parisc/pci: Switch LBA PCI bus from Hard Fail to Soft Fail mode
Carlo Pisani noticed that his C3600 workstation behaved unstable during heavy I/O on the PCI bus with a VIA VT6421 IDE/SATA PCI card. To avoid such instability, this patch switches the LBA PCI bus from Hard Fail mode into Soft Fail mode. In this mode the bus will return -1UL for timed out MMIO transactions, which is exactly how the x86 (and most other architectures) PCI busses behave. This patch is based on a proposal by Grant Grundler and Kyle McMartin 10 years ago: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-parisc/msg01027.html Cc: Carlo Pisani <carlojpisani@gmail.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Reviewed-by: Grant Grundler <grantgrundler@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
