commit db5ff909798ef0099004ad50a0ff5fde92426fd1 upstream.

LITEON EP1 has the same timeout issues as CX1 series devices.

Revert max_sectors to the value of 1024.

[ Upstream commit 0580b762a4d6b70817476b90042813f8573283fa ]

ata_sff_qc_issue() expects upper layers to never issue commands on a
command protocol that it doesn't implement.  While the assumption
holds fine with the usual IO path, nothing filters based on the
command protocol in the passthrough path (which was added later),
allowing the warning to be tripped with a passthrough command with the
right (well, wrong) protocol.

Failing with AC_ERR_SYSTEM is the right thing to do anyway.  Remove
the unnecessary WARN.

<title>ata: fixes kernel crash while tracing ata_eh_link_autopsy event</title>

commit f1601113ddc0339a745e702f4fb1ca37d4875e65 upstream.

When tracing ata link error event, the kernel crashes when the disk is
removed due to NULL pointer access by trace_ata_eh_link_autopsy API.
This occurs as the dev is NULL when the disk disappeared. This patch
fixes this crash by calling trace_ata_eh_link_autopsy only if "dev"
is not NULL.

v2 changes:
 Removed direct passing "link" pointer instead of "dev" in trace API.

[ Upstream commit d85fc67dd11e9a32966140677d4d6429ca540b25 ]

Without this patch, failed probe would not free resources like irq.

ata port tdev object currently hold a reference to the ata port
object.  Therefore the ata port object release function will not get
called until the ata_tport_release is called. But that would never
happen, releasing the last reference of ata port dev is done by
scsi_host_release, which is called by ata_host_release when the ata
port object is released.

The ata device objects actually do not need to explicitly hold a
reference to their real counterpart, given the transport objects are
the children of these objects and device_add() is call for each child.
We know the parent will not be deleted until we call the child's
device_del().

<title>sata_via: Enable hotplug only on VT6421</title>

[ Upstream commit 3cf864520e877505158f09075794a08abab11bbe ]

Commit 57e5568fda27 ("sata_via: Implement hotplug for VT6421") adds
hotplug IRQ handler for VT6421 but enables hotplug on all chips. This
is a bug because it causes "irq xx: nobody cared" error on VT6420 when
hot-(un)plugging a drive:

Seems that VT6420 can do hotplug too (there's no documentation) but the
comments say that SCR register access (required for detecting hotplug
events) can cause problems on these chips.

For now, just keep hotplug disabled on anything other than VT6421.

Seems that VT6420 can do hotplug too (there's no documentation) but the
comments say that SCR register access (required for detecting hotplug
events) can cause problems on these chips.

For now, just keep hotplug disabled on anything other than VT6421.

commit 591b6bb605785c12a21e8b07a08a277065b655a5 upstream.

Several legacy devices such as Geode-based Cisco ASA appliances
and DB800 development board do possess CS5536 IDE controller
with different PCI id than existing one. Using pata_generic is
not always feasible as at least DB800 requires MSR quirk from
pata_cs5536 to be used with vendor firmware.

commit 59a5e266c3f5c1567508888dd61a45b86daed0fa upstream.

My static checker complains that "devno" can be negative, meaning that
we read before the start of the loop.  I've looked at the code, and I
think the warning is right.  This come from /proc so it's root only or
it would be quite a quite a serious bug.  The call tree looks like this:

proc_scsi_write() &lt;- gets id and channel from simple_strtoul()
-&gt; scsi_add_single_device() &lt;- calls shost-&gt;transportt-&gt;user_scan()
   -&gt; ata_scsi_user_scan()
      -&gt; ata_find_dev()
