I just purchased a HighPoint Rocket 1520 SATA controller. There seems to
be no libata driver (yet), but there is an ide driver, hpt366. When the
driver gets loaded, it causes a kernel NULL pointer dereference in
pci_bus_clock_list. It seems to be because the driver is waiting for clock
stabilization in init_hpt37x() which never comes. The driver just
continues on with the pci drvdata set to NULL, instead of a valid clock
entry. The following patch prevents the NULL dereference from happening,
but instead exit with an error.

This is one heck of a confused driver. It uses a byte write to a dword
register to enable a ROM resource that it doesn't even seem to be using.

The highpoint driver is unreadable, buggy and crashes on some chipsets. The
-ac one is more readable (but not ideal) and doesn't crash all over the place.
Been in Fedora for some time.
Backported from the Fedora one to the old Bartlomiej IDE core. No other
dependencies.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
