[GIT PULL 2/2] libata changes for v4.18-rc1
From: Tejun Heo
Date: Tue Jun 05 2018 - 15:15:42 EST
Hello, Linus.
This is the second part of libata pull request.
* libata has always been limiting the maximum queue depth to 31, 1 set
aside mostly for historical reasons. This didn't use to make much
difference but Jens found out that modern hard drives can actually
perform measurably better with the extra one queue depth. Jens
updated libata core so that it can make use of full 32 queue depth.
* Damien updated command retry logic in error handling so that it
doesn't unnecessarily retry when upper layer (SCSI) is gonna handle
them.
* A couple misc changes.
Thanks.
