      ahci, pata_marvell: play nicely together · 5b66c829
      Alan Cox 提交于
      I've been chasing Jeff about this for months.  Jeff added the Marvell
      device identifiers to the ahci driver without making the AHCI driver
      handle the PATA port. This means a lot of users can't use current
      kernels and in most distro cases can't even install.
      
      This has been going on since March 2008 for the 6121 Marvell, and late 2007
      for the 6145!!!
      
      This was all pointed out at the time and repeatedly ignored. Bugs assigned
      to Jeff about this are ignored also.

      (Which isn't trivial, isn't end user, shouldn't be needed, and as it usually
      breaks at install time is in fact impossible)
      
      To quote Jeff in August 2007

      Only he add the ids anyway later and caused regressions, adding a further
      id in March causing more regresions.
      
      The actual fix for the moment is very simple. If the user has included
      the pata_marvell driver let it drive the ports. If they've only selected
      for SATA support give them the AHCI driver which will run the port a fraction
      faster. Allow the user to control this decision via ahci.marvell_enable as
      a module parameter so that distributions can ship 'it works' defaults and
      smarter users (or config tools) can then flip it over it desired.

      sparc: remove CONFIG_SUN4 · 5110bd21
      Adrian Bunk 提交于
      While doing some easy cleanups on the sparc code I noticed that the
      CONFIG_SUN4 code seems to be worse than the rest - there were some
      "I don't know how it should work, but the current code definitely cannot
      work." places.
      
      And while I have seen people running Linux on machines like a
      SPARCstation 5 a few years ago I don't recall having seen sun4
      machines, even less ones running Linux.

      Add help info for BLK_DEV_SD referring to its use in
      SATA or PATA driver configurations.
      
      Add help text for "ATA" indicating that it probably needs
      some SCSI config symbols enabled in order to be useful.
