Just now, I was exploring git-am's interactive mode, so as to comply
with Linus's urgings of a cleaner changelog <grin>. I had a raw email
changelog with the subject
Re: 2.6.24-rc3-git6: Reported regressions from 2.6.23
I used the [e]dit feature of interactive mode to change this
first-line/one-line summary to
pata_amd/pata_via: de-couple programming of PIO/MWDMA and UDMA
timings
When I hit [y]es to apply the patch, git reported
Applying 2.6.24-rc3-git6: Reported regressions from 2.6.23
Wrote tree 34cebd48e3b4e90fe3e6a6c6c03154ae1ed0c827

The use of the older one-line summary led me to believe that it had not
committed my changelog edits. Looking at the result, however, proved
that the commit changelog was my new, corrected version.
Thus, I concluded that the printing of the old-and-no-longer-valid
changelog during the commit-to-tree phase was a bug.
Please see attached file for full example.
Thanks,

Tejun's rework of cable detection code which fixes the problem has
been just applied into "upstream" (not "upstream-fixes") so it is
destined for 2.6.25 (I wasn't on cc: BTW) and since I got no feedback
on my patch (below) which also happens to fix the regression, was
acked by Alan, tested by Thomas and has been in -mm for 3 weeks now
I assume that everybody is happy with it (Jeff/Tejun: you were also
on cc: when the patch was merged into -mm)...
Linus, please apply.
[PATCH] pata_amd/pata_via: de-couple programming of PIO/MWDMA and UDMA timings
* Don't program UDMA timings when programming PIO or MWDMA modes.
This has also a nice side-effect of fixing regression added by commit
681c80b5d96076f447e8101ac4325c82d8dce508 ("libata: correct handling of
SRST reset sequences") (->set_piomode method for PIO0 is called before
->cable_detect method which checks UDMA timings to get the cable type).
* Bump driver version.
