Subject: [PATCH 1/1] ahci: Enable SB600 64bit DMA on MSI K9AGM2 (MS-7327)
Date: Tue, 26 Jun 2012 12:45:59 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4FE92267.60106@gmail.com> (raw)

Like e65cc194f7628ecaa02462f22f42fb09b50dcd49 this patch enables 64bit DMA
for the AHCI SATA controller of a board that has the SB600 southbridge. In
this case though we're enabling 64bit DMA for another MSI motherboard, the
K9AGM2 or MS-7327. It is new enough that all of the BIOS releases since
the initial release (1.0 from 2007-02-09) work correctly with 64bit DMA 
enabled.
