Declare and use constants for CFA specific identify data words 162 and 163.
Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com>

This patch is against the current pata-2.6 series. I'd prefer that Bart merged
it thru his tree as my next patch adding CF mode support to IDE depends on it.

is there a patch 2/2 to go along with this?

I mean why didn't you tell me to resubmit when you split off the ata.h
part of the original patch? I was under impression that you would queue this
part too...

It got lost in the confusion, I suppose. I figured you would resubmit
when you posted the IDE version.
If you recall, you requested that this go via Bart's tree on March 3rd.
Then Bart did a big push without it. So, to prevent delaying you
further, I split off the ata.h patch and forwarded that upstream.

Heh, you make it sound like I was delaying Sergei's work...
On March 3rd Sergei has posted initial CFA patches for review + testing by
Stanislaw (at91_ide Author), with the following extra information contained
in patches:
"[PATCH 1/2] libata: add CFA specific identify data words" said:
...
This patch is against the current pata-2.6 series. I'd prefer that Bart merged
it thru his tree as my next patch adding CF mode support to IDE depends on it.
...
"[PATCH 2/2] ide: add support for CFA specified transfer modes":
...
This patch is against the current pata-2.6 series. Since there were no PIO5
capable hard drives produced and you also need 66 MHz input clock to actually
get the difference WRT the setup timing programmed, I decided to simply replace
the old non-standard PIO mode 5 timings with CFA specified ones.
Phew, hopefully I haven't overlooked anything -- quite a lot had to be changed.
Stanislaw, please give it a try -- I don't have any CF hardware now.
...
Patch 1/2 was acked by you on March 4th. However patch 2/2 was still going
through review and few issues needing addressing were raised (subsequently
revised versions of patch were posted on March 10th and later on March 11th).
The next day (March 5th) while I was pushing "IDE fixes" pull request (we
were in the 2.6.29-rc7 stabilization period at that time) you stepped in
(cc:ing Linus and Andrew) with:
"[PATCH] libata: add CFA specific identify data words"
which contained following info:
...
Sergei said:
This patch is against the current pata-2.6 series. I'd prefer that Bart merged
it thru his tree as my next patch adding CF mode support to IDE depends on it.
jgarzik adds:
I didn't see this in your latest submission, Bart. It is simple and
harmless and might as well go ahead upstream, to eliminate the
cross-tree dependency that Sergei speaks of (his patch also touched
drivers/ata/libata-core.c, but I excluded that from below).
...
to which I replied:
...
Simply because I haven't yet got to those patches + Sergei mentioned
that they need to be tested yet.
...
Fine with me if this makes things easier for everyone.
I updated git pull request with this patch fixing patch summary
(this is not libata specific change) and patch description (constants
are not currently unused) while at it.
...
As I see it, there was absolutely no need to rush things -- I simply didn't
get to processing newer submissions yet and I would just push Sergei's patch
in the next IDE pull request (which happened on March 13th).
Simple reminder/query about the patch status would be more than enough but
instead you wasted time for everybody by splitting libata part from Sergei's
patch (without updating patch summary+description which I had to fix) and
later forgotting about it. Moreover instead of simply pushing forgotten
part yourself you requested Sergei to resubmit it and at the same time you
tried to put the blame about the whole situation on me.
Thanks,
Bart

That is an IDE-centric perspective. It was a cross-tree depedency, and
_I_ should not need to wait for you, particularly when you are
constantly complaining about lacking time for IDE maintenance.

The onus is always on the submittor to monitor their patches, resubmit,
etc. It is simply not scalable to constantly ping submittors, keep
track of their individual development schedules, etc.

The patch had _zero_ IDE specific changes, you didn't have to wait for me.
You could have simply pushed the whole Sergei's patch yourself and indeed
this will make things more efficient for everybody.

In the end it is your responsibility as the Maintainer to get their patches
merged (== keep the project flourishing). Plus keeping in touch with people
submitting you patches and knowing (more-or-less) their individual schedules
is a key into properly planning merges or large scale changes. Though YMMV
as there is no one perfect way of doing things befitting all people.
Thanks,
Bart
