests with errors that indicate API version conflicts.

outside the host threads' contexts.

883b97eaf2 ieee1394: raw1394: Fix write() for 32bit userland on 64bit kernel
* write(fd, buf, 52) from 32bit app was returning 56.  Most of callers did not
  care, but some (arm registration) did, and anyway it looks bad if request for
  writing 52 bytes returns 56.  And returning sizeof anything in 'int' is not
  good as well.  So all functions now return '0' instead of
  sizeof(struct raw1394_request) on success, and write() itself provides correct
  return value (it just returns value it was asked to write on success as raw1394
  does not do any partial writes at all).

* Related to this was problem that write() could have returned 0 when kernel
  state would become corrupted and moved to different state than
  opened/initialized/connected.  Now it returns -EBADFD which seemed appropriate.

49521f97cc ide: add short cables support
This patch allows users to override both host and device side cable detection
with "ideX=ata66" kernel parameter.  Thanks to this it should be now possible
to use UDMA > 2 modes on systems (laptops mainly) which use short 40-pin cable
instead of 80-pin one.

Next patches add automatic detection of some systems using short cables.

Changes:

* Rename hwif->udma_four to hwif->cbl and make it u8.

* Convert all existing users accordingly (use ATA_CBL_* defines while at it).  

* Add ATA_CBL_PATA40_SHORT support to ide-iops.c:eighty_ninty_three().

* Use ATA_CBL_PATA40_SHORT for "ideX=ata66" kernel parameter.

b740d8846e serverworks: always tune CSB6
Switch the driver to always program DMA/PIO timings and set device transfer
mode instead of trusting BIOS on CSB6 controllers (libata pata_serverworks.c
driver is also doing things this way and there were no problems reported so
far).  While doing conversion I noticed that the old code had many issues:

* the code was assuming that hwif->dma_status is always valid
  (which obviously isn't true if hwif->dma_base == NULL)

* value of "(ultra_timing >> (4*unit)) & ~(0xF0)" expression wasn't checked
  to fit into udma_modes[5]

* code validating DMA timings didn't validate corresponding PIO timings

* extra CSB5 PIO register wasn't validated et all

* hwif->ide_dma_off_quietly() is always called before ide_set_dma() (which in
  turn calls hwif->speedproc() method - svwks_tune_chipset() in this case)
  so the code depending on DMA capable bit of DMA status to be set was never
  executed (=> the code was never validating DMA timings despite actually
  enabling DMA if the PIO timings were OK!)

* on resume driver dependend entirely on BIOS to restore timings and set
  transfer mode on the device

While at it:

There is no need to read PIO/MWDMA timings now so don't do it.

9c4801cebc sched: more agressive idle balancing
the Linux scheduler is starving a number of workloads. So default
to more agressive idle-balancing. This hurts lmbench context-switching
numbers (which was the main reason we sucked at idle-balancing for
such a long time) but the lmbench numbers are fine once the system is
minimally utilized.

do not set softirqs to nice +19. _If_ for whatever reason
we missed to process some high-prio softirq and woke up
ksoftirqd, we should give it a fair chance to actually
get some work done, even if the system is under load.
