Looks like it's very common to ignore the result of ata_timing_compute() in drivers/ata/... Mind sharing the "certain conditions"? :-) I don't think the set_piomode() method can be called by libata itself with an unsupported xfer mode... > This patch checks the return value of ata_timing_compute() and print > err message.
