Hi

As a workaround you can try using IDE subsystem siimage driver and pass
"idex=ata66" option or modify Tejun's patch to also override device side
cable detection by replacing ATA_CBL_PATA80 with ATA_CBL_PATA40_SHORT.
I changed some code in libata=core.c in ata_dev_xfermask (see patch2), that xfer_mask &= ~(0xF8 << ATA_SHIFT_UDMA) isn't set, when forcing 80c.

Everything seems to work now. I have a about 41 MB/s while reading.
