VIA VT6410 chipset patch

VIA VT6410 chipset patch

[Frank Victor Fischer]

Hey there,

I have an ASUS P4P Mainboard with a VIA VT6410 IDE RAID controller onboard, so 
I have taken a 2.4 patch that existed, and adopted it a little for the 2.6
( works with .4, .5, .6) source tree, for people who are not too found of 
VIA's binary drivers (which are hassleful to install) and don't need the RAID 
functionality anyway.

Would it make any sense to include it in the kernel tree?

Victor

Note: -l switch needed most likely.

Is this SATA?
