Oh, OK. Hopefully the ata guys can help out with this.
I don't know if it actually strictly a regression? Did libata ever support
that device in any earlier kernels?
Alan will be non-respnosive for a few weeks.
<looks>
Maybe pata_pcmcia-minor-cleanups-and-support-for-dual-channel-cards.patch?
Could you try a `patch -R' of the below?
