for all struct bio you get back from g_{new,alloc}_bio. Temporary
bios that you create on the stack or elsewhere should use this before
first use of the bio, and between uses of the bio. At the moment, it
is nothing more than a wrapper around bzero, but that may change in
the future. The wrapper also removes one place where we encode the
size of struct bio in the KBI.
tend to be invalid. On a Beaglebone Black, we get 8192 sectors per

used to align partitions in gpart. We also try to align partitions by
stripe size when creating new media. Align these two concepts by
making fwsectors the same as the stripe size. Select a sensible number
of heads so we wind up with about 20 cylinders. This number was
selected to keep the rounding effects to a few percent while keeping
the number of cylinder groups low.
Sadly, it is not possible to make these numbers match the numbers used
by SD card readers. There apperas to be much variation between brands
so there's no one universal number. These numbers are also not aligned
to the stripe size, so some performance problems may still be present
when SD cards are created this way.
Also, these numbers will differ from the far less common SD to ATA
adapters, which present a different, but more uniform, set of numbers
that also happened to match the old defaults.
Nothing should change for current users. Any suboptimal performance
caused by misalignment will still be there. gpart will honor the
partitions that aren't on proper boudnaries, but editing the partition
tables may result in different alignments being used than before when
editing things natively.
Ideally, there'd be some way to override these values in the disk
subsystem by the user for the USB adapter use case where all "native"
notions of geometry disappear. This does not implement that.
In the mmcsd layer use this value to populate disk->d_ident. Also set
disk->d_descr to the full set of card identification info (includes vendor,
model, manufacturing date, etc).
Report errors indicated by the transport. If this is too chatty, I'll
throw it behind a debug write.
Remove commented out debugs that are no longer useful.
- When switching to 4-bit operation, send a SET_CLR_CARD_DETECT command
to disconnect the card-detect pull-up resistor from the DAT3 line before
sending the SET_BUS_WIDTH command.
- Add the missing "reserved" zero entry to the mantissa table used to
decode various CSD fields. This was causing SD cards to report that they
could run at 30 MHz instead of the maximum 25 MHz mandated in the spec.
o Enhancements:
- At the MMC layer, format various info from the CID into a string that
uniquely identifies the card instance (manufacturer number, serial
number, product name and revision, etc). Export it as an instance
variable.
- At the MMCSD layer, display the formatted card ID string, and also
report the clock speed of the hardware (not the card's max speed), and
the number of bits and number of blocks per transfer. It comes out like
this now:
mmcsd0: 968MB <SD SD01G 8.0 SN 276886905 MFG 08/2008 by 3 SD> at mmc0
22.5MHz/4bit/128-block
o Use DEVMETHOD_END.
o Use NULL instead of 0 for pointers.

Now it is possible to suspend/resume with inserted and active card.
To reinitialize card on resume and to detect card change while suspended,
implement bus rescan routines. It can also be used by controllers without
card presence detection signals or with multiple cards per slot support.
While there, cleanup msleep() usage. We have no any rights to exit without
"request done" signal from driver as it could lead to modify after free.
sdhci supports up to 65535 blocks transfers, at91_mci - one block.
Enable multiblock operations disabled before to follow at91_mci driver
limitations.

Erase operation gives card's logic information about unused areas to help it
implement wear-leveling with lower overhead comparing to usual writing.
Erase is much faster then write and does not depends on data bus speed.
Also as result of hitting in-card write logic optimizations I have measured
up to 50% performance boost on writing undersized blocks into preerased areas.
At the same time there are strict limitations on size and allignment of erase
operations. We can erase only blocks aligned to the erase sector size and
with size multiple of it. Different cards has different erase sector size
which usually varies from 64KB to 4MB. SD cards actually allow to erase
smaller blocks, but it is much more expensive as it is implemented via
read-erase-write sequence and so not sutable for the BIO_DELETE purposes.

disabled by default because there's problems with it on AT91RM9200,
currently the only host controller in the tree. I've not had time to
track those problems to ground. I'm committing because this is
important for other host controllers that are in the pipeline.

to kproc_xxx as they actually make whole processes.
Thos makes way for us to add REAL kthread_create() and friends
that actually make theads. it turns out that most of these
calls actually end up being moved back to the thread version
when it's added. but we need to make this cosmetic change first.
I'd LOVE to do this rename in 7.0 so that we can eventually MFC the
new kthread_xxx() calls.
