2.6.30-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>

commit ac8672ea922bde59acf50eaa1eaa1640a6395fd2 upstream.

ata_tf_read_block() has off-by-one error when converting CHS address
to LBA.  The bug isn't very visible because ata_tf_read_block() is
used only when generating sense data for a failed RW command and CHS
addressing isn't used too often these days.

This problem was spotted by Atsushi Nemoto.
