[patch 40/88] pata_hpt37x: fix HPT370 DMA timeouts

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Apr 30 2009 - 13:25:20 EST


2.6.28-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

upstream commit: 265b7215aed36941620b65ecfff516200fb190c1

The libata driver has copied the code from the IDE driver which caused a post
2.4.18 regression on many HPT370[A] chips -- DMA stopped to work completely,
only causing timeouts. Now remove hpt370_bmdma_start() for good...
