Subject: [PATCH] ide: increase timeout in wait_drive_not_busy()
Date: Sun, 15 Jun 2008 20:24:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200806152024.24596.bzolnier@gmail.com> (raw)

Some ATAPI devices take longer than the current max timeout value to
become ready (i.e. TEAC DV-W28ECW takes 6 ms) so increase the timeout
value to 10 ms.

This fixes kernel.org bugzilla bug #10887:
