    [PATCH] ata_piix: apply device detection via polling IDENTIFY · 228c1590
    Tejun Heo 提交于
    PATA PIIX uses reset signature + TF r/w test for device presence
    detection, which doesn't always work.  It sometimes reports phantom
    device which results in IDENTIFY timeouts.
    
    SATA PIIX uses some combination of PCS + reset signature + TF r/w test
    for device presence detection.  No combination satifies all and for
    some controllers, there doesn't seem to be any combination which
    works reliably.
    
    This patch makes both PATA and SATA piix's use reset signature + TF
    r/w + polling IDENTIFY for device detection.  This is what the old
    libata (before irq-pio and new EH) did and what IDE does.
    
    This patch also removes now obsolete PIIX_FLAG_IGNORE_PCS, force_pcs
    and related code.
