Subject: zaurus pata_pcmcia corrupted filesystem

Hi!
Marek Vasut ported deprecated zaurus pcmcia disk driver to the pata_pcmcia
interface, sources are here:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/marex/pxa-linux-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/zaurus-haxing

Everythig seems to be fine at the first look but sometimes the filesystem gets
unconsistent. Typical example is extracting tar archive with big number of
files and directories (I used ltp-full archive from
http://www.sf.net/projects/ltp/). After doing that, some files or directories
are present in the filesystem, eg. you can see them in directory listing but
open or fstat returns ENOENT.

Extracting to SD card seems to work without any problems.

Anybody has idea what went wrong?
