Ok, hopefully I can get the attachment right here.

Here's a resubmission of my MSI patch for the sata_vsc driver.

I've added a new vsc_sata_host_priv data structure (basically copied
from the sata_mv driver) which has an hp_flags bitfield with a bit to
indicate whether MSI is being used. This is used in the new
vsc_sata_host_stop() routine to call
pci_disable_msi() if MSI is on, pci_intx() if not.

ACK the patch technical content.

Unfortunately, the patch was corrupted, and tabs were converted to spaces, which makes it impossible to apply the patch.apply the patch.

Ok, this one should get it right. This makes me miss the days of elm and no firewalls.

Alas!

Your previous attempt (MIME attachment) worked manually, but not through the normal git-applymbox merge mechanism than me (and others) use.

Also, your MIME attachment was based on kernel 2.6.18. libata moves very rapidly, so you need to make sure that all your patches are based on the latest kernel, which is either kernel-2.6.X-rcY (in a Release Candidate cycle) or kernel-2.6.X-gitY (not -rc cycle).

Nonetheless, I managed to apply the patch (thank you git), and it is now queued for kernel 2.6.20 in repository jgarzik/libata-dev.git#upstream.
