PIO mode is setup by different code, and it takes care of the IORDY setting according to the PIO rules (and it gets called). DMA mode setup should just ignore the IORDY setting as in all other sane drivers.
Well it can't ignore it - but if you mean just keep the bit as is then
Yes, I mean this.
that sounds sensible, have to see what the docs say happens if you ever set MWDMA without IORDY.
Don't think they say anything on this matter but I can't imagine that IORDY matters for DMA.
What it says is that IORDY enable bit has no effect when the fast timing bit is cleared. That's from ICH IDE PRM (29860004.pdf).
