Hi Alan,

I've relayed your reply to the pata_amd user on the forum. As for my
case with pata_via, until this is fixed, is there any way to force it
to use a higher UDMA? Is there a flag that can be passed in, for
example, in /sys somewhere? hdparm fails to set a higher UDMA and I
looked at sdparm but don't see anything in it to increase UDMA...
