The ESB2 appears to emit spurious DMA interrupts when configured for
native mode and handling ATAPI devices. Stratus were able to pin this bug
down and produce a patch. This is a rework which applies the fixup only
to the ESB2 (for now). We can apply it to other chips later if the same
problem is found.
Looks good but aren't this trying to fix the same ICH
issue that is fixed in libata by ap->ops->irq_clear(ap)?
[ please see Tejun's mail: http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/11/15/94 ]
If so shouldn't we apply this fix for all ICH5/6/7/8 chipsets?
This code has been tested and confirmed to fix the problem on the tested
systems.
Also shouldn't the fix be in IRQ handler? Currently the fix is limited
to ide-cd driver which seems to be the wrong place as the problem
is supposed to happen also when using other IDE device drivers
or/and other ATA/ATAPI devices?
