b9b64e6e89 [OPENPROMIO]: Handle current_node being NULL correctly.
If the user tries to traverse to the next node of the
last node, we get NULL in current_node and a zero phandle
returned.  That's fine, but if the user tries to obtain
properties in that state, we try to dereference a NULL
pointer in the downcall to the of_*() routines.

So protect against that.

This turns out to be a genuine bug.  The queue lock and xmit lock are
intentionally taken out of order.  Two things are supposed to prevent
dead-locks from occuring:

1) When we hold the queue_lock we're supposed to only do try_lock on the
tx_lock.

2) We always drop the queue_lock after taking the tx_lock and before doing
anything else.

This path obviously breaks assumption 1) and therefore can lead to ABBA
dead-locks.

I've looked at the history and there seems to be no reason for the lock
to be held at all in dev_watchdog_up.  The lock appeared in day one and
even there it was unnecessary.  In fact, people added __dev_watchdog_up
precisely in order to get around the tx lock there.

The function dev_watchdog_up is already serialised by rtnl_lock since
its only caller dev_activate is always called under it.

So here is a simple patch to remove the tx lock from dev_watchdog_up.
In 2.6.19 we can eliminate the unnecessary __dev_watchdog_up and
replace it with dev_watchdog_up.

c394f1eafe ieee1394: sbp2: enable auto spin-up for all SBP-2 devices
This is a follow-up to patch "ieee1394: sbp2: enable auto spin-up for
Maxtor disks".  When I 'ejected' an OXUF922 based HDD from a Mac OS X
box, it was spun down by the Mac and did not spin up by itself when
attached to a Linux box right after that.  The first SCSI command that
required the bridge to access the drive ended in
sda:<6>sd 18:0:0:0: Device not ready: <6>: Current: sense key: Not Ready
    Additional sense: Logical unit not ready, initializing cmd. required

Therefore the flag which instructs scsi_mod to send START STOP UNIT with
START=1 ("make medium ready") after such a condition is now enabled
unconditionally for all FireWire storage devices.

98e238cd42 ieee1394: sbp2: don't prefer MODE SENSE 10
In the old days, sbp2 used to coerce all MODE SENSE commands into the
10 bytes version.  When all command set conversions were removed from
sbp2 several months ago, sdev->use_10_for_ms = 1 was added.  Meaning,
higher SCSI layers preferred the 10 bytes version but would try the 6
bytes version if the former failed.

Recently, a problem with the 10 bytes version was discovered.  An Initio
INIC-1530 firmware accepted the 10 bytes version but replied with bogus
data, showing the HDD incorrectly as write-protected.  Since RBC
actually mandates MODE SENSE (6), I checked which version was sent by
Windows XP and Mac OS X 10.3 to an SBP-2 target hosted by Linux --- it
was the 6 bytes version.  (Exception: OS X sent the 10 bytes version to
an MMC target.  RBC and SBC got MODE SENSE (6).)

Therefore, drop the use_10_for_ms flag from sbp2.  Now the upper layers
will try MODE SENSE (6) before MODE SENSE (10) on all SBP-2 devices.

2cccbb555c ieee1394: sbp2: prevent rare deadlock in shutdown
Scsi_remove_device() may go into uninterruptible sleep if blocked.
Therefore sbp2_remove() unblocks the Scsi_Host before the device is
requested to be removed.  But there could be another 1394 bus reset
after that which would block the host again.  The 1394 subsystem won't
call sbp2_update() concurrently to sbp2_remove(), which is why there is
no chance for sbp2_remove() to be unblocked by sbp2_update().

The fix is to tell sbp2's bus reset handler when a device is to be shut
down so that it skips scsi_block_requests() on that host.  As before,
any new commands after a reset without reconnect will be failed quickly
by sbp2scsi_queuecommand().

In the long term, means to go without scsi_block_requests() should be
found.

09ee67abe9 ieee1394: sbp2: handle "sbp2util_node_write_no_wait failed"
Fix for http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6948

Because sbp2 writes to the target's fetch agent's registers from within
atomic context, it cannot sleep to guaranteedly get a free transaction
label.  This may repeatedly lead to "sbp2util_node_write_no_wait failed"
and consequently to SCSI command abortion after timeout.  A likely cause
is that many queue_command softirqs may occur before khpsbpkt (the
ieee1394 driver's thread which cleans up after finished transactions) is
woken up to recycle tlabels.

