Re: [PATCH] 2.5.13 IDE PIO mode Fix

    I found this bug in 2.5.10 first. And caused ext2 FS corruption.
    We are porting Linux to PC-9801 architecture (made by NEC Japan).
    It has PIO ONLY IDE I/F. So please check PIO mode too.
    # Our porting status - 2.2.x/2.4.x done and updating. 2.5.x partial.

Excellent!
It was introduced in 2.5.9 and still exists in 2.5.13,
and caused superblock corruption for me. This fixes it.
