Thank you for pointing it out!  And I'm very sorry for the bug.
I have checked all conversions between sectors and bytes through
all patches again, and I found no other miss conversions.

Below is the revised patch for xsysace.

Thanks,
Kiyoshi Ueda


Subject: [PATCH 20/30] blk_end_request: changing xsysace (take 4)

This patch converts xsysace to use blk_end_request interfaces.
Related 'uptodate' arguments are converted to 'error'.

xsysace is a little bit different from "normal" drivers.
xsysace driver has a state machine in it.
It calls end_that_request_first() and end_that_request_last()
from different states. (ACE_FSM_STATE_REQ_TRANSFER and
ACE_FSM_STATE_REQ_COMPLETE, respectively.)

However, those states are consecutive and without any interruption
inbetween.
So we can just follow the standard conversion rule (b) mentioned in
the patch subject "[PATCH 01/30] blk_end_request: add new request
completion interface".


In ace_fsm_dostate(), the variable 'i' was used only for passing
sector size of the request to end_that_request_first().
So I removed it and changed the code to pass the size in bytes
directly to __blk_end_request().
