I still principally dislike this threading of the operation up and down
the stack. Although we've done it before, we're trying to get away from
the paradigm of driver conditions to scsi and scsi conditions to block
for all stuff where driver could condition straight to block (alignment
is a classic example of the new way of doing things).
The reason you need the threading is because the block ops gets hidden
at the top of the stack in the upper layers (this was a design choice to
try to prevent the lower layers mucking with it). The way we get around
this is to use a queue operation instead. As far as I can tell, there's
no logical reason for the unlock to be a block op, so lets make it a
queue op instead. The consumer in
static bool disk_unlock_native_capacity(struct gendisk *disk)
then becomes
blk_unlock_native_capacity(disk->queue)
Block's implementation of this would probably call directly through the
queue.
You place the usual function in the queue template so the ata slave
configure can say
blk_queue_unlock_native_function(rq, <unlock_function>)
Then there's no need for anything at all in SCSI ... and it becomes a
whole lot more obvious how to do legacy ide (if we ever get problems
there).
