* Change ide_get_paired_drive() to return NULL if peer device
is not present and update all users accordingly.
While at it:
* ide_get_paired_drive() -> ide_get_pair_dev()
* Use ide_get_pair_dev() in cs5530.c, sc1200.c and via82cxxx.c.

* Factor out HDIO_[OBSOLETE,GET]_IDENTITY ioctls handling

* Use temporary buffer in ide_get_identity_ioctl() instead
of accessing drive->id directly.

* Use ide_id_to_hd_driveid() in ide_get_identity_ioctl(),
cleanup ide_fix_driveid() and switch ide to use use raw id.
* Remove no longer needed drive->driveid.

Make drive->id an unnamed union so id can be accessed either by using
'u16 *id' or 'struct hd_driveid *driveid'. Then convert all existing
drive->id users accordingly (using 'u16 *id' when possible).

Currently we disable barriers as soon as we get a buffer in xlog_iodone
that has the XBF_ORDERED flag cleared. But this can be the case not only
for buffers where the barrier failed, but also the first buffer of a
split log write in case of a log wraparound. Due to the disabled
barriers we can easily get directory corruption on unclean shutdowns.
So instead of using this check add a new buffer flag for failed barrier
writes.
This is a regression vs 2.6.26 caused by patch to use the right macro
to check for the ORDERED flag, as we previously got true returned for
every buffer.
Thanks to Toei Rei for reporting the bug.

We already did that a long time ago for pnp_system_init, but
pnpacpi_init and pnpbios_init remained as subsys_initcalls, and get
linked into the kernel before the arch-specific routines that finalize
the PCI resources (pci_subsys_init).
This means that the PnP routines would either register their resources
before the PCI layer could, or would be unable to check whether a PCI
resource had already been registered. Both are problematic.
I wanted to do this before 2.6.27, but every time we change something
like this, something breaks. That said, _every_ single time we trust
some firmware (like PnP tables) more than we trust the hardware itself
(like PCI probing), the problems have been worse.

Don't wait between submitting crypt requests for a bio unless
we are short of memory.
There are two situations when we must split an encrypted bio:
1) there are no free pages;
2) the new bio would violate underlying device restrictions

In case (2) we do not need to wait.

dm-raid1 is setting the 'DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR' flag unconditionally
when assigning kcopyd work. kcopyd is responsible for copying an
assigned section of disk to one or more other disks. The
'DM_KCOPYD_IGNORE_ERROR' flag affects kcopyd in the following way:
When not set:
kcopyd will immediately stop the copy operation when an error is
encountered.
When set:
kcopyd will try to proceed regardless of errors and try to continue
copying any remaining amount.
Since dm-raid1 tracks regions of the address space that are (or
are not) in sync and it now has the ability to handle these
errors, we can safely enable this optimization. This optimization
is conditional on whether mirror error handling has been enabled.
