Thank you very much. I believe the testing I did is still valid. Feel free to include any parts of the description of the test I made back then into your patch description as you see it as relevant for it. Also feel free to include my Tested-By: (probably with a hint the test was in 2012). I am not sure I am ready to permanently let go of (some of) the hardware I still have collected, but at some time I may. I do have SATA-SCSI bridges. That A4000T I have here probably could be a nice Debian m68k build host.
