Tejun's rework of cable detection code which fixes the problem has
been just applied into "upstream" (not "upstream-fixes") so it is
destined for 2.6.25 (I wasn't on cc: BTW) and since I got no feedback
on my patch (below) which also happens to fix the regression, was
acked by Alan, tested by Thomas and has been in -mm for 3 weeks now
I assume that everybody is happy with it (Jeff/Tejun: you were also
on cc: when the patch was merged into -mm)...

Linus, please apply.

[PATCH] pata_amd/pata_via: de-couple programming of PIO/MWDMA and UDMA timings

* Don't program UDMA timings when programming PIO or MWDMA modes.

This has also a nice side-effect of fixing regression added by commit
681c80b5d96076f447e8101ac4325c82d8dce508 ("libata: correct handling of
SRST reset sequences") (->set_piomode method for PIO0 is called before
->cable_detect method which checks UDMA timings to get the cable type).

* Bump driver version.
