    [PATCH] rework core barrier support · e18e923a
    Jens Axboe authored
    This reworks the core barrier support to be a lot nicer, so that all the
    nasty code resides outside of drivers/ide.  It requires minimal changes to
    support in a driver, I've added SCSI support as an example.  The ide code
    is adapted to the new code.
    
    With this patch, we support full barriers on sata now.  Bart has acked the
    addition to -mm, I would like for this to be submitted as soon as 2.6.12
    opens.
