Hello,
After upgrading to 2.6.19-rc6 and enabling experimental support of
pata_via noticed that my hdd was downgraded to UDMA/33:
Before (2.6.18-rc & via82cxxx):
Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 7.00alpha2
ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override withidebus=xx
VP_IDE: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:07.1
PCI: VIA IRQ fixup for 0000:00:07.1, from 255 to 0
VP_IDE: chipset revision 16
VP_IDE: not 100%% native mode: will probe irqs later
VP_IDE: VIA vt82c686a (rev 22) IDE UDMA66 controller on pci0000:00:07.1
ide0: BM-DMA at 0xffa0-0xffa7, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:pio
ide1: BM-DMA at 0xffa8-0xffaf, BIOS settings: hdc:pio, hdd:pio
hda: max request size: 128KiB
hda: 40031712 sectors (20496 MB) w/512KiB Cache, CHS=39714/16/63, UDMA(66)
hda: cache flushes not supported
hda: hda1 hda2 hda3 hda4 < hda5 hda6 hda7 hda8 hda9 hda10 hda11 >
Now (2.6.16-rc6 & pata_via):
pata_via 0000:00:07.1: version 0.1.14
ata1: PATA max UDMA/66 cmd 0x1F0 ctl 0x3F6 bmdma 0xFFA0 irq 14

BTW: is it possible to do something with this annoying long delay with
the "port is slow to respond, please be patient" message? :)
