[git patches] atang tree: parallel scanning improvements

From: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz
Date: Thu Feb 18 2010 - 13:59:43 EST


DISCLAIMER: the fact of getting patches merged into atang tree means
that from now on they will be getting updates for changes happening
in atang tree and it should not be treated as an indication regarding
decisions taken by 'upstream' kernel trees


Allow parallel scan and the like to be set without having to stop using
the existing full helper functions (this is based on a upstream proposal
patch from Alan Cox) and add parallel scanning feature for older Intel
PATA controllers.

[ Patches for other controllers are welcomed and I will also continue
progressively adding parallel scanning while fixing/testing drivers. ]
