Subject: [PATCH] libata: fix bug with non-ncq devices

The recent commit 201f1b98822078c808b5e2d379a6ddbfc0a06ee1 to enable
Wouldn't that be commit 2fca5ccf97d2c28bcfce44f5b07d85e74e3cd18e?
Yes that is correct, the other commit is actually a private one in my
tree for other libata changes. Updated patch below, thanks for checking!

Hello,
this fixes my DVD, but unfortunately NCQ devices connected to PMP are still dead - apparently as soon as mount() tries to do serious I/O on the drive. Backing out both post-2.6.28-rc1 fix as well as your original change brings storage back. I suspect that problem is that with PMP same tag cannot be (should not be? must not be?) used on multiple devices behind PMP - and before your change tags were allocated per-port, while now they are allocated per-device.
That would indeed break, this requires allocating the tag map in the

Totally untested, does this work?

No. It went through same story as without patch - first it declared drive #2 hung, after port reset drives #0,1,2 were declared hung, after second port reset drive #2 was declared dead, after third port reset drive #3 was hung, after fourth reset it said that /dev/sde changed capacity from 0 to 1TB, and at that point I decided that it is time to hit alt-sysrq-b to prevent damage...

Also I think that this change leaks memory a bit...
