Here's what I use:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=113877891224982&w=2

Please note that if you're using a kernel newer than 2.6.18, the _insw() 
and _outsw() calls no longer exist, so you'll need to replace them. 
Here's how I modified Kumar's functions. Not necessarily the right way, 
but it seems to work:

/* xxx: use standard outsw, insw when byte lanes swapped */
static void cfide_outsw(unsigned long port, void *addr, u32 count)
{
u16 *tmp = addr;
while (count--)
out_le16((u16 *)port, *tmp++);
}

static void cfide_insw(unsigned long port, void *addr, u32 count)
{
u16 *tmp = addr;
while (count--)
*tmp++ = in_le16((u16 *)port);
}
