Are you saying Huibing has tested PIO with 64KB transfers, or is that a
question? If the former, it'd be great if he can publish the differences
between his kernel and upstream to produce this.

This is an upstream kernel mailing list. I'd expect we can agree to test
on an upstream kernel...

I just compared with some (possibly old) copy of your vendor-kernel
driver, and there are a few moderate differences. I didn't test it yet.
I'd think the onus is on you to publish your changes though, if you
think you've fixed things in your own private tree...but I'm willing to
test any changes you recommend.
