Tejun Heo 24dc5f33ea libata: update libata LLDs to use devres
Update libata LLDs to use devres.  Core layer is already converted to
support managed LLDs.  This patch simplifies initialization and fixes
many resource related bugs in init failure and detach path.  For
example, all converted drivers now handle ata_device_add() failure
gracefully without excessive resource rollback code.

As most resources are released automatically on driver detach, many
drivers don't need or can do with much simpler ->{port|host}_stop().
In general, stop callbacks are need iff port or host needs to be given
commands to shut it down.  Note that freezing is enough in many cases
and ports are automatically frozen before being detached.

David Howells 7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
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.

Jeff Garzik cca3974e48 libata: Grand renaming.
The biggest change is that ata_host_set is renamed to ata_host.

* ata_host_set			=> ata_host
* ata_probe_ent->host_flags	=> ata_probe_ent->port_flags
* ata_probe_ent->host_set_flags	=> ata_probe_ent->_host_flags
* ata_host_stats		=> ata_port_stats
* ata_port->host		=> ata_port->scsi_host
* ata_port->host_set		=> ata_port->host
* ata_port_info->host_flags	=> ata_port_info->flags
* ata_(.*)host_set(.*)\(\)	=> ata_\1host\2()

The leading underscore in ata_probe_ent->_host_flags is to avoid
reusing ->host_flags for different purpose.  Currently, the only user
of the field is libata-bmdma.c and probe_ent itself is scheduled to be
removed.

ata_port->host is reused for different purpose but this field is used
inside libata core proper and of different type.
