sg increments the refcount of constituent pages in its higher order memory
allocations when they are about to be mapped by userspace. This is done so
the subsequent get_page/put_page when doing the mapping and unmapping does not
free the page.
Move over to the preferred way, that is, using compound pages instead. This
fixes a whole class of possible obscure bugs where a get_user_pages on a
constituent page may outlast the user mappings or even the driver.

SLAB_NO_REAP is documented as an option that will cause this slab not to be
reaped under memory pressure. However, that is not what happens. The only
thing that SLAB_NO_REAP controls at the moment is the reclaim of the unused
slab elements that were allocated in batch in cache_reap(). Cache_reap()
is run every few seconds independently of memory pressure.
Could we remove the whole thing? Its only used by three slabs anyways and
I cannot find a reason for having this option.
There is an additional problem with SLAB_NO_REAP. If set then the recovery
of objects from alien caches is switched off. Objects not freed on the
same node where they were initially allocated will only be reused if a
certain amount of objects accumulates from one alien node (not very likely)
or if the cache is explicitly shrunk. (Strangely __cache_shrink does not
check for SLAB_NO_REAP)
Getting rid of SLAB_NO_REAP fixes the problems with alien cache freeing.

Alan noted: "bmdma may be zero but the bmdma_irq_clear function gets
called even in this case during pure PIO operation. Check we have a
bmdma before we use it."
I fixed this by adding a check for zero. While was I there, I fixed the
non-standard indentation of the small function's code.

The first performs the simplex clearing relevant to some chipsets that
report simplex by default but can in fact do more if poked. The second
is used to strip DMA modes from a PCI control with no BAR4 allocation.

This patch addresses a number of weird behaviours observed
for the sata_mv driver, by fixing an "off by one" bug in processing
of the EDMA response queue.
Basically, sata_mv was looking in the wrong place for
command results, and this produced a lot of unpredictable behaviour.

Original patch (and description) by Douglas Gilbert, with minor fixes
and API updates from me.
Changelog:
- make existing libata VPD device identification page (0x83)
supply the ATA serial number in the libata "vendor
specific" designator (from Chris Paulson-Ellis)
- add a "t10 vendor id based" designator as defined in
SAT rev 08 (section 10.3.4.2.3) that supplies ATA
model and serial numbers
- make the libata VPD page 0x83 more extensible (for
adding more designators in the future).
- rename EVPD to VPD in various places. Enable Vital
Product Data (EVPD) is a bit in the INQUIRY cdb.

This patch adds a scsi_disk class with the cache type and FUA
parameters, so user land application can easily obtain them without
having to parse dmesg. It also allows setting the cache type (use with
care...)
This patch is a bit dangerous because I've replaced the disk kref with a

This patch makes expanders appear as labelled objects with properties in
the SAS tree.
I've also modified the phy code to make expander phys appear labelled by

So, for my current config, you see something like this in sysfs:
/sys/class/scsi_host/host1/device/phy-1:4/expander-1:0/phy-1-0:12/rphy-1:0-12/target1:0:1
And the expander properties are:

jejb@sparkweed> for f in *; do echo -n $f ": "; cat $f; done

This moves the eh_timed_out functionality from the scsi_host_template
to the transport_template. Given that this is now a transport function,
the EH_RESET_TIMER case no longer caps the timer reschedulings. The
transport guarantees that this is not an infinite condition.
