lol, there is a genuine cable detection bug in pata_hpt3x2n on closer look...

Jeff, please apply the patch below.


From: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@...il.com>
Subject: [PATCH] pata_hpt3x2n: fix cable detection

The detection was reversed between primary and secondary ports.

Fix it to match hpt366 and the vendor driver.
