[PATCH 1/2] libata: get rid of ATA_MAX_QUEUE loop in ata_qc_complete_multiple()

From: Jens Axboe
Date: Wed Oct 22 2008 - 03:40:59 EST


We very rarely (if ever) complete more than one command in the
sactive mask at the time, even for extremely high IO rates. So
looping over the entire range of possible tags is pointless,
instead use __ffs() to just find the completed tags directly.
