[PATCH 0/2] Fix via-ide for fuloong2e

[BALATON Zoltan via]

This implements the legacy-mode emulation option for via-ide which is
needed for Linux on fuloong2e. I've tested that the Debian kernel now
finds CD ROM and MorphOS on pegasos2 is not affected by this.

[PATCH 2/2] via-ide: Fix fuloong2e support

[BALATON Zoltan via]

From: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net>

Fuloong2e needs to use legacy mode for IDE support to work with Linux.
Add property to via-ide driver to make the mode configurable, and set
legacy mode for Fuloong2e.

[PATCH 1/2] ide: Make room for flags in PCIIDEState and add one for legacy mode

[BALATON Zoltan via]

We'll need a flag for implementing some device specific behaviour in
via-ide but we already have a currently CMD646 specific field that can
be repurposed for this and leave room for furhter flags if needed in
the future. This patch changes the "secondary" field to "flags" and
change CMD646 and its users accordingly and define a new flag for
forcing legacy mode that will be used by via-ide for now.

Not really. That patch did what it said (only emulating (half) native mode 
instead of only emulating legacy mode) so it wasn't broken per se but it 
turned out that approach wasn't good enough for all use cases so this now 
takes a different turn (emulating either legacy or half-native mode based 
on option property). Therefore. I don't think Fixes: applies in this case. 
It fixes an issue with a guest but replaces previous patch with different 
approach. (Even though it reuses most of it.)

Well, if Linux guest got broken by this commit, why not name it a "fix"?
Anyway I don't mind how it is called. I find important to refer to the
commit hash to help navigating between commits while reviewing history.

What about:

'''
The legacy mode for IDE support has been removed in commit 4ea98d317eb
("ide/via: Implement and use native PCI IDE mode"). When using a Linux
guest, the Fuloong2e machine requires the legacy mode.
Add property to via-ide driver to make the mode configurable, and set
legacy mode for Fuloong2e.
'''

Guenter, is that OK with you? (I can update when applying this series
via the MIPS tree).

Thanks,

Phil.
