Subject: [git pull 2/2] FireWire updates post 2.6.26 (with a few lines of SCSI
 in it)

Linus, please pull from the sbp2-spindown branch at

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ieee1394/linux1394-2.6.git sbp2-spindown

to receive the following IEEE 1394/ FireWire subsystem updates.
James has been polled for ACK or NAK or take-over of the SCSI bit
three times or so.

commit d2886ea368a67704ecc13e69075f18a9d74cb12b
Author: Stefan Richter <stefanr@...6.in-berlin.de>
Date:   Sun May 11 00:34:07 2008 +0200

    scsi: sd: optionally set power condition in START STOP UNIT
    
    Adds a new scsi_device flag, start_stop_pwr_cond:  If enabled, the sd
    driver will not send plain START STOP UNIT commands but ones with the
    power condition field set to 3 (standby) or 1 (active) respectively.
    
    Some FireWire disk firmwares do not stop the motor if power condition is
    zero.  Or worse, they become unresponsive after a START STOP UNIT with
    power condition = 0 and start = 0.
    
    http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/29/704
    
    This patch only adds the necessary code to sd_mod but doesn't activate
    it.  Follow-up patches to the FireWire drivers will add detection of
    affected devices and enable the code for them.
    
    I did not add power condition values to scsi_error.c::scsi_eh_try_stu()
    for now.  The three firmwares which suffer from above mentioned problems
    do not need START STOP UNIT in the error handler, and they are not
    adversely affected by START STOP UNIT with power condition = 0 and start
    = 1 (like scsi_eh_try_stu() sends it if scsi_device.allow_restart is
    enabled).
