Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request. So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases. The patch fixes this.
The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op. Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.
See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.

A recent commit broke the ia64 build:
Author: Don Brace <brace@beardog.cce.hp.com>
Date: Thu Nov 12 12:50:01 2009 -0600
cciss: Add enhanced scatter-gather support.
because of this hunk:
--- a/drivers/block/cciss.h
+++ b/drivers/block/cciss.h
+struct Cmd_sg_list {
+ SGDescriptor_struct *sgchain;
+ dma64_addr_t sg_chain_dma;
+ int chain_block_size;
+};
The issue is that dma64_addr_t isn't #define'd on ia64.
The way that we're using Cmd_sg_list.sg_chain_dma is to hold an
address returned from pci_map_single().
+ temp64.val = pci_map_single(h->pdev,
+ h->cmd_sg_list[c->cmdindex]->sgchain,
+ len, dir);
+
+ h->cmd_sg_list[c->cmdindex]->sg_chain_dma = temp64.val;
pci_map_single() returns a dma_addr_t too.
This code will still work even on a 32-bit x86 build, where
dma_addr_t is defined to be a u32 because it will simply be
promoted to the __u64 that temp64.val is defined as.
Thus, declaring Cmd_sg_list.sg_chain_dma as dma_addr_t is safe.

cciss: Do not automatically rescan on UNIT ATTENTION/LUN DATA CHANGED
There are problems with doing this. If, say, several logical drives
are deleted at once, several such UNIT ATTENTIONS will be encountered,
often during the rescan triggered by the first such UNIT ATTENTION.
The block layer may be in the midst of trying to add logical drives
which were just deleted (resulting in the subsequent UNIT ATTENTION(s).)
Making the rescan code robust enough to tolerate this kind of thing
is too complicated for the moment. So, for now, we just don't do it.
Note: This UNIT ATTENTION/LUN DATA CHANGED situation only occurs on
the MSA2012.

Affected are only nodes in Primary role.

The current PS3 VRAM driver uses msleep() to wait for completion of RSX
DMA transfers between system memory and VRAM. Depending on the system
timing, the processing delay and overhead of this msleep() call can
significantly impact VRAM driver IO.
To avoid the condition, add a short duration (200 usec max) udelay()
polling loop before entering the msleep() polling loop.

Platform drivers registered via platform_driver_probe() can be bound
to devices only once, upon registration, because discard their probe()
routines to save memory. Unbinding the driver through sysfs 'unbind'
leaves the device stranded and confuses users so let's not create

the check was added for another driver to already claim the same device
on the same bus. But the returned error code was wrong: to modprobe, the
-EEXIST means that _this_ driver is already installed. It therefore
doesn't produce the needed error message when _another_ driver is trying
to register for the same device. Returning -EBUSY fixes the problem.

merged as fix in sierra_close() function.
The bug fix in sierra_open() function restores the autopm interface

The bug fix in in stop_read_write_urbs() function assures that both
