There really isnt any sane way to break this patch down because all the changes are interlinked so closely.at least /proc/ide/hd?/settings:ide-scsi removal and doc fixes are very easy to separate, I also think that locking fixes should be separated from hotplugging onesI continue to believe splitting the locking and hotplugging ones are essentially impossible without inventing a fake never written version. The other stuff can probably be done. If you can let me know which bits you are going to apply I can work on sorting out the rest. In the meantime I'll keep a -ac patch for people who want to work on the IDE bits or who need the fixes and driver updates.
I'm going to apply "easy" stuff first: - /proc/ide/hd?/settings:ide-scsi removal (patch attached for your convenience) - DocBook fixes - misc comments fixes - bad geometry hang fix - no slave/master decoding workaround - ... I will defer applying locking/hotpluggin fixes - I need to fully understand them and check that they don't break anything - and ITE driver - it needs some minor cleanup first, also I want to check if we can't go with libata for it... [PATCH] ide: remove /proc/ide/hd?/settings:ide-scsi / HDIO_SET_IDE_SCSI ioctl As noticed by Alan Cox: "It doesn't work now so it clearly isnt being used 8). We hold the lock because its a proc function and we then replace the proc functions in the attach method -> deadlock. It is also incredibly hard to fix without a major rewrite." The same is true for HDIO_SET_IDE_SCSI ioctl. Both were broken 18 months ago in 2.5.63 as a side-effect of Alan's locking fixes for ide settings and AFAIR there wasn't any complains about it. Also /proc/ide/hd?/driver interface is still available.
