Probably I was too esctatic about the code. ;-)
Or rarher me. :-)
The Marvell bridge chips used on HighPoint SATA cards do not seem to
support
the MWDMA modes (at least that caould be seen in their so-called
drivers :-),
so the driver needs to account for this -- to achieve this:
- add mdma_filter() method from the original patch by Bartlomiej
Zolnierkewicz
with his consent, also adding the method callout to ide_rate_filter();
- installed the method for all chips to only return empty mask if a
SATA drive
is detected onHPT372{AN]/374 chips...

This patch against the current Linus' tree and unfortunately I was
able to only
compile test it since that tree gives MODPOST warning and dies early
on bootup.
Will hopefully try to test if/when I have time... :-)
And it was still the same -- I'd bisected if I had time...
