Tejun / Jeff,

Any objections if I EXPORT ata_pio_sectors() for use from sata_mv.c ?
The code there is complex enough that I'd rather not duplicate it.

It will be needed for an errata workaround that's being worked on,
and I'll post a patch for it along with the errata patch once it
is ready.

Thanks

That's fine...

Well, it turns out that EXPORTing ata_pio_queue_task() was even more useful.
Patches are now awaiting your queue for 2.6.30.

No sata_mv target mode yet, but it's coming soon.

It appears that the GEN_IIE chips can be used to implement
a pretty decent SATA protocol tracer/analyzer too..

Cheers
