79860a9a79 [PATCH] PATCH: 2.6.18 oops on boot fix for IDE
When the IDE fix for Jmicron went in one piece went walking somewhere
(send log shows my end somehow). Without this sometimes you get an oops
on boot.

15e0c69436 [PATCH] ide: fix Jmicron support
Prior to 2.6.18rc1 you could install with devices on a JMicron chipset
using the "all-generic-ide" option. As of this kernel the AHCI driver
grabs the controller and rams it into AHCI mode losing the PATA ports
and making CD drives and the like vanish. The all-generic-ide option
fails because the AHCI driver grabbed the PCI device and reconfigured
it.

To fix this three things are needed.

#1 We must put the chip into dual function mode
#2 The AHCI driver must grab only function 0 (already in your rc1 tree)
#3 Something must grab the PATA ports

The attached patch is the minimal risk edition of this. It puts the chip
into dual function mode so that AHCI will grab the SATA ports without
losing the PATA ports. To keep the risk as low as possible the third
patch adds the PCI identifiers for the PATA port and the FN check to the
ide-generic driver. There is a more featured jmicron driver on its way
but that adds risk and the ide-generic support is sufficient to install
and run a system.

The actual chip setup done by the quirk is the precise setup recommended
by the vendor.

(The JMB368 appears only in the ide-generic entry as it has no AHCI so
does not need the quirk)

2f09a7f4af [PATCH] ide: add support for Netcell Revolution to pci-ide generic driver
Adds support for Netcell Revolution to pci-ide generic driver by including
it in the list of devices matched.  Includes the Revolution in the list of
simplex devices forced into DMA mode.

b189346cd1 [PATCH] ide: ide-generic, allow for capture of other unsupported devices
The ide-generic driver gives you DMA at bios tuned speed so can actually run a
lot of unsupported devices quite well.  It has a pci table so that it doesn't
grab disks owned by other drivers but no way to override this.  The patch adds
an option ide-generic-all which makes the driver grab everything going that is
IDE class.

The diff is messy because I put the special case as case 0 to make the if
conditional and long term maintenance easier.

This has been in Fedora for some time.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
