Subject: [PATCH] Revert "ide: change master/slave IDENTIFY order"
Date: Sat, 29 Mar 2008 19:57:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200803291957.25205.bzolnier@gmail.com> (raw)

This reverts commit b140b99c413ce410197cfcd4014e757cd745226a.

[ conflict in drivers/ide/ide-probe.c fixed manually ]

It turned out that probing order change causes problems for some drives:

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10239

Since root causes are still being investigated and are unlikely to be fixed
before 2.6.25 lets revert this change for now.  As a result cable detection
becomes less reliable when compared with 2.6.24 but the affected drives are
useable again.
