- Remove the specific CONFIG_IDEDMA_PCI_WIP in favor of using the generic CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL tag. (Pointed out by Vojtech Pavlik). - Change the signature of the IRQ handler to take the request directly as a parameter. This doesn't blow the code up but makes it much more obvious and finally it's reducing the number of side effects of the hwgroup->rq field. - A second sharp look after the above change allowed us to remove the wrq field from the hwgroup struct. It's just not used at all. - Change the signature of the end_request member of struct ata_operations to take the request as a second argument. Similar for __ide_end_request() and ide_end_request(). - Remove BUG_ON() items just before ide_set_handler(). The check in ide_set_handler is clever enough now. - Remove the rq subfield from ide-scsi packet structure. We have now the request context always in place. Same for floppy. - Let the timer expiry function take the request as a direct argument. Yes I know those changes are extensive. But they are a necessary step in between for the following purposes: - Consolidate the whole ATA/ATAPI stuff on passing a single unified request handling object. Because after eliminating those side effects it's far easier to see what's passed where. - Minimizing the amount of side effects in the overall code. That's a good thing anyway and it *doesn't* cost us neither performance nor space, since the stack depths are small anyway here. - Minimizing the usage of hwgroup - which should go away if possible.
