Some time ago we had to disable init_hwif callback for PowerPC builds.
That was because of a historical IRQ overwrite in the driver, which
was causing IDE malfunction on the MPC8610HPCD PowerPC boards.
It's unclear whether this overwrite is still useful, but it is proven
to cause a bit of harm, and today some PowerPC targets (Xilinx ML510,
as reported by Roderick Colenbrander) need the init_hwif, so we have
to re-enable it and remove the overwrite.

Bugfixes noted by checking the code against the controller
documentation (TI document number SPRUE21):
- Remove declarations for eight non-existent registers (!);
and remove accesses to two of them.
- Remove access to various non-existent bitfields in some of
the registers which *do* exist (those fields must-be-zero).
- Provide comment to replace bogus reset logic (removed above,
it relied on non-existent bitfields). Resets require GPIO
help; this driver doesn't currently know about that.
With some minor cleanup: relocate a comment, avoid an extra
lookup of the PIO timings.

Fix UDMA throughput bug: tCYC averages t2CYCTYP/2, but the code
previously assumed it was the same as t2CYCTYP. (That is, it was
using just one clock edge, not both.) Move the table's type
declaration so it's adjacent to the table, making it more clear
what those numbers mean.
On one system this change increased throughput by almost 4x: UDMA/66
sometimes topped 23 MB/sec (on a drive known to do much better). On
another system it was around a 10% win (UDMA/66 up to 7+ MB/sec).
The difference might be caused by the ratio between memory and IDE
clocks. In the system with large speedup, this was exactly 2 (as a
workaround for a rev 1.1 silicon bug). The other system used a more
standard ratio of 1.63 (and rev 2.1 silicon) ... clock domain synch
might have some issues, they're not unheard-of.

Impact: use standard way to transfer data
ide-tape uses rq in an interesting way. For r/w requests, rq->special
is used to carry a private buffer management structure idetape_bh and
rq->nr_sectors and current_nr_sectors are initialized to the number of
idetape blocks which isn't necessary 512 bytes. Also,
rq->current_nr_sectors is used to report back the residual count in
units of idetape blocks.
This peculiarity taxes both block layer and ide. ide-atapi has
different paths and hooks to accomodate it and what a rq means becomes
quite confusing and making changes at the block layer becomes quite
difficult and error-prone.
This patch makes ide-tape use bio instead. With the previous patch,
ide-tape currently is using single contiguos buffer so replacing it
isn't difficult. Data buffer is mapped into bio using
blk_rq_map_kern() in idetape_queue_rw_tail(). idetape_io_buffers()
and idetape_update_buffers() are dropped and pc->bh is set to null to
tell ide-atapi to use standard data transfer mechanism and idetape_bh
byte counts are updated by the issuer on completion using the residual
count.
This change also nicely removes the FIXME in ide_pc_intr() where
ide-tape rqs need to be completed using ide_rq_bytes() instead of
blk_rq_bytes() (although this didn't really matter as the request
didn't have bio).

Impact: simpler buffer allocation and handling, kills OOM, fix DMA transfers
ide-tape has its own multiple buffer mechanism using struct
idetape_bh. It allocates buffer with decreasing order-of-two
allocations so that it results in minimum number of segments.
However, the implementation is quite complex and works in a way that
no other block or ide driver works necessitating a lot of special case
handling.
The benefit this complex allocation scheme brings is questionable as
PIO or DMA the number of segments (16 maximum) doesn't make any
noticeable difference and it also doesn't negate the need for multiple
order allocation which can fail under memory pressure or high
fragmentation although it does lower the highest order necessary by
one when the buffer size isn't power of two.
As the first step to remove the custom buffer management, this patch
makes ide-tape allocate single continous buffer. The maximum order is
four. I doubt the change would cause any trouble but if it ever
matters, it should be converted to regular sg mechanism like everyone
else and even in that case dropping custom buffer handling and moving
to standard mechanism first make sense as an intermediate step.
This patch makes the first bh to contain the whole buffer and drops
multi bh handling code. Following patches will make further changes.
This patch has the side effect of killing OOM triggered by allocation
path and fixing DMA transfers. Previously, bug in alloc path
triggered OOM on command issue and commands were passed to DMA engine
without DMA-mapping all the segments.

