hdparm explicitely marks HDIO_[UNREGISTER,SCAN]_HWIF ioctls as DANGEROUS
and given the number of bugs we can assume that there are no real users:
* DMA has no chance of working because DMA resources are released by
ide_unregister() and they are never allocated again.
* Since ide_init_hwif_ports() is used for ->io_ports[] setup the ioctls
don't work for almost all hosts with "non-standard" (== non ISA-like)
layout of IDE taskfile registers (there is a lot of such host drivers).
* ide_port_init_devices() is not called when probing IDE devices so:
- drive->autotune is never set and IDE host/devices are not programmed
for the correct PIO/DMA transfer modes (=> possible data corruption)
- host specific I/O 32-bit and IRQ unmasking settings are not applied
(=> possible data corruption)
- host specific ->port_init_devs method is not called (=> no luck with
ht6560b, qd65xx and opti621 host drivers)
* ->rw_disk method is not preserved (=> no HPT3xxN chipsets support).
* ->serialized flag is not preserved (=> possible data corruption when
using icside, aec62xx (ATP850UF chipset), cmd640, cs5530, hpt366
(HPT3xxN chipsets), rz1000, sc1200, dtc2278 and ht6560b host drivers).
* ->ack_intr method is not preserved (=> needed by ide-cris, buddha,
gayle and macide host drivers).
* ->sata_scr[] and sata_misc[] is cleared by ide_unregister() and it
isn't initialized again (SiI3112 support needs them).
* To issue an ioctl() there need to be at least one IDE device present
in the system.
* ->cable_detect method is not preserved + it is not called when probing
IDE devices so cable detection is broken (however since DMA support is
also broken it doesn't really matter ;-).
* Some objects which may have already been freed in ide_unregister()
are restored by ide_hwif_restore() (i.e. ->hwgroup).
* ide_register_hw() may unregister unrelated IDE ports if free ide_hwifs[]
slot cannot be found.
* When IDE host drivers are modular unregistered port may be re-used by
different host driver that owned it first causing subtle bugs.
Since we now have a proper warm-plug support remove these ioctls,
then remove no longer needed:
- ide_register_hw() and ide_hwif_restore() functions
- 'init_default' and 'restore' arguments of ide_unregister()
- zeroeing of hwif->{dma,extra}_* fields in ide_unregister()
As an added bonus IDE core code size shrinks by ~3kB (x86-32).
v2:
* fix ide_unregister() arguments in cleanup_module() (Andrew Morton).
v3:
* fix ide_unregister() arguments in palm_bk3710.c.

->busproc method is used by HDIO_SET_BUSSTATE ioctl but it has no chance
of working as intended (in 2.4.x days) because to issue an ioctl there
is a device node needed and:
- for BUSSTATE_TRISTATE+OFF it is too late (devices are already gone)
- for BUSSTATE_TRISTATE+ON it is too early (devices are not registered yet)

This fixes DMA on architectures where DMA is nontrivial, like PPC64.
We must use the host-device's (PCI) struct device for any DMA
operation instead of the SSB device. For this we add a new
struct device pointer to the SSB device structure that will always
point to the right device for DMAing.
Without this patch b43 and b44 drivers won't work on complex-DMA

Increase the PNP "number of devices" limit. We currently use an unsigned
char, which limits us to 256 devices per protocol. This patch changes that to
an unsigned int.
Not all backends can take advantage of this: we limit ISAPNP to 10 devices in
isapnp_cfg_begin(), and PNPBIOS is limited to 256 devices because the BIOS
interfaces use a one-byte device node number.
But there is no limit on the number of PNPACPI devices we may have. Large HP
Integrity machines have more than 256, which causes the current "unsigned char
number" to wrap around. This causes errors like this:
pnp: PnP ACPI init

It's really a pretty ugly thing to need, and some day it will hopefully
be obviated by teaching gcc about the magic calling conventions for the
low-level system call code, but in the meantime we can at least add big
honking comments about why we need these insane and strange macros.
I took my comments from my version of the macro, but I ended up deciding
to just pick Roland's version of the actual code instead (with his
prettier syntax that uses vararg macros). Thus the previous two commits
that actually implement it.

The prevent_tail_call() macro works around the problem of the compiler
clobbering argument words on the stack, which for asmlinkage functions
is the caller's (user's) struct pt_regs. The tail/sibling-call
optimization is not the only way that the compiler can decide to use
stack argument words as scratch space, which we have to prevent.
Other optimizations can do it too.
Until we have new compiler support to make "asmlinkage" binding on the
compiler's own use of the stack argument frame, we have work around all
the manifestations of this issue that crop up.
More cases seem to be prevented by also keeping the incoming argument
variables live at the end of the function. This makes their original
stack slots attractive places to leave those variables, so the compiler
tends not clobber them for something else. It's still no guarantee, but
it handles some observed cases that prevent_tail_call() did not.

The 'disable_cb' callback is designed as an optimization to tell the host
we don't need callbacks now. As it is not reliable, the debug check is
overzealous: it can happen on two CPUs at the same time. Document this.
Even if it were reliable, the virtio_net driver doesn't disable
callbacks on transmit so the START_USE/END_USE debugging reentrance
protection can be easily tripped even on UP.

The effects of cgroup_disable=foo are:
- foo isn't auto-mounted if you mount all cgroups in a single hierarchy
- foo isn't visible as an individually mountable subsystem
As a result there will only ever be one call to foo->create(), at init time;
all processes will stay in this group, and the group will never be mounted on
a visible hierarchy. Any additional effects (e.g. not allocating metadata)
are up to the foo subsystem.
This doesn't handle early_init subsystems (their "disabled" bit isn't set be,
but it could easily be extended to do so if any of the early_init systems
wanted it - I think it would just involve some nastier parameter processing
since it would occur before the command-line argument parser had been run.

Ballpark figures, I'm trying to get this question out rather than
processing the exact numbers: CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR adds 15% overhead
to the affected paths, booting with cgroup_disable=memory cuts that back to
1% overhead (due to slightly bigger struct page).
I'm no expert on distros, they may have no interest whatever in
CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR=y; and the rest of us can easily build with or
without it, or apply the cgroup_disable=memory patches.
