This patch results in a boot failure in some of my powerpc boot tests,
specifically those testing boots from mptsas1068 devices. Error message:
mptsas 0000:00:02.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)
mptbase: ioc0: Initiating bringup
ioc0: LSISAS1068 A0: Capabilities={Initiator}
mptbase: ioc0: ERROR - Unable to allocate Reply, Request, Chain Buffers!
mptbase: ioc0: ERROR - didn't initialize properly! (-3)
mptsas: probe of 0000:00:02.0 failed with error -3
Configuration is bamboo:44x/bamboo_defconfig plus various added drivers.
Qemu command line is
qemu-system-ppc -kernel vmlinux -M bamboo \
-m 256 -no-reboot -snapshot -device mptsas1068,id=scsi \
-device scsi-hd,bus=scsi.0,drive=d0,wwn=0x5000c50015ea71ac -drive \
file=rootfs.ext2,format=raw,if=none,id=d0 \
--append "panic=-1 slub_debug=FZPUA root=/dev/sda mem=256M console=ttyS0" \
-monitor none -nographic
canyonlands_defconfig with sam460ex machine and otherwise similar command line
fails as well.
Reverting this patch fixes the problem.
