[PATCH 2/2 update] ieee1394: sbp2: enable auto spin-up for all SBP-2devices

From: Stefan Richter
Date: Thu Sep 07 2006 - 19:42:41 EST


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.

Patch updated (refreshed) to be applicable without the obsolete patch
"ieee1394: sbp2: workaround for write protect bit of Initio firmware".

Intendend to be dropped into the same place in -mm's order of patches as
before. It's not hard to resolve it manually though.
