PATCH 1/1 ata: pata_platform: Disable prereset logic.

On a number of boards the current prereset logic seems to misbehave:

scsi0 : pata_platform
ata1: PATA max PIO0 cmd 0xb06001f0 ctl 0xb06003f6 bmdma 0x00000000 irq 0
ata1: device not ready (errno=-19), forcing hardreset
ata1: BUG: prereset() requested invalid reset type

This triggers when there is no card inserted in the slot.

Simply disabling the prereset gets rid of this, and doesn't seem to cause any problems for either PCMCIA or CF cards when they're actually present.

NACK. The BUG printking needs fixing but you can't just kill prereset(). Did it work properly on 2.6.21.1? Can you modify ata_wait_ready() such that it prints out the status value while waiting?

ata_wait_ready() works fine, it reports 0xff immediately (and this is what I would expect when there is no card inserted).

The board that exhibits this behaviour wasn't supported in the older kernels, I can backport and test if it will be useful, though.

Yes, that works fine, thanks.

#5 lore raw

PATCH 1/1 libata: -ENODEV during prereset isn't an error

During prereset, -ENODEV return from ata_wait_ready() is not an error. This causes unnecessary bug message on controllers which uses 0xff to indicate empty port. Fix it.

---

This one is for 2.6.22 too. Thanks.
