Hello Tejun,
Yes, adding a separate entry for ich8m is the correct approach w/ port_enable=1 seems like the correct approach. Does it fix the problem?
yes, the hang did not occur anymore after the change. A patch with respect to linux-2.6.24-rc3 is included as attachment (Signed-off-by: Thomas Rohwer <tr@xxxxxx>). In the pci_device_id table I limited the new mapping to the specific subvendor (0x106b, 0x00a0), because in general the ich8m can have up to 3 ports. I tested this only on my hardware and I am not sure if this is the best fix for the issue. Sincerely, Thomas Rohwer
