This is in #upstream-fixes... Each libata command is now two lock-ops less expensive... for free! Should be nice for multi-core SSD users etc. (not a pull request, Linus, just an FYI) commit 02ab5c49284c91901cad783921e816297c92ebf8 Author: Jeff Garzik <jeff@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Nov 17 01:19:11 2010 -0500 [libata] kill unlock+relock cycle in SCSI queuecommand hook Now that SCSI's ->queuecommand hook is unlocked, ATA no longer needs to unlock the SCSI host_lock prior to work, and re-lock the host_lock once our work is complete.
