In normal operation, libata should not generate such PIO commands (uses DMA instead), but they could be sent in via SG_IO from userspace. A full workaround might be to break up such commands into sequences of single DRQ ones, but that's just way too complex for something that doesn't normally happen in real life. So, allow the attempt (it often works, despite the errata), but log the event for reference when somebody screams. Signed-off-by: Mark Lord Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
