The patch titled
     PIIX: remove check for broken MW DMA mode 0
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     piix-remove-check-for-broken-mw-dma-mode-0.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: PIIX: remove check for broken MW DMA mode 0
From: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

There's no need to check in piix_config_drive_for_dma() for broken MW DMA
mode 0 as this mode is not supported by the driver (it sets
hwif->mwdma_mask to 0x6), and hence can't be selected by ide_dma_speed().

(Alan sayeth "Probably right but if not you've got a subtle corruptor.  Should
at least stick a BUG_ON mode 0 setting right close when the mode is set.")
