Actually, it looks like it should indeed be 2.6.19 (libata #upstream), not 2.6.18 (libata #upstream-fixes). Alan's "add compactflash support" patch isn't in 2.6.18-rc.

So, this should -not- be sent for 2.6.18.

Hello,

Yes, I meant .18. Jeff, this should be fixed before 2.6.18 is released. It's not the question of whether CFA support is implemented or not. We're sanity-checking in 2.6.18-rcX anyway and it's the sanity checking which is causing problem. What seems to have happened is...

1. CFA support is implemented
2. CFA check was added (backported) to upstream-fixes, but it was incorrect.

So, we need to do one of two things.

* apply this patch to 2.6.18-rcX
* remove ata_id_is_cfa() check altogether
