[libata sata_mv] do not enable PCI MSI by default

Several bug reports have come in, noting that disabling CONFIG_PCI_MSI
has fixed their problems with this driver.  This may be generic system
issues, but there is also the probability of unimplemented hardware
errata workarounds.  Until this ream of bug reports is sorted out, we
can get them going in non-MSI interrupt mode.

As such, this change adds an 'msi' module option, which defaults to off.

instead of freeing them.  This patch fixes a race between the

to the reiserfs write_ordered_buffers routines to write any anonymous
buffers that were dirtied after its first writeback loop.

That bug works like this:

proc1: transaction closes and a new one starts
proc1: write_ordered_buffers starts processing data=ordered list
proc1: buffer A is cleaned and written
proc2: buffer A is dirtied by another process
proc2: File is truncated to zero, page A goes through invalidatepage
proc2: reiserfs_invalidatepage sees dirty buffer A with reiserfs
       journal head, pins it
proc1: write_ordered_buffers frees the journal head on buffer A

Jan Glauber [Wed, 1 Feb 2006 11:06:32 +0000 (03:06 -0800)]
[PATCH] s390: overflow in sched_clock

The least significant bit of the TOD clock value returned by get_clock
is the 4096th part of a microsecond. To get to nanoseconds the value
needs to be divided by 4096 and multiplied with 1000.

The current method multiplies first and then shifts the value to make the
result as precise as possible.  The disadvantage is that the multiplication
with 1000 will overflow shortly after 52 days.  sched_clock is used by the
scheduler for time stamp deltas, if an overflow occurs between two time stamps
the scheduler will get confused.

With the patch the problem occurs only after approx.  one year, so the chance
to run into this overflow is extremly low.
