There is a new #if 0 section here which is a suggested fix for the horrible
PCI hack in the existing code. Would be good if someone with a box that uses
this device could test it.

The tuner driver used to change i2c_client.name for its own needs, but
it really shouldn't, as this field is used by i2c-core to do the
device/driver matching. So, create and use a separate field for the
tuner driver needs.

On Book-E SMP systems each core has its own private watchdog. If only one
watchdog is enabled, when the core that doesn't enable the watchdog is hung,
system can't reset because no watchdog is running on it. That's bad. It
means we must enable watchdogs on both cores.
We can use smp_call_function() to send appropriate messages to all the other
cores to enable and update the watchdog.

Pádraig Brady requested the possibility of not disabling the watchdog
at module load time or kernel boot time if it had been previously enabled
in the bios. It may help rebooting the machine if it freezes before the

Somehow the spidev code forgot to include a critical mechanism: when the
underlying device is removed (e.g. spi_master rmmod), open file
descriptors must be prevented from issuing new I/O requests to that
device. On penalty of the oopsing reported by Sebastian Siewior
<bigeasy@tglx.de> ...
This is a partial fix, adding handshaking between the lower level (SPI
messaging) and the file operations using the spi_dev. (It also fixes an
issue where reads and writes didn't return the number of bytes sent or
received.)
There's still a refcounting issue to be addressed (separately).

In 2.6.25, ramdisk devices show up in /proc/partitions, which is a
behaviour change from the old rd.c. Add GENHD_FL_SUPPRESS_PARTITION_INFO,
which was present in rd.c.
All kernels prior to 2.6.25 weren't displaying ramdisks in
/proc/partitions. Since there are many userspace tools using information
from /proc/partitions some of them may now behave incorrectly (I didn't
tested any though). For example before 2.6.25 /proc/partitions was empty
if no block devices like hard disks and such were detected by kernel. Now
all 16 ramdisks are always visible there. Some software may rely on such
information (I mean, on empty /proc/partitions).
There was quite similar situation back in 2004, and ramdisks were excluded
back from displaying. Thats why I called this a regression (maybe a bit
unfortunate). See this patch for info:
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.3-rc2/2.6.3-rc2-mm1/broken-out/nbd-proc-partitions-fix.patch
I also think that someone somewhere (long time ago) excluded ramdisks from
/proc/partitions for good reasons. It is possible that now such new
"feature" is harmless, but I think there are more chances that someone
will say "hey, /proc/partitions has changed, now my software doesn't work"
then "hey where did my new 2.6.25 feature go". nbd devices are also
excluded, maybe for very same (unknown to me) reasons.

When we get any IO error during a recovery (rebuilding a spare), we abort
the recovery and restart it.
For RAID6 (and multi-drive RAID1) it may not be best to restart at the
beginning: when multiple failures can be tolerated, the recovery may be
able to continue and re-doing all that has already been done doesn't make
sense.
We already have the infrastructure to record where a recovery is up to
and restart from there, but it is not being used properly.
This is because:
- We sometimes abort with MD_RECOVERY_ERR rather than just MD_RECOVERY_INTR,
which causes the recovery not be be checkpointed.
- We remove spares and then re-added them which loses important state
information.
The distinction between MD_RECOVERY_ERR and MD_RECOVERY_INTR really isn't
needed. If there is an error, the relevant drive will be marked as
Faulty, and that is enough to ensure correct handling of the error. So we
first remove MD_RECOVERY_ERR, changing some of the uses of it to
MD_RECOVERY_INTR.
Then we cause the attempt to remove a non-faulty device from an array to
fail (unless recovery is impossible as the array is too degraded). Then
when remove_and_add_spares attempts to remove the devices on which
recovery can continue, it will fail, they will remain in place, and
recovery will continue on them as desired.
Issue: If we are halfway through rebuilding a spare and another drive
fails, and a new spare is immediately available, do we want to:
1/ complete the current rebuild, then go back and rebuild the new spare or
2/ restart the rebuild from the start and rebuild both devices in
parallel.
Both options can be argued for. The code currently takes option 2 as
a/ this requires least code change
b/ this results in a minimally-degraded array in minimal time.

In some configurations, a raid6 resync can be limited by CPU speed
(Calculating P and Q and moving data) rather than by device speed. In
these cases there is nothing to be gained byt serialising resync of arrays
that share a device, and doing the resync in parallel can provide benefit.
So add a sysfs tunable to flag an array as being allowed to resync in
parallel with other arrays that use (a different part of) the same device.

This additional notification to 'array_state' is needed to allow the
monitor application to learn about stop events via sysfs. The
sysfs_notify("sync_action") call that comes at the end of do_md_stop()
(via md_new_event) is insufficient since the 'sync_action' attribute has
been removed by this point.
(Seems like a sysfs-notify-on-removal patch is a better fix. Currently
removal updates the event count but does not wake up waiters)