Sbp2 now schedules a workqueue job whenever sbp2_link_orb_command fails
in sbp2util_node_write_no_wait.  The job will reliably get a transaction
label because it can sleep.

We use the kernel-wide shared workqueue because it is unlikely that the
job itself actually needs to sleep.  In the improbable case that it has
to sleep, it doesn't need to sleep long since the standard transaction
timeout is 100ms.

3e98eab46d ieee1394: sbp2: safer initialization of status fifo
Sbp2's copy of the status fifo was cleared when management ORBs or new
command ORBs were prepared.  The latter had potential for a race
condition if the block layer's soft IRQ and the 1394 LLD's interrupt
handler ran on different CPUs.  It would also yield wrong status if a
command was completed with non-zero completion status before other
commands that had zero completion status, and no new command was
enqueued in the meantime.

Now, the status buffer is cleared right before it is written.  Thus it
ends up in the following simpler and safer access pattern:
 - sbp2_alloc_device: allocates and implicitly clears once,
 - sbp2_handle_status_write: clears, writes, and reads,
 - sbp2_query_logins, sbp2_login_device, sbp2_reconnect_device: read.
The latter three do not race with sbp2_handle_status_write because of
how the protocol works.

As a tiny optimization, the first two quadlets of the status never need
to be cleared.

28212767e5 ieee1394: sbp2: discard return value of sbp2_link_orb_command
Since sbp2 is at the moment unable to do anything with the return value
of sbp2_link_orb_command, just discard it.

cc07818912 ieee1394: sbp2: safer last_orb and next_ORB handling
The sbp2 initiator has two ways to tell a target's fetch agent about new
command ORBs:
 - Write the ORB's address to the ORB_POINTER register.  This must not
   be done while the fetch agent is active.
 - Put the ORB's address into the previously submitted ORB's next_ORB
   field and write to the DOORBELL register.  This may be done while the
   fetch agent is active or suspended.  It must not be done while the
   fetch agent is in reset state.
Sbp2 has a last_orb pointer which indicates in what way a new command
should be announced.  That pointer is concurrently accessed at various
occasions.  Furthermore, initiator and target are accessing the next_ORB
field of ORBs concurrently and asynchronously.

This patch does:
 - Protect all initiator accesses to last_orb by sbp2_command_orb_lock.
 - Add pci_dma_sync_single_for_device before a previously submitted
   ORB's next_ORB field is overwritten.
 - Insert a memory barrier between when next_ORB_lo and next_ORB_hi are
   overwritten.  Next_ORB_hi must not be updated before next_ORB_lo.
 - Remove the rather unspecific and now superfluous qualifier "volatile"
   from the next_ORB fields.
 - Add comments on how last_orb is connected with what is known about
   the target's fetch agent's state.

9951903e61 ieee1394: shrink tlabel pools, remove tpool semaphores
This patch reduces the size of struct hpsb_host and also removes
semaphores from ieee1394_transactions.c.  On i386, struct hpsb_host
shrinks from 10656 bytes to 6688 bytes.  This is accomplished by
 - using a single wait_queue for hpsb_get_tlabel instead of many
   instances of semaphores,
 - using a single lock to serialize access to all tlabel pools (the
   protected code regions are small, i.e. lock contention very low),
 - omitting the sysfs attribute tlabels_allocations.

Drawback:  In the rare case that a process needs to sleep because all
transaction labels for the node are temporarily exhausted, it is also
woken up if a tlabel for a different node became free, checks for an
available tlabel, and is put to sleep again.  The check is not costly
and the situation occurs extremely rarely.  (Tlabels are typically
only exhausted if there was no context switch to the khpsbpkt thread
which recycles tlables.)  Therefore the benefit of reduced tpool size
outweighs this drawback.

The sysfs attributes tlabels_free and tlabels_mask are not compiled
anymore unless CONFIG_IEEE1394_VERBOSEDEBUG is set.

The by far biggest member of struct hpsb_host, the struct csr_control
csr (5272 bytes on i386), is now placed at the end of struct hpsb_host.

Note, hpsb_get_tlabel calls the macro wait_event_interruptible with a
condition argument which has a side effect (allocation of a tlabel and
manipulation of the packet).  This side effect happens only if the
condition is true.  The patch relies on wait_event_interruptible not
evaluating the condition again after it became true.
