Subject: For -stable: sata_mv: fix 8-port timeouts on 508x/6081 chips
Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2009 21:57:47 -0500 [thread overview]

commit b0bccb18bc523d1d5060d25958f12438062829a9
Author: Mark Lord <liml@rtr.ca>
Date: Mon Jan 19 18:04:37 2009 -0500
sata_mv: fix 8-port timeouts on 508x/6081 chips
Fix a longstanding bug for the 8-port Marvell Sata controllers (508x/6081),
where accesses to the upper 4 ports would cause lost-interrupts / timeouts
for the lower 4-ports. With this patch, the 6081 boards should finally be
reliable enough for mainstream use with Linux.
Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <mlord@pobox.com>
Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
This should be backported to all -stable kernels.
Cheers