Impact: allow residual count implementation in ->pc_callback()
rq->data_len has two duties - carrying the number of input bytes on
issue and carrying residual count back to the issuer on completion.
ide-atapi completion callback ->pc_callback() is the right place to do
this but currently ide-atapi depends on rq->data_len carrying the
original request size after calling ->pc_callback() to complete the pc
request.
This patch makes ide_pc_intr(), ide_tape_issue_pc() and
ide_floppy_issue_pc() cache length to complete before calling
->pc_callback() so that it can modify rq->data_len as necessary.
Note: As using rq->data_len for two purposes can make cases like this
incorrect in subtle ways, future changes will introduce separate
field for residual count.

Impact: fix infinite retry loop
After a command failed, ide-tape and floppy inserts REQUEST_SENSE in
front of the failed command and according to the result, sets
pc->retries, flags and errors. After REQUEST_SENSE is complete, the
failed command is again at the front of the queue and if the verdict
was to terminate the request, the issue functions tries to complete it
directly by calling drive->pc_callback() and returning ide_stopped.
However, drive->pc_callback() doesn't complete a request. It only
prepares for completion of the request. As a result, this creates an
infinite loop where the failed request is retried perpetually.
Fix it by actually ending the request by calling ide_complete_rq().

Impact: unify request data buffer handling
rq->data is used mostly to pass kernel buffer through request queue
without using bio. There are only a couple of places which still do
this in kernel and converting to bio isn't difficult.
This patch converts ide-cd and atapi to use bio instead of rq->data
for request sense and internal pc commands. With previous change to
unify sense request handling, this is relatively easily achieved by
adding blk_rq_map_kern() during sense_rq prep and PC issue.
If blk_rq_map_kern() fails for sense, the error is deferred till sense
issue and aborts the failed command which triggered the sense. Note
that this is a slim possibility as sense prep is done on each command
issue, so for the above condition to actually trigger, all preps since
the last sense issue till the issue of the request which would require
a sense should fail.
* do_request functions might sleep now. This should be okay as ide
request_fn - do_ide_request() - is invoked only from make_request
and plug work. Make sure this is the case by adding might_sleep()
to do_ide_request().
* Functions which access the read sense data before the sense request
is complete now should access bio_data(sense_rq->bio) as the sense
buffer might have been copied during blk_rq_map_kern().
* ide-tape updated to map sg.
* cdrom_do_block_pc() now doesn't have to deal with REQ_TYPE_ATA_PC
special case. Simplified.
* tp_ops->output/input_data path dropped from ide_pc_intr().

Since we're issuing REQ_TYPE_SENSE now we need to allow those types of
rqs in the ->do_request callbacks. As a future improvement, sense_len
assignment might be unified across all ATAPI devices. Borislav to

As a result, get rid of ide_queue_pc_head() and

ide_create_request_sense_cmd() into its only current user -
ide_floppy_get_format_progress().
* ide_retry_pc() no longer takes @disk.

Preallocate a sense request in the ->do_request method and reinitialize
it only on demand, in case it's been consumed in the IRQ handler path.
The reason for this is that we don't want to be mapping rq to bio in
the IRQ path and introduce all kinds of unnecessary hacks to the block
layer.
tj: * Both user and kernel PC requests expect sense data to be stored
in separate storage other than drive->sense_data. Copy sense
data to rq->sense on completion if rq->sense is not NULL. This
fixes bogus sense data on PC requests.
As a result, remove cdrom_queue_request_sense.

Impact: subtle behavior change
For fs requests, rq is only carrier of bios and rq error status as a
whole doesn't mean much. This is the reason why rq->errors is being
cleared on each partial completion of a request as on each partial
completion the error status is transferred to the respective bios.
For pc requests, rq->errors is used to carry error status to the
issuer and thus __end_that_request_first() doesn't clear it on such
cases.
The condition was fine till now as only fs and pc requests have used
bio and thus the bio completion path. However, future changes will
unify data accesses to bio and all non fs users care about rq error
status. Clear rq->errors on bio completion only for fs requests.
In general, the implicit clearing is a bit too subtle especially as
the meaning of rq->errors is completely dependent on low level
drivers. Unifying / cleaning up rq->errors usage and letting llds
manage it would be better. TODO comment added.
