That code heavily relies on x86-specific instructions, and while other
CPU architectures and platforms can have PCI IDE controllers, currently
we don't support those, so this code is a special case which needs to be
in the Arch/x86 directory.
In the future it could be put back to the original place when we make it
more generic and suitable for other platforms.
Until now, our kernel has reimplemented a number of AK classes to
provide automatic internal locking:
- RefPtr
- NonnullRefPtr
- WeakPtr
- Weakable
This patch renames the Kernel classes so that they can coexist with
the original AK classes:
- RefPtr => LockRefPtr
- NonnullRefPtr => NonnullLockRefPtr
- WeakPtr => LockWeakPtr
- Weakable => LockWeakable
The goal here is to eventually get rid of the Lock* classes in favor of
using external locking.
We do that to increase clarity of the major and secondary components in
the subsystem. To ensure it's even more understandable, we rename the
files to better represent the class within them and to remove redundancy
in the name.
Also, some includes are removed from the general components of the ATA
components' classes.
