    Erm, I had doubts about it (having in mind that all that code is more of a 
cleanups than fixes). Maybe it'd be a good idea to separate the fix and 
cleanup series somehow...

    Yeah, you if you pass 255, it won't work (so, drive->autotune must be 
broken). But the driver itself have the wrong idea of 5 meaning auto-tune, so 
fallback should still work.

    The driver's authorship explains it all. :-)

    Ugh... don't expect patches form me soon though. My first priority is the 
drivers that we support here...

    I'm going to send the patch for both this and siimage.c...

    Hm, ide_config_drive_speed() is called by both tuneproc() method and 
cs5535_set_drive(), so I saw no issue there...

    Sorry, this one is low prio for me... :-)
