icside: bring back ->maskproc method
Bring back ->maskproc method since it is still needed for proper operation, as noticed by Russell King: > This change is bogus. > > writeb(0, base + ICS_ARCIN_V6_INTROFFSET_1); > readb(base + ICS_ARCIN_V6_INTROFFSET_2); > > writeb(0, base + ICS_ARCIN_V6_INTROFFSET_2); > readb(base + ICS_ARCIN_V6_INTROFFSET_1); > > This sequence of code does: > > 1. enable interrupt 1 > 2. disable interrupt 2 > 3. enable interrupt 2 > 4. disable interrupt 1 > > which results in the interrupt for the second channel being enabled - > leaving channel 1 blocked. > > Firstly, icside shares its two IDE channels with one DMA engine - so it's > a simplex interface. IDE supports those (or did when the code was written) > serializing requests between the two interfaces. libata does not. > > Secondly, the interrupt lines on icside float when there's no drive connected > or when the drive has its NIEN bit set, which means that you get spurious > screaming interrupts which can kill off all expansion card interrupts on > the machine unless you disable the channel interrupt on the card. > > Since libata can not serialize the operation of the two channels like IDE > can, the libata version of the icside driver does not contain the interrupt > stearing logic.

This patch reverts changes done in commit dff8817 (I became confused due to non-standard & undocumented ->maskproc method, anyway sorry about that).
