Subject: [PATCH UPDATED #upstream-fixes] libata: handle SEMB signature better
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2009 06:21:10 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49E4FE46.1010006@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <49E4FB42.7010609@garzik.org>

WDC WD1600JS-62MHB5 successfully hits the window between ATA/ATAPI-7
and Serial ATA II standards and reports 3c/c3 signature which now is
assigned to SEMB.  Make ata_dev_classify() report ATA_DEV_SEMB on the
sig and let ata_dev_read_id() work around it by trying IDENTIFY once.

This fixes bko#11579.

UPDATED: Jeff spotted stupid bug caused by lingering debug code.
