From 7de970e11fb832a56c897276967fb0e49f59b313 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nate Dailey Date: Thu, 15 Feb 2007 18:13:46 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] sata_vsc: use default cache line size if non-zero This modifies drivers/ata/sata_vsc.c to only set the cache line size to 0x80 if the default value is zero. Apparently zero isn't allowed due to a bug in the chip, but I've found performance is much better with the (non-zero) default instead of 0x80.
