I broke it in the following commit while implementing per-dev xfermode.
 I have no idea what I was thinking.  :-(

commit 37deecb5139ee431233781a9a093d9fcaab54c5b
[PATCH] libata: implement per-dev xfermask

> Definitely worth testing Art, especially if it shows something up.

Art, I attached the wrong patch and it won't apply to vanilla 2.6.19.
Patch against 2.6.19 is attached here.  Please test this one.

Yeap, I noticed the ATAPI devices and also that in many reports those
devices are pretty old ones which support only upto MWDMA modes.  My
suspicion was that people are pairing a slower ODD with a newer HDD on
the same channel and seeing this problem.

Let's see if this patch fixes anything.
