The ACPI EC that is used in MSI laptops knows some non-standard
commands for changing the screen brighntess and a few other things,
which are used by the msi-laptop.c driver. Unfortunately for these
commands no GPE events for IBF and OBF are triggered. Since nowadays
the EC code uses the ec_intr=1 mode by default, this causes these
operations to timeout, although they don't fail. In result, all
operations that you can do with the msi-laptop.c driver take more or
less 1s to complete, which is awfully slow.

In one of the more recent kernels (2.6.20?) the EC subsystem has been
revamped. With that change the EC timeout has been increased. before
that increase the MSI EC accesses were slow -- but not *that* slow,
hence I took notice of this limitation of the MSI EC hardware only very
recently.

The standard EC operations on the MSI EC as defined in the ACPI spec
support GPE events properly.

The following patch adds a new argument "force_poll" to the
ec_transaction() function (and friends). If set to 1, the function
will poll for IBF/OBF even if ec_intr=1 is enabled. If set to 0 the
current behaviour is used. The msi-laptop driver is modified to make
use of this new flag, so that OBF/IBF is polled for the special MSI EC
transactions -- but only for them.

HP nx6125/nx6325/... machines have a _GPE handler with an infinite
loop sending Notify() events to different ACPI subsystems.

Notify handler in ACPI driver is a C-routine, which may call ACPI
interpreter again to get access to some ACPI variables
(acpi_evaluate_xxx).
On these HP machines such an evaluation changes state of some variable
and lets the loop above break.

In the current ACPI implementation Notify requests are being deferred
to the same kacpid workqueue on which the above GPE handler with
infinite loop is executing. Thus we have a deadlock -- loop will
continue to spin, sending notify events, and at the same time
preventing these notify events from being run on a workqueue. All
notify events are deferred, thus we see increase in memory consumption
noticed by author of the thread. Also as GPE handling is bloked,
machines overheat. Eventually by external poll of the same
acpi_evaluate, kacpid is released and all the queued notify events are
free to run, thus 100% cpu utilization by kacpid for several seconds
or more.

To prevent all these horrors it's needed to not put notify events to
kacpid workqueue by either executing them immediately or putting them
on some other thread. It's dangerous to execute notify events in
place, as it will put several ACPI interpreter stacks on top of each
other (at least 4 in case of nx6125), thus causing kernel  stack
overflow.

First attempt to create a new thread was done by Peter Wainwright
He created a bunch of threads, which were stealing work from a kacpid
workqueue.
This patch appeared in 2.6.15 kernel shipped with Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.

Second attempt was done by me, I created a new thread for each Notify
event. This worked OK on HP nx machines, but broke Linus' Compaq
n620c, by producing threads with a speed what they stopped the machine
completely. Thus this patch was reverted from 18-rc2 as I remember.
I re-made the patch to create second workqueue just for notify events,
thus hopping it will not break Linus' machine. Patch was tested on the
same HP nx machines in #5534 and #7122, but I did not received reply
from Linus on a test patch sent to him.
Patch went to 19-rc and was rejected with much fanfare again.
There was 4th patch, which inserted schedule_timeout(1) into deferred
execution of kacpid, if we had any notify requests pending, but Linus
decided that it was too complex (involved either changes to workqueue
to see if it's empty or atomic inc/dec).
Now you see last variant which adds yield() to every GPE execution.

Quoth Neil Brown:

  "It causes an oops when auto-detecting raid arrays, and it doesn't
   seem easy to fix.

   The array may not be 'open' when do_md_run is called, so
   bdev->bd_disk might be NULL, so bd_set_size can oops.

   This whole approach of opening an md device before it has been
   assembled just seems to get more and more painful.  I think I'm going
   to have to come up with something clever to provide both backward
   comparability with usage expectation, and sane integration into the
   rest of the kernel."

It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than
by bus.  When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer
is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking
maintainer.  Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often
appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into
drivers/pci/net.

This patch fixes some problems with ADMA-capable controllers with
regard to freeze, thaw and irq_clear libata callbacks. Freeze and
thaw didn't switch the ADMA-specific interrupts on or off, and more
critically the irq_clear function didn't respect the restriction that
the notifier clear registers for both ports have to be written at
the same time even when only one port is being cleared. This could
result in timeouts on one port when error handling (i.e. as a result
of hotplug) occurred on the other port.

As well, this fixes some issues in the interrupt handler: we shouldn't
check any ADMA status if the port has ADMA switched off because of
an ATAPI device, and it also checks to see if any ADMA interrupt has
been raised even when we are in port-register mode.

There is a known problem with sata_promise on SATAII-150/300 TX4
controller cards: it enumerates drives in an order that differs
from the port numbers printed on the controller cards. However,
Promise's BIOS and Linux driver both get the order right.

I investigated Promise's Linux driver (v1.01.0.23), and found
that it explicitly changes the mapping from logical port number
to ATA engine MMIO address on the SATAII TX4 cards. It does this
on all SATAII TX4 cards, without inspecting revision etc. The
SATAII TX2plus cards continue to use the same mapping that was
used for the first-generation chips.

This patch updates sata_promise to use the new port number to
ATA engine mapping on SATAII TX4 cards, which fixes the drive
enumeration order problem on those cards. Tested on several
1st and 2nd generation TX2plus and TX4 chips.

The sata_promise error decode update changed pdc_host_intr()
to return and not complete the qc after detecting an error.
Unfortunately not completing the qc:s causes them to always
time out on error, which is wrong and has nasty side-effects.

This patch updates pdc_error_intr() to call ata_port_abort(),
similar to ahci and sata_sil24. Doing this is important as it
makes EH see the original error and not a bogus timeout.

Ejecting a PCMCIA IBM Token Ring card that has not had its dev->open()
called will reliably trigger an uninitialized spinlock oops when
spinlock debugging is enabled. The system then hangs, occasionally
softlockup oopsing.  Apparently ibmtr.c:tok_interrupt() doesn't expect
to be called before tok_open(), but tok_interrupt() gets called anyway
when the card is ejected.  So, set an already-existing flag which
causes tok_interrupt() to bail out early upon card ejection. Tested by
inserting and removing the PCMCIA card several times.

IDE PCI host drivers should register themselves with IDE core only when
IDE driver is built-in, otherwise (IDE driver is modular and thus IDE PCI
host drivers are also modular) the code has no effect and just complicates
the probing.

Fix it by adding new config option CONFIG_IDEPCI_PCIBUS (defined only when
needed and invisible to the user) and covering by #ifdef/#endif the code
in question.  It turned out that "ide=reverse" was silently accepted but did
nothing in case when IDE driver was modular, this is fixed now.
