Some Maxtor drives have "Maxtor" and others have "MAXTOR" in the identify device data.
If the slave is a "MAXTOR" one, the following code segment doesn't work.

The 6L drive is a design brought over from Maxtor's purchase of
Quantum, the 6Y is a Maxtor local design.

Maybe we should check both "Maxtor" and "MAXTOR"?

It will have to... or maybe not...

Since I think Maxtor was the only vendor doing ATA133, maybe just
limit slave port on those adapters to UDMA100?  (Just checked newegg,
and Hitachi lists theirs as ATA133, while Samsung list theirs as
ATA133 compatible (default ATA100))

Were there enough other vendors doing ATA133 at the time the technote
was written to know if other brands were also affected?
