There are a few spots in qla1280.c that don't need a full PCI write flush to the device, but rather a simple write ordering guarantee. This patch changes some of the PIO reads that cause write flushes into mmiowb calls instead, which is a lighter weight way of ensuring ordering. Jes and James, can you ack this and/or push it in via the SCSI BK tree? Thanks, Jesse Signed-off-by: Jeremy Higdon Signed-off-by: Jesse Barnes
