This change is OK and I would happily apply the patch but...

ata_id_has_dword_io() itself has bugs that need fixing (which would
have a nice side-effect of fixing some libata drivers that happen to
use it directly).  ATA_ID_DWORD_IO word is defined only in ATA-1 spec
and devices confirming to the later versions of spec support dword IO
just fine despite using zero value for the said word.

Thus could you please fix ata_id_has_dword_io() first (preferrably in
a separate patch) and than re-submit this patch (btw please remember to
include "Signed-off-by" line in your patches).

Thanks,
Bart
