[PATCH] libata: implement ata_poll_qc_complete and use it in polling functions
[PATCH libata-dev-2.6:upstream] implement ata_poll_qc_complete and use it in polling functions
Previously, libata polling functions turned irq back on and completed
qc commands without holding host lock. This creates a race condition
between the polling task and interrupts from other ports on the same
host set or spurious interrupt from itself.
This patch implements ata_poll_qc_complete which enables irq and
completes qc atomically and convert all polling functions.
Note: atapi_packet_task() didn't use to turn irq back on or clear
ATA_FLAG_NOINTR on error exits. This patch makes it use
ata_poll_qc_complete which does both.
Note: With this change, ALL invocations of ata_qc_complete() are now
done under host_set lock.
