The device can take a while to respond to an open/close request, so
increase the time kernel will wait for response (1 ms to 10ms).
Also, properly clean up a channel on a failed open, by calling the channel
close routine. Just freeing the memory isn't sufficient, the device needs

when requesting a GPIO for the first time via gpio_request(), the POLAR

some examples:
- when doing something like "request_irq(); gpio_request();" on the

- when doing "gpio_request(); gpio_request();" on the same GPIO, the

If it does every happen, by definition it's a bug. Whatever

sparc64: Validate kernel generated fault addresses on sparc64.
In order to handle all of the cases of address calculation overflow
properly, we run sparc 32-bit processes in "address masking" mode
when running on a 64-bit kernel.
Address masking mode zeros out the top 32-bits of the address
calculated for every load and store instruction.
However, when we're in privileged mode we have to run with that
address masking mode disabled even when accessing userspace from
the kernel.
To "simulate" the address masking mode we clear the top-bits by
hand for 32-bit processes in the fault handler.
It is the responsibility of code in the compat layer to properly
zero extend addresses used to access userspace. If this isn't
followed properly we can get into a fault loop.
Say that the user address is 0xf0000000 but for whatever reason
the kernel code sign extends this to 64-bit, and then the kernel
tries to access the result.
In such a case we'll fault on address 0xfffffffff0000000 but the fault
handler will process that fault as if it were to address 0xf0000000.
We'll loop faulting forever because the fault never gets satisfied.
So add a check specifically for this case, when the kernel is faulting
on a user address access and the addresses don't match up.
This code path is sufficiently slow path, and this bug is sufficiently
painful to diagnose, that this kind of bug check is warranted.

Evidence of processing timer interrupts is what the NMI watchdog

On Niagara, we'll yield the cpu. This will make the cpu, at
worst, hang out in the hypervisor until an interrupt arrives.
This will prevent the NMI watchdog timer from firing.
However on non-Niagara we just loop executing instructions

libata: improve probe failure handling
When link is flaky at high speed, it isn't uncommon for a device to
repeatedly fail probing sequence early after successfully negotiating
high link speed. This often leads to consecutive hotplug events
without successful probing.
This patch improves libata EH such that it remembers probing trials
and if there have been more than two unsuccessful trials in the past
60 seconds, slows down link speed to 1.5Gbps.
As link speed negotiation is the duty of the PHY layer proper, the

libata: check onlineness before using SPD in sata_down_spd_limit()
sata_down_spd_limit() should check whether the link is online before
using the SPD value to determine how to limit the link speed. Factor
out onlineness test and test it from sata_down_spd_limit().

libata: fix EH device failure handling
The dev->pio_mode > XFER_PIO_0 test is there to avoid unnecessary
speed down warning messages but it accidentally disabled SATA link spd
down during configuration phase after reset where PIO mode is always
zero.
This patch fixes the problem by moving the test where it belongs.
This makes libata probing sequence behave better when the connection
is flaky at higher link speeds which isn't too uncommon for eSATA
devices.

sata_nv: ck804 has borked hardreset too
While playing with nvraid, I found out that rmmoding and insmoding
often trigger hardreset failure on the first port (the second one was
always okay). Seriously, how diverse can you get with hardreset
behaviors? Anyways, make ck804 use noclassify variant too.

ide/libata: fix ata_id_is_cfa() (take 4)
When checking for the CFA feature set support, ata_id_is_cfa() tests bit 2 in
word 82 of the identify data instead the word 83; it also checks the ATA/PI
version support in the word 80 (which the CompactFlash specifications have as
reserved), this having no slightest chance to work on the modern CF cards that
don't have 0x848A in the word 0...

ahci: add a module parameter to ignore the SSS flags for async scanning
The SSS flag, which directs the OS to spin up one disk at a time
to not have the PSU blow out, sometimes gets set even when not needed.
The effect of this is a longer-than-needed boot time.
This patch adds a module parameter that makes the driver ignore SSS
at least as far as the parallel scan during boot is concerned...
