LoC - lines of comments ? (at least half of them).

Been testing a bit before fixing up the pata_hpt drivers. Resume from S2R
doesn't work with drivers/ide/hpt366.c. So it may have code for resume
but it doesn't actually work for all the chips.

Reason is fairly obvious - the PCI speed detection logic is broken except
for the case of a PC boot where the ROM BIOS for the HPT3xx is run. That

Point out the breakage please. The driver has been developed and tested on non-x86 machine with 66 MHz PCI.

doesn't occur on a resume from RAM so a 66MHz clocked motherboard device
comes back with the speed guessed wrongly.

WBR, Sergei
