Hi,

After several attempts with 2.1.106, 2.1.123, 2.1.126, 2.1.126ac1 and so
on, I can't make my LS-120 worked.
These kernels detect LS-120 fine, but while mounting disk or even after
hdparm -t /dev/hdd kernel crashes with NULL dereferensing somewhere in
idefloppy_end_request. Situation 100% reproducible.
This is seems not hardware problem, as long as all work OK with 2.0.31
and 2.0.35.
Behavior tested on two machines (K6+VIA MVP3 and old Cyrix P166+ ASUS
P/I55T2P4).

Please help.
If anybody interested in configurations and stack traces I'll provide
them.

Thanks in advance,
Konstantin
