the latest .19rc6 still didn't inlcude your 2 patches for via_pata patches

They are at least needed for my pc to boot fine, so i guess others would be
also happy if those were upstream applied, else i have to patch our final
kernel then.
If you check the full changelog
(ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.19-rc5/2.6.19-rc5-mm2/broken-out/via-pata-controller-xfer-fixes.patch)
you'll see that Jeff had issues with the patch.
I don't know if they're still concerns, nor if they're fatal concerns
either. But I've been sitting on that patch for nearly five months.
This isn't driver-specific, so a similar change should be applied to the
core.
