Pull libata changes from Tejun Heo:
 "The only interesting piece is the support for shingled drives.  The
  changes in libata layer are minimal.  All it does is identifying the
  new class of device and report upwards accordingly"

* 'for-3.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/libata:
  libata: Remove FIXME comment in atapi_request_sense()
  sata_rcar: Document deprecated "renesas,rcar-sata"
  sata_rcar: Add clocks to sata_rcar bindings
  ahci_sunxi: Make AHCI_HFLAG_NO_PMP flag configurable with a module option
  libata-scsi: Update SATL for ZAC drives
  libata: Implement ATA_DEV_ZAC
  libsas: use ata_dev_classify()

Since we got rid of ordered tag support in 2010 the prime use case of
switching on and off ordered tags has been obsolete.  The other function
of enabling/disabling tagging entirely has only been correctly implemented
by the 53c700 driver and isn't generally useful.

The task_collector mode (or "latency_injector", (C) Dan Willians) is an
optional I/O path in libsas that queues up scsi commands instead of
directly sending it to the hardware.  It generall increases latencies
to in the optiomal case slightly reduce mmio traffic to the hardware.

Only the obsolete aic94xx driver and the mvsas driver allowed to use
it without recompiling the kernel, and most drivers didn't support it
at all.

Remove the giant blob of code to allow better optimizations for scsi-mq
in the future.

All drivers use the implementation for ramping the queue up and down, so
instead of overloading the change_queue_depth method call the
implementation diretly if the driver opts into it by setting the
track_queue_depth flag in the host template.

Note that a few drivers validated the new queue depth in their
change_queue_depth method, but as we never go over the queue depth
set during slave_configure or the sysfs file this isn't nessecary
and can safely be removed.

<title>scsi: always assign block layer tags if enabled</title>

Allow a driver to ask for block layer tags by setting .use_blk_tags in the
host template, in which case it will always see a valid value in
request-&gt;tag, similar to the behavior when using blk-mq.  This means even
SCSI "untagged" commands will now have a tag, which is especially useful
when using a host-wide tag map.
