Subject: [PATCH V2 RESEND] fsl-sata: I/O load balancing

Reduce interrupt signals through reset Interrupt Coalescing Control Reg.
Provide dynamic method to adjust interrupt signals and timer ticks by sysfs.
It is a tradeoff for different applications.

Signed-off-by: Qiang Liu <qiang.liu@...escale.com>

change for V2
	support dynamic config interrupt coalescing register by /sysfs
	test random small file with iometer
	adjust kernel source baseline for apply upstream
Description:
  1. fsl-sata interrupt will be raised 130 thousand times when write 8G file
    (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda2 bs=128K count=65536);
  2. most of interrupts raised because of only 1-4 commands completed;
  3. only 30 thousand times will be raised after set max interrupt threshold,
    more interrupts are coalesced as the description of ICC;
Test methods and results:
  1. test sequential large file performance,
  [root@...20ds root]# echo 31 524287 > \
	/sys/devices/soc.0/ffe18000.sata/intr_coalescing
  [root@...20ds root]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda2 bs=128K count=65536 &
  [root@...20ds root]# top

   CPU %  |  dd   |  flush-8:0 | softirq
   ---------------------------------------
   before | 20-22 |    17-19   |    7
   ---------------------------------------
   after  | 18-21 |    15-16   |    5
   ---------------------------------------
   2. test random small file with iometer,
   iometer paramters:
   4 I/Os burst length, 1MB transfer request size, 100% write, 2MB file size
     as default configuration of interrupt coalescing register, 1 interrupts and
   no timeout config, total write performance is 119MB per second,
     after config with the maximum value, write performance is 110MB per second.

   After compare the test results, a configuable interrupt coalescing should be
   better when cope with flexible context.
