The original workaround for the Promise ASIC PRD bug
contained an endianess bug which I failed to detect:
the adjustment of the last PRD entry's length field
applied host arithmetic to little-endian data, which
is incorrect on big-endian machines.
We have the length available in host-endian format, so
do the adjustment on host-endian data and then convert
and store it in the PRD entry's little-endian data field.
Thanks to an anonymous reviewer for detecting this bug.

Implement ATA_QCFLAG_QUIET which indicates that there's no need to
report if the command fails with AC_ERR_DEV and set it for passthrough
commands.
Combined with previous changes, this now makes device errors for all
direct commands reported directly to the issuer without going through
EH actions and reporting.
Note that EH is still invoked after non-IO device errors to determine
the nature of the error and resume command execution (some controller
requires special care after error to continue). It just performs
default maintenance after error, examines what's going on, realizes
that it's none of its business and reports the command failure without
logging any error messages.

libata EH always revalidated device and retried failed command after
error except for ATAPI CCs. This is unnecessary and hinders with
users issuing direct commands. This patch makes the following
changes.
* Make sata_sil24 not request ATA_EH_REVALIDATE on device errors.
sil24 is the only driver which does this. All others let libata EH
core code decide.
* Don't request revalidation after device error of non-IO command.
Revalidation doesn't really help anybody. As ATA_EH_REVALIDATE
isn't set by default, there's no reason to clear it after sense data
is read. Kill ATA_EH_REVALIDATE clearing code while at it.
* Don't retry non-IO command after device error. Device has rejected
the command. There's no point in retrying.

ATA_QCFLAG_IO is used to mark commands which are used to perform
regluar IO transfers via block layer. These commands are assumed to
be valid and taken more seriously during error handling. Cache flush
is used by regular IO path and necessary for data integrity. Mark it
with ATA_QCFLAG_IO.

Second-generation Promise SATA controllers have an ASIC bug
which can trigger if the last PRD entry is larger than 164 bytes,
resulting in intermittent errors and possible data corruption.
Work around this by replacing calls to ata_qc_prep() with a
private version that fills the PRD, checks the size of the
last entry, and if necessary splits it to avoid the bug.
Also reduce sg_tablesize by 1 to accommodate the new entry.
Tested on the second-generation SATA300 TX4 and SATA300 TX2plus,
and the first-generation PDC20378.
Thanks to Alexander Sabourenkov for verifying the bug by
studying the vendor driver, and for writing the initial patch
upon which this one is based.

This patch will set the correct bits to turn on Aggressive
Link Power Management (ALPM) for the ahci driver. This
will cause the controller and disk to negotiate a lower
power state for the link when there is no activity (see
the AHCI 1.x spec for details). This feature is mutually
exclusive with Hot Plug, so when ALPM is enabled, Hot Plug
is disabled. ALPM will be enabled by default, but it is
settable via the scsi host syfs interface. Possible
settings for this feature are:
Setting Effect
----------------------------------------------------------
min_power ALPM is enabled, and link set to enter
lowest power state (SLUMBER) when idle
Hot plug not allowed.
max_performance ALPM is disabled, Hot Plug is allowed
medium_power ALPM is enabled, and link set to enter
second lowest power state (PARTIAL) when
idle. Hot plug not allowed.

Device Initiated Power Management, which is defined
in SATA 2.5 can be enabled for disks which support it.
This patch enables DIPM when the user sets the link
power management policy to "min_power".
Additionally, libata drivers can define a function
(enable_pm) that will perform hardware specific actions to
enable whatever power management policy the user set up
for Host Initiated Power management (HIPM).
This power management policy will be activated after all
disks have been enumerated and intialized. Drivers should
also define disable_pm, which will turn off link power
management, but not change link power management policy.
Documentation/scsi/link_power_management_policy.txt has additional
information.
