Subject: SWNCQ should be enabled by default

Hi,

the patch is already upstream, thanks for that.
I am using it without any problems. Currently I am
using kernel-2.6.24.3-12.fc8 from the updates-testing
repository of Fedora 8. I had to add

options scsi_hostadapter1 swncq=1
options sata_nv swncq=1

before upgrading to get it enabled.
Can we enable it by default for 2.6.25?
It's completely independent from ADMA and its problems.
E.g. my machine has 8GB memory now, no problems at all.

Best regards,
Zolt?n B?sz?rm?nyi

Thanks. On the other hand, the meat of the SWNCQ patch
had its exposure in -mm, there were no problem reports...
