With the sg table code, every SCSI driver is now either chain capable
or broken (or has sg_tablesize set so chaining is never activated), so
there's no need to have a check in the host template.

Also tidy up the code by moving the scatterlist size defines into the
SCSI includes and permit the last entry of the scatterlist pools not
to be a power of two.

<title>[SCSI] initio: fix module hangs on loading</title>

I've verified (on my Initio 9100 with a DAT drive) that the
2.6.24-rc8-git6 initio module still hangs on loading.

These fixes (other than the printk) are needed to get the module to load
ok (and work correctly) with my adapter &amp; tape drive.

a) printk cosmetic fix

b) cblk-&gt;sglen needs setting for later DMA I/O routines to use

c) host-&gt;bios_addr needs setting for debug output correctness

d) semaph &amp; semaph_lock initialisation had got lost since 2.6.22

e) since 2.6.22 the bios data address was truncated to 16 bits (needs 20
when shifted left)

patch: [SCSI] initio: convert to use the data buffer accessors had a
small but fatal bug in that it didn't increment the pointer into the
initio scatterlist descriptors as it looped over the block generated
ones. Fixed here.

&gt; I have a scanner connected to a Initio INI-950 SCSI card and I recently
&gt; upgraded from SuSE 10.2 to 10.3.  The new kernel doesn't see any of my
&gt; devices.  I get the following in /var/log/messages:
&gt;
&gt; ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:0a.0[A] -&gt; GSI 17 (level, low) -&gt; IRQ 16
&gt; initio: I/O port range 0x0 is busy.
&gt; ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:0a.0 disabled

Humm not a collision - thats a bug in the driver updating.  Looks like the
changes I made and combined with Christoph's lost a line somewhere when I
was merging it all.

This option is true if a low-level driver can support sg
chaining. This will be removed eventually when all the drivers are
converted to support sg chaining. q-&gt;max_phys_segments is set to

This is a mix of a grand clean up I did and a reworking of the hotplug
support by Christoph. In testing it works as well as the previous code
did (that is -quite badly-) but we can now read it and as it settles in
actually debug the long standing problems it shares with the old driver.

removal of the BSD license is also fine with me, but should really
get a mention in the changelog aswell.

<title>[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h</title>

<content type='text'>
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.
