The discussion was there, you were not especially interested
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/26/343).

We are talking about:

 pata_via.c |   19 +++++++++++++------
 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-)

patch here (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/25/380) and cosmetic change
is clearly documented in the patch description.
