Subject: 2.6.34-rc2 breaks via82cxxx Host Protected Area

The kernel fails to see the entire disk with 2.6.34-rc2 with VIA
vt82c586b chipset.  I tracked it down to commit
f931a5d5785d7b7c44871bd7ad2762e29dfddf29 "via82cxxx: workaround h/w
bugs" and reverting just that one solves the problem, or just
commenting out just one outb write in that change.

via82cxxx 0000:00:07.1: VIA vt82c586b (rev 41) IDE UDMA33
via82cxxx 0000:00:07.1: IDE controller (0x1106:0x0571 rev 0x06)
via82cxxx 0000:00:07.1: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later

Note the kernel panic is intentional as I'm given the test kernel an
invalid root device, so that I can suspend to disk, try a kernel,
resume and pick up where I left off.  It does have a side benefit of
dumping the size of all partitions.

2.6.34-rc2 unmodified, fails and sees 30985416 KiB for the last
partition.

Here are two debug patches, the first adds debug prints and the second
disables the problematic write, I  have the output of both included.
