Intel IDE-R devices are part of the Intel AMT management setup. They don't
have any special configuration registers or settings so the ata_generic

Rather than add a huge table of IDs for each chipset and keep sending in

One last question:  is this extremely urgent?

As the merge window is closed, I would prefer to have this in #upstream (linux-next, ie. 2.6.37) rather than #upstream-fixes (2.6.36-rc).
