I've put a new patch versus 2.6.14-mm1 on http://zeniv.linux.org.uk/~alan/IDE

I found somewhat strange that you check for 0xABCDExxx signature in 32-bit PCI config. reg. 0x78 while HighPoint's own drivers read BM reg. 0x90 (i.e. PCI config. 0x70) for that. PCI reg. 0x7A is DPLL precision adjust reg. and 0x7B is the input clock select and IRQ reg., so it'd be quite strange if the BIOS used them for any kind of signature...
