Still no Radeon 9k support ?  :-)
Still no -march=pentium(x) support ?   :-)
GCC 3.3 inline ?  hint -finline-limit and/or compiler.h    :-)

Attached are two tiny type-related fixes for
2.4.21-rc5 to avoid compiler warnings.

Neither -rc5, nor a patch by Ivan, nor both, can get UDMA to turn on
automatically at boot time on my machine. This is a 466MHz DS10 Alphaserver,
2GB RAM, ALI 1543 IDE controller that is capable of UDMA2. hdparm can turn
on multiword DMA but not UDMA.

Hope this helps,

Get the latest BK tree.

I will have to release -rc6 (will probably do later tonight, maybe
something else shows up).

I'd propose the following patch instead that also removes the duplicated 
PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_8377_0 :

Hmm, should I say "Thanks, Santa!", or is this a completely different problem 
from the one I reported on Saturday 24th May:

"[BUG] IDE DMA timeout, then crash on reenable (2.4.20-SMP)"?

If this fix *is* related to my bug report then is there any way that I can test 
this, now that we know what might be causing it? My usual way of reproducing it 
is "boot, then wait for 28+ days of uptime", which doesn't sound like a part of 
a plan to get 2.4.21 out the door...

Cheers,
Chris

Hi,

Mainly due to a IDE DMA problem which would happen on boxes with lots of
RAM, here is -rc5.

As I always ask, please test.
