[opensuse-kernel] ata_piix etc built-in ???
While I questioned whether doing this (for a slim boot time benefit this might provide) is really the right thing already in the past, bug 766284 points out another reason why this is a bad idea. Can this be reverted (in master and 12.2 at least)? Alternatively we would have to add Olaf's patch attached to that bug in one form or another (using a Hyper-V specific command line option to suppress the behavior added by the patch is certainly going to be odd)...

The changes came out of the faster booting effort at Intel for Meego (or Moblin, or whatever it was called then), since the initialization can happen in parallel rather than waiting on each module to load in the initrd as happens with a mostly-modular kernel. Greg KH added the changes and presented numbers as to why it was faster at the time. The fact that ata_piix is also used by emulated hardware is not a reason to make it modular. It's a reason to fix the drivers to work together, or to pull the functionality into the original driver.

Integrated into what? You're aware that we're talking about the PV Hyper-V and Xen drivers, aren't you? Furthermore, there are already multiple drivers for ATA devices - many specialized ones, and ata_generic. I doubt you could force the use of ata_generic on a kernel with built-in ata_piix on devices matched by the latter's MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() without tedious (almost) manual unbinding (which isn't an option for the problem at hand, since afaict there's no direct correlation between the PV and emulated devices).

For AHCI there certainly can arise the same kind of conflict at any time. For ATA and SCSI it's mostly because I wonder why those need to be in memory even if a system doesn't need them. But yes, assuming most systems will have at least SCSI used, the boot time benefit remains (except that these just being libraries, there shouldn't be much of a benefit).

This has become largely obsolete now with systemd. The overall gain we'll have from systemd far offsets any benefit we'll incur from having ata_piix built-in. I still think this was a bad idea. We had the very same issue during the IDE/libata transition, and I thought we had some lessons learned from them. But no, of _course_ this time it would be different. You wish.

Done so, but indeed only for ATA_PIIX (despite my thinking that this should be done to AHCI and probably also ATA and SCSI as well).
This was only done for the master branch but not for 12.2. Should it get done there as well?

Btw. Factory still has 3.4.0 but the 12.2 branch has 3.4.2, I suggest to submit again...
Yep. I was going to do this yesterday but was waiting for this change and the RTC_CMOS config sync to build.
