From 0bc2a79a2002e3cc1b514c100b6c576983da6a90 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Cox Date: Tue, 31 Jul 2007 14:01:48 +0100 Subject: libata: Correct IORDY handling Debugging a report of a problem with an ancient solid state disk showed up some problems in the IORDY handling 1. We check the wrong bit to see if the device has IORDY 2. Even then some ancient creaking piles of crap don't support SETXFER at all. The cases it fixes are obscure and the risk of side effects is slight but possible. This also moves us slightly closer to supporting original MFM/RLL disks with libata.
