DMA is still broken on the ALI15X3 IDE controller.
Does anybody know what the problem could be
? The
problem was introduced by this patch:

http://www.linuxdiskcert.org/ide-2.4.19-p8-ac1.all.convert.10.patch.bz2
http://www.linuxdiskcert.org/ide-2.4.19-p7.all.convert.10.patch.bz2

But it is a 700K patch, without knowing a little
more about what is going on I'd have a hard time
finding the problem in that patch.

Symptoms are:
- DMA does not get enabled at boot.
- Manually switching on DMA will cause all disk
access to hang, the IDE led stays light until
IDE is initialized at next boot.
