Hello, Jeff.

Do you recall why sata_via doesn't support configuration where SATA_2DEV
bit is set in the SATA_PATA_SHARING PCI conf reg?  Is it a leftover from
the days when libata didn't support mixed PATA/SATA setup?  I have a
machine which does that and just skipping the test makes it work just
fine and there's also a bug report reporting the same problem.  It seems
 some new chipset from via is setting the bit.

Thanks.
