Some ALi devices report simplex if they have been disabled and re-enabled, and
restoring the byte does not work. Ignore it - the needed supporting logic is
already present for the SATA ULi ports.

ACK, the original driver has always ignored simplex

No its quite recent actually - broke around 2.6.27
The libata drivers try and reset the simplex bits to check if a device is
merely in simplex mode by configuration. Unfortunately on the ALi if you
put the device into a power saving mode and bring it back the simplex
bits get corrupted and the register becomes unwritable (even to restore)
Somewhere around 2.6.27 something started rudely dumping the device into
power saving mode outside of the ATA layer on certain PCs.
So we switch to ignoring the bit in the first place on this chip.

Ok, thanks for explaining it.
BTW you may consider removing ata_pci_bmdma_clear_simplex() call
from ali_init_chipset() now (before somebody decides to fix the code
to check the former's function return value).
