peration returns %true, ->sff_check_status() and ->sff_irq_clear() will be cleared for the port. Note that this doesn't mark the interrupt as handled so it won't prevent IRQ subsystem from killing the IRQ if this mechanism fails to clear the spurious IRQ. This patch also implements ->sff_irq_check() for ata_piix. Note that this adds slight overhead to shared IRQ operation as IRQs which are destined for other controllers will trigger extra register accesses to check whether IDE interrupt is pending but this solves rare screaming IRQ cases and for some curious reason also helps weird BIOS related glitch on Samsung n130 as reported in bko#14314. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14314 * piix_base_ops dropped as suggested by Sergei. * Spurious IRQ detection doesn't kick in anymore if polling qc is in progress. This provides less protection but some controllers have possible data corruption issues if the wrong register is accessed while a command is in progress.
