Please do.

In fact I think I'm only a speed bumper here. There's so little work to 
do on the sis5513 driver now that I don't follow IDE work closely 
anymore and must refresh my memories even for such simple patches. I 
believe there are people around more fit than me for sis5513 maintenance.
With SATA, sis5513.c will soon be considered legacy code. I don't think 
a dedicated maintainer is usefull anymore, seems to me it would be 
better handled by someone with a broader view of IDE chipsets than me.

Any volunteeer ?

Lionel.
