The following patches are a against the bk scsi-locking-2.5 tree.
The big change is the removal of the lock hierarchy.
James - could you please apply these incoming patches to the
scsi-locking-2.5 tree, comment, and/or push to Linus (or scsi-misc)?
If the opinion is that this needs more runtime, other changes, or more
performance comparisons, I can do so.
The patches do seem to increase the likelyhood of hitting a race in the
aic driver (the patch Zwane posted to have aic use del_timer_sync, and
is currently in the akpm mm patch).
I do not think the extra blk queue init/frees are bad, especially with
Jens working on dynamic req allocation.
Thanks.
