Subject: [PATCH v2] ata_piix: unify code for programming PIO and MWDMA timings

Besides making things noticably simpler it results in ~2% decrease in
the driver LOC count and also ~2% decrease in the driver binary size
(as measured on x86-32).

Fix piix_set_piomode() documentation while at it.

I'm still inclined to NAK this patch.

We still have following code at the end of piix_set_timings():

/* Ensure the UDMA bit is off - it will be turned back on if
UDMA is selected */

if (ap->udma_mask) {
pci_read_config_byte(dev, 0x48,&udma_enable);
udma_enable&= ~(1<< (2 * ap->port_no + adev->devno));
pci_write_config_byte(dev, 0x48, udma_enable);
}

so everything should be OK.

Ah, I should have looked... Didn't expect it to be there, and it in fact
shouldn't be there, but now I'm OK with your patch. :-)

   But I would have preferred the above code to be removed, of course.

WBR, Sergei
