Debugging a report of a problem with an ancient solid state disk showed up some problems in the IORDY handling 1. We check the wrong bit to see if the device has IORDY 2. Even then some ancient creaking piles of crap don't support SETXFER at all. I think this should go via -mm for a bit. The cases it fixes are obscure and the risk of side effects is slight but possible. This also moves us slightly closer to supporting original MFM/RLL disks with libata but before Jeff panics I have no plans to do that.... Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxx>
