Subject: libata: make ata_exec_internal_sg honor DMADIR
From: Vincent Pelletier <plr.vincent@xxxxxxxxx>
commit e771451c0a831d96a7c14b0ca8a8ec671d98567b upstream.
libata honors DMADIR for regular commands, but not for internal commands
used (among other) during device initialisation.
This makes SATA-host-to-PATA-device bridges based on Silicon Image SiL3611
(such as "Abit Serillel 2") end up disabled when used with an ATAPI device
after a few tries.
Log output of the bridge being hot-plugged with an ATAPI drive:
