SiI3112 DMA? (2.6.0-test6)

Hi,

I am currently running 2.6.0-test6 on an old PII which has a SiI3112
SATA PCI card in one of its PCI slots. It seems that the SiI3112 is not
using DMA so now it is even running slower then the onboard PIIX4 IDE
controller.

Is DMA supported on the Si3112? DMA is not being enabled by the SiI3112
card's BIOS (this is a cheap PCI card):

SiI3112 Serial ATA: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:0b.0
SiI3112 Serial ATA: chipset revision 2
SiI3112 Serial ATA: 100% native mode on irq 11
ide2: MMIO-DMA at 0xd8807000-0xd8807007, BIOS settings: hde:pio,
hdf:pio
ide3: MMIO-DMA at 0xd8807008-0xd880700f, BIOS settings: hdg:pio,
hdh:pio
hde: ST3120026AS, ATA DISK drive
ide2 at 0xd8807080-0xd8807087,0xd880708a on irq 11

Greetings,

Jurgen
