Current HSPI driver is using msleep(20) on hspi_status_check_timeout(),
but it was too long delay for SPI device.
Bock-W board SPI access was too slow without this patch.
This patch uses udelay(10) for it.

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
- More work on DT support for various platforms
- Various fixes that were to late to make it straight into 3.9
- Improved platform support, in particular the Netlogic XLR and
BCM63xx, and the SEAD3 and Malta eval boards.
- Support for several Ralink SOC families.
- Complete support for the microMIPS ASE which basically reencodes the
existing MIPS32/MIPS64 ISA to use non-constant size instructions.
- Some fallout from LTO work which remove old cruft and will generally
make the MIPS kernel easier to maintain and resistant to compiler
optimization, even in absence of LTO.
- KVM support. While MIPS has announced hardware virtualization
extensions this KVM extension uses trap and emulate mode for
virtualization of MIPS32. More KVM work to add support for VZ
hardware virtualizaiton extensions and MIPS64 will probably already
be merged for 3.11.
Most of this has been sitting in -next for a long time. All defconfigs
have been build or run time tested except three for which fixes are being
sent by other maintainers.

sas_device_type
These enums have been separate since the dawn of SAS, mainly because the
latter is a procotol only enum and the former includes additional state
for libsas. The dichotomy causes endless confusion about which one you
should use where and leads to pointless warnings like this:
drivers/scsi/mvsas/mv_sas.c: In function 'mvs_update_phyinfo':
drivers/scsi/mvsas/mv_sas.c:1162:34: warning: comparison between 'enum sas_device_type' and 'enum sas_dev_type' [-Wenum-compare]
Fix by eliminating one of them. The one kept is effectively the sas.h
one, but call it sas_device_type and make sure the enums are all
properly namespaced with the SAS_ prefix.

scsi_send_eh_cmnd() is calling queuecommand() directly, so
it needs to check the return value here.
The only valid return codes for queuecommand() are 'busy'

This patch uses memalloc_noio_save to avoid a possible deadlock in
dm-bufio. (it could happen only with large block size, at most
PAGE_SIZE << MAX_ORDER (typically 8MiB).
__vmalloc doesn't fully respect gfp flags. The specified gfp flags are
used for allocation of requested pages, structures vmap_area, vmap_block
and vm_struct and the radix tree nodes.
However, the kernel pagetables are allocated always with GFP_KERNEL.
Thus the allocation of pagetables can recurse back to the I/O layer and
cause a deadlock.
This patch uses the function memalloc_noio_save to set per-process
PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag and the function memalloc_noio_restore to restore
it. When this flag is set, all allocations in the process are done with
implied GFP_NOIO flag, thus the deadlock can't happen.
This should be backported to stable kernels, but they don't have the
PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag and memalloc_noio_save/memalloc_noio_restore
functions. So, PF_MEMALLOC should be set and restored instead.

Fix a regression in the calculation of the stripe_width in the
dm stripe target which led to incorrect processing of device limits.
The stripe_width is the stripe device length divided by the number of
stripes. The group of commits in the range f14fa69 ("dm stripe: fix
size test") to eb850de ("dm stripe: support for non power of 2
chunksize") interfered with each other (a merging error) and led to the
stripe_width being set incorrectly to the stripe device length divided by
chunk_size * stripe_count.
For example, a stripe device's table with: 0 33553920 striped 3 512 ...
should result in a stripe_width of 11184640 (33553920 / 3), but due to
the bug it was getting set to 21845 (33553920 / (512 * 3)).
The impact of this bug is that device topologies that previously worked
fine with the stripe target are no longer considered valid. In
particular, there is a higher risk of seeing this issue if one of the
stripe devices has a 4K logical block size. Resulting in an error
message like this:
"device-mapper: table: 253:4: len=21845 not aligned to h/w logical block size 4096 of dm-1"
The fix is to swap the order of the divisions and to use a temporary
variable for the second one, so that width retains the intended
value.

"Lots of exciting new features in the NVM Express driver this time,
including support for emulating SCSI commands, discard support and the
ability to submit per-sector metadata with I/Os.
It's still mostly bugfixes though!"
