Re: IT8212 driver seems to be broken - no DMA or functionality in general

Hi Alan,

Thanks for your quick response.

Is there an existing patch that can be applied to some recent-ish
vanilla kernel source in order to fix libata and pata_it821x or would
it be best to wait until .27 ?

Kind regards,

Pete
