libata: use PIO for non-16 byte aligned ATAPI commands
The IDE driver used DMA for ATAPI commands if READ/WRITE command is multiple of sector size or sg command is multiple of 16 bytes. For libata, READ/WRITE sector alignment is guaranteed by the high level driver (sr), so we only have to worry about the 16 byte alignment. This patch makes ata_check_atapi_dma() always request PIO for all data transfer commands which are not multiple of 16 bytes. The following reports are related to this problem. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8605 (confirmed) http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/476620 (confirmed) https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=229260 (probably) Albert first pointed out the difference between IDE and libata. Kudos to him. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Cc: Albert Lee <albertcc@tw.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
