[PATCH] 2.6.xx: sata_mv: another critical fix

From: Mark Lord
Date: Mon Mar 20 2006 - 23:58:37 EST


This patch addresses a number of weird behaviours observed
for the sata_mv driver, by fixing an "off by one" bug in processing
of the EDMA response queue.

Basically, sata_mv was looking in the wrong place for
command results, and this produced a lot of unpredictable behaviour.
