sym53c8xx prints a negotiation message after every check condition.
This can add up to a lot of messages for removable-medium devices
(CD-ROM, tape drives, etc.) that are being polled, since they return
check condition when no medium is present. This patch suppresses the
negotiation message if it would be the same as the last one printed.

sym53c8xx uses a command queue depth of 2 for untagged devices,
without good reason. This _mostly_ seems to work ok, but it has
caused me some subtle problems. For example, I have an application
where one thread sends write commands to a tape drive, and another
thread sends log sense polling commands. With a queue depth of
2, the polling commands end up being starved for long periods of
time while multiple write commands are serviced (this may also be
related to the fact the the sg driver queues commands in LIFO order).
This problem is fixed by changing the queue depth to 1 for untagged
devices. I have tested this change extensively with many different
tape drives, medium changers, and disk drives (disk drives of course
use tagged commands and are therefore unaffected by this patch).

sym_init_device() doesn't check if pci_iomap() fails. It also tries
to map device RAM without first checking FE_RAM.
1) Move some initialization from sym_init_device() to the top of
sym2_probe().
2) Rename sym_init_device() to sym_iomap_device().
3) Call sym_iomap_device() after sym_check_supported() instead of
before so that device->chip.features will be set.
4) Check FE_RAM in sym_iomap_device() before mapping RAM.
5) If sym_iomap_device() cannot map registers, then abort.
6) If sym_iomap_device() cannot map RAM, then fall back to not using
RAM and continue.
7) Remove the check for FE_RAM in sym_attach() since dev->ram_base
is now always set correctly.

During sym2_probe(), sym_init_device() does pci_iomap(), but there is
no corresponding pci_iounmap() if an error occurs before sym_attach()
copies sym_device::s.{ioaddr,ramaddr} to np.
1) Add the sym_iounmap_device() function.
2) Call sym_iounmap_device() if an error occurs between
sym_init_device() and the time sym_attach() allocates np.
3) Make sym_attach() copy sym_device::s.{ioaddr,ramaddr} to np before
calling any function that can fail so that sym_free_resources()
will do the unmap instead of sym_iounmap_device().
Also fixed by this patch:
During sym2_probe(), if sym_check_raid() returns nonzero, then
pci_release_regions() is never called.

This patch fixes two bugs:
1) rmmod sym53c8xx uses shost after freeing it with
scsi_put_host(shost).
2) insmod sym53c8xx doesn't call scsi_put_host(shost) if
scsi_add_host() fails, causing a memory leak on the error path.

(The patch updated based on testing and comments from Tony Battersby.)
Change the sym53c8xx_2 driver negotiation logic so that the driver will
tolerate better device removals. Negotiation message(s) will be sent
with every INQUIRY and REQUEST SENSE command, and whenever there is a
change in goals or when the device reports check condition.
The patch was made specifically to address the case where you hotswap
the disk using remove-single-device/add-single-device commands through
/proc/scsi/scsi. Without the patch the driver keeps using old transfer
parameters even though the target is reset and reports check condition,
so the data transfer of the very first INQUIRY will fail.

Right now SCSI and others do their own command timeout handling.
Move those bits to the block layer.
Instead of having a timer per command, we try to be a bit more clever
and simply have one per-queue. This avoids the overhead of having to
tear down and setup a timer for each command, so it will result in a lot
less timer fiddling.

With the sg table code, every SCSI driver is now either chain capable
or broken (or has sg_tablesize set so chaining is never activated), so
there's no need to have a check in the host template.
Also tidy up the code by moving the scatterlist size defines into the
SCSI includes and permit the last entry of the scatterlist pools not
to be a power of two.

This patch fixes two bugs pointed by James Bottomley:
1. the if (!sym_data->io_reset). That variable is only ever filled
by a stack based completion. If we find it non empty it means
this code has been entered twice and we have a severe problem,
so that should just become a BUG_ON(sym_data->io_reset).
2. sym_data->io_reset should be set to NULL before the routine is
exited otherwise the PCI recovery code could end up completing
what will be a bogus pointer into the stack.
Big thanks to James Bottomley for help with the patch.

Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

The follow patch fixes a problem for Matt Taggart.
The Compaq system he had (dl380?) has a SmartArray device that exposes
the 53c1510 device in both RAID and "normal" modes. The difference
is in RAID mode, the smart array driver (IIRC) should claim the
device instead of sym2 driver. Patch below prevents sym2 from
claiming the device when the RAID "daughter board" is attached.
