Set bits 0, 4, 5 and 7 of PCI configuration register 0x40 in the quirk. This has the following effects and is recommended by the vendor. * Force enable of IDE channels (used to be left alone as BIOS configured) * Change initial phase behavior of PIO cycle such that the host pulls down the bus instead of tristating it. Vendor recommends this setting. The above settings are better for the current generation of controllers and needed for the upcoming next generation. Tested on JMB363.

Did a complete audit of these and found we have another error case. ata_bus_softreset calls ata_check_status which means that it tries to do an ioread8 on the port blindly and check versus 0xFF for an error. It should of course be using the ap->ops method for this via chk_status, and this bug causes a wrog status call on the NS87415 at least.

Jay Vosburgh authored
Convert mii (link state) monitor to acquire correct locks for failover events. In particular, failovers generally require RTNL at a low level (when manipulating device MAC addresses, for example) and no other locks. The high level monitor is responsible for acquiring a known set of locks, RTNL, the bond->lock for read and the slave_lock for write, and the low level failover processing can then release appropriate locks as needed. This patch provides the high level portion. As it is undesirable to acquire RTNL for every monitor pass (which may occur as often as every 10 ms), the miimon has been converted to do conditional locking. A first pass inspects all slaves to determine if any action is required, and if so, a second pass (after acquring RTNL) is done to perform any actions (doing a complete rescan, as the situation may have changed when all locks were released).

Jay Vosburgh authored
Change locking in balance-rr transmit processing to use a free running counter to determine which slave to transmit on. Instead, a free-running counter is maintained, and modulo arithmetic used to select a slave for transmit. This removes lock operations from the TX path, and eliminates a deadlock introduced by the conversion to work queues.

Convert bonding timers to workqueues. This converts the various monitor functions to run in periodic work queues instead of timers. This patch introduces the framework and convers the calls, but does not resolve various locking issues, and does not stand alone.

Commit eda3cef8 ("NFS: Fix error handling in nfs_direct_write_result()") ensured that if a WRITE returns an error, then data->res.verf->committed is not tested (as it is not initialised). Then commit 60fa3f76 ("NFS: Fix two bugs in the O_DIRECT write code") inadvertently reverted this while fixing other problems. So move the test so that we never examine ->committed in an error case, and fix a speeling error while we are there.

This patch adds a quirk from LinuxBIOS to force enable HPET on the nVidia CK804 (nForce 4) chipset. This quirk can very likely support more than just nForce 4 (LinuxBIOS use the same code for nForce 5), and possibly nForce 3, but I don't have those chipsets, so cannot add and test them. Tested on an Abit KN9 (CK804).
