Hi Jeff,
Do you have any suggestion about this patch :)

> Reduce interrupt signals through reset Interrupt Coalescing Control Reg.
> Provide dynamic method to adjust interrupt signals and timer ticks by

> change for V2
> support dynamic config interrupt coalescing register by /sysfs
> test random small file with iometer
> 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,

> 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.
