commit 45c44b5ff9caa743ed9c2bfd44307c536c9caf1e upstream.

Increase the default init stage change timeout from 15 seconds to 30 seconds.
This resolves issues we have seen with some adapters not transitioning
to the first init stage within 15 seconds, which results in adapter
initialization failures.

commit 74856fbf441929918c49ff262ace9835048e4e6a upstream.

256 bytes per sector support has been broken since 2.6.X,
and no-one stepped up to fix this.
So disable support for it.

commit 118c855b5623f3e2e6204f02623d88c09e0c34de upstream.

The 3w-9xxx driver needs to tear down the dma mappings before returning
the command to the midlayer, as there is no guarantee the sglist and
count are valid after that point.  Also remove the dma mapping helpers
which have another inherent race due to the request_id index.

<title>SCSI: add 1024 max sectors black list flag</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 35e9a9f93994d7f7d12afa41169c7ba05513721b upstream.

This works around a issue with qnap iscsi targets not handling large IOs
very well.

The target returns:

VPD INQUIRY: Block limits page (SBC)
  Maximum compare and write length: 1 blocks
  Optimal transfer length granularity: 1 blocks
  Maximum transfer length: 4294967295 blocks
  Optimal transfer length: 4294967295 blocks
  Maximum prefetch, xdread, xdwrite transfer length: 0 blocks
  Maximum unmap LBA count: 8388607
  Maximum unmap block descriptor count: 1
  Optimal unmap granularity: 16383
  Unmap granularity alignment valid: 0
  Unmap granularity alignment: 0
  Maximum write same length: 0xffffffff blocks
  Maximum atomic transfer length: 0
  Atomic alignment: 0
  Atomic transfer length granularity: 0

and it is *sometimes* able to handle at least one IO of size up to 8 MB. We
have seen in traces where it will sometimes work, but other times it
looks like it fails and it looks like it returns failures if we send
multiple large IOs sometimes. Also it looks like it can return 2 different
errors. It will sometimes send iscsi reject errors indicating out of
resources or it will send invalid cdb illegal requests check conditions.
And then when it sends iscsi rejects it does not seem to handle retries
when there are command sequence holes, so I could not just add code to
try and gracefully handle that error code.

The problem is that we do not have a good contact for the company,
so we are not able to determine under what conditions it returns
which error and why it sometimes works.

So, this patch just adds a new black list flag to set targets like this to
the old max safe sectors of 1024. The max_hw_sectors changes added in 3.19
caused this regression, so I also ccing stable.

We only want to steer the I/O completion towards a queue, but don't
actually access any per-CPU data, so the raw_ version is fine to use
and avoids the warnings when using smp_processor_id().

<title>PCI: Convert pcibios_resource_to_bus() to take a pci_bus, not a pci_dev</title>

commit fc2798502f860b18f3c7121e4dc659d3d9d28d74 upstream.

These interfaces:

  pcibios_resource_to_bus(struct pci_dev *dev, *bus_region, *resource)
  pcibios_bus_to_resource(struct pci_dev *dev, *resource, *bus_region)

took a pci_dev, but they really depend only on the pci_bus.  And we want to
use them in resource allocation paths where we have the bus but not a
device, so this patch converts them to take the pci_bus instead of the
pci_dev:

  pcibios_resource_to_bus(struct pci_bus *bus, *bus_region, *resource)
  pcibios_bus_to_resource(struct pci_bus *bus, *resource, *bus_region)

In fact, with standard PCI-PCI bridges, they only depend on the host
bridge, because that's the only place address translation occurs, but
we aren't going that far yet.
