Hi,

reading linux-scsi I found a suggestion by Justin to make adaptec's 1210 sa 
working. I made the corresponding patch for libata, and it actually works :)

it needs  some redesign to only apply to aar1210 (as standard sil3112 does not 
need it) and I guess some testing before inclusion.

the idea suggested by Justin was to clear bits 6 and 7 at 0x8a of pci 
configuration space. (which I hope did fine :)

Thanks Justin :)

Cheers,
Mik
