I have updates that will fix some stuff, not this one. I know why this occurs. Its trivial to make it go away, it requires some major work to make it go away properly in the context of SATA and hotswap. The latest patches split the ide registratio code from the ide i/o code. Its now possible to read all the registration code in one place. I'm now commenting it ready to rip it to shreds. And yes now ide.c in 2.5.47-ac1 is basically just the registration code it must qualify for some of the ugliest code in the kernel ;) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
