I don't know if you remember this bug, but I have reports from two users
who see "error -84"s on :e823 controllers even with this patch active on
modern ThinkPads.
Maybe 50MHz isn't low enough sometimes? Is it possible to lower the base
clock further?
I noticed that the frequency is encoded ine one of the PCI writes:
+ * 0x32 - 50Mhz new clock frequency
So if I get access to one of these systems, I might try lowering that
value (by half, say) and see what happens. But at the moment I haven't
found someone who's willing to try kernel patches yet, and I don't have
one of these systems myself.
Thanks!
- Chris.
