Hi,

Generally looks OK, thanks for working on it.

Some comments below.

Please make it patch 1/2 or just merge two patches together.

We should always have the kernel in the "working" state
(so introduction of the new fix first, removal of the old one next).

OK

As noted by Sergei, this belongs to piix.c
(at least for now, we can change it when needed).

Is there a reason to protect ->ide_dma_clear_irq call by the ide_lock?

If not please move the call outside the lock.

As noted by Alan, this should be probably done only for newer
chipsets.  I think that we can safely do it for all ICHx chipsets.

It should be possible to split out ICHx PCI ID filter from
init_chipset_piix() (as this function does the tuning only on
ICHx chipsets) to some helper function and use it later in
init_hwif_piix().

With the above corrections I'll happily add the patch to my tree.

Thanks,
Bart
