sata dvdroms fails to be recognized by MCP55 controller with the 2.6.26.5 kernel

sata dvdroms fails to be recognized by MCP55 controller with the 2.6.26.5 kernel

[gettinther]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to get the 2.6.26.5 kernel to work but cannot get
the sata dvdrom to be recognized by the MCP55.  The controller works
with the 2.6.24.4 and 2.6.25.17 kernels.  I had to use
CONFIG_ACPI_DOCK=y for the 2.6.25.17 but this did not work with the
2.6.26.5.  The problem has been confirmed on at least 2 machines.

I have tried various boot options (pci=nomsi, acpi=off and any other
relevant code I could find) but nothing seems to work.  The odd thing
is the sata dvdrom was recognized twice by the 2.6.26.5 kernel (2
different kernel tests) for no apparent reason (could not get it to
work afterward).

Here's the cut info for each kernel from /var/log/messages (2.6.25.17,
2.6.26.5 working, 2.6.26.5 not working).  If you require further
information I can submit it. I don't want to put too much on the first
message.

Thank you

Cyrille

It's a regression.

Tejun,

I have tested the patch you sent me and it solves the issue with the
sata dvdrom detection with the 2.6.27.rc8.  The issue is still present
on the 2.6.26.5 kernel.  Are you backporting the solution to that
kernel?

Thank you very much for the fix.

I post below the patch for record.

It seems nf2/3 still have issues.  Once nf2/3 are cleared, I'll
forward the patch to -stable.

Thanks.

Tejun,

I applied your patch to the 2.6.26 tree (slightly modified to suit)
and it also fixes the issue there.
I can post the patch this evening if you want to.

Thank you again,

Can you test 2.6.27-rc8?
