Hey Andrew,
As suggested by Randy Dunlap on the linux-ide mailing list
(http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-ide&m=115082279504424&w=2),
I send you this patch Bruno Harbulot did on a previous 'really crappy'
patch I did.
We've been testing it for a while, it works fine so we'd like to see it
intergrated in your tree and maybe upstream later.
This patch allow the sata port of the ATIIXP chipset to work at 55MB/sec
instead of 14.
Regards,
Erwan
