Description James M. Leddy 2010-10-14 18:49:10 UTC
Description of problem:

When the old IDE layer calls into methods in the driver during error
handling it is essentially random whether ide_lock is already held.  This
causes a deadlock in the atiixp driver which also uses ide_lock internally
for locking.

Switch to a private lock instead.
