[PATCH 4/6] ide: remove IDE_TFLAG_NO_SELECT_MASK taskfile flag
Always call SELECT_MASK(..., 0) in ide_tf_load() (needs to be done to match ide_set_irq(..., 1)) and then remove IDE_TFLAG_NO_SELECT_MASK taskfile flag. This change should only affect hpt366 and icside host drivers since ->maskproc(..., 0) for sgiioc4 is equivalent to ide_set_irq(..., 1). Cc: Sergei Shtylyov <... 7 May 2008 13:25

[PATCH 6/6] ide: remove ->mmio flag from ide_hwif_t
Since scc_pata host driver no longer uses IDE PCI layer / ide_dma_setup() and all other ->mmio users set also IDE_HFLAG_MMIO host flag we can safely remove ->mmio flag. There should be no functional changes caused by this patch. Signed-off-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier(a)gmail.com> --- drivers/ide/ar... 7 May 2008 13:25

[PATCH 5/6] ide: move IRQ unmasking out from ->tf_load method
Move IRQ unmasking out from ->tf_load method to its users. There should be no functional changes caused by this patch (SELECT_MASK() is NOP except for hpt366, icside and sgiioc4).

[PATCH 3/6] ide: fix do_probe() to use SELECT_DRIVE()
Fix one place in do_probe() which used ->OUTB directly instead of calling SELECT_DRIVE() (so ->selectproc method is also used).

[PATCH 1/6] sgiioc4: use ->extra_base instead of ->dma_status for dma_handle

[PATCH 1/9] viafb: VIA Frame Buffer Device Driver - Resend
Hi Joseph, You have sent tremendous amount of work. I am trying to point some mistakes or improvements, but I won't cover the whole code at the moment. Look at them and check if the rest of the code can be improved as well. A general comment is that you use to many global variables. You should move some of th... 7 May 2008 13:25
