The patch titled ide: fix error handling for drives which clear the FIFO on error has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is ide-fix-error-handling-for-drives-which-clear-the-fifo-on-error.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: ide: fix error handling for drives which clear the FIFO on error From: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> If the controller FIFO cleared automatically on error we must not try and drain it as this will hang some chips.
