aty128fb blank

Hi!
I have a problem with blanking. The soundcard uses speakers of the monitor.
Sound is muted when the screen blanks due to a bug in aty128fb.c.
Here is the patch:

--- linux-2.6.19/drivers/video/aty/aty128fb.c.old	2007-02-15 19:27:53.000000000 +0100

Here is a fragment of linux/fb.h
/* VESA Blanking Levels */
#define VESA_NO_BLANKING        0
#define VESA_VSYNC_SUSPEND      1
#define VESA_HSYNC_SUSPEND      2
#define VESA_POWERDOWN          3


enum {
        /* screen: unblanked, hsync: on,  vsync: on */
        FB_BLANK_UNBLANK       = VESA_NO_BLANKING,

        /* screen: blanked,   hsync: on,  vsync: on */
        FB_BLANK_NORMAL        = VESA_NO_BLANKING + 1,

        /* screen: blanked,   hsync: on,  vsync: off */
        FB_BLANK_VSYNC_SUSPEND = VESA_VSYNC_SUSPEND + 1,

        /* screen: blanked,   hsync: off, vsync: on */
        FB_BLANK_HSYNC_SUSPEND = VESA_HSYNC_SUSPEND + 1,

        /* screen: blanked,   hsync: off, vsync: off */
        FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN     = VESA_POWERDOWN + 1
};

So FB_BLANK_NORMAL is 1, FB_BLANK_VSYNC_SUSPEND is 2,
FB_BLANK_HSYNC_SUSPEND is 3, FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN is 4.
And now:
blank = FB_BLANK_NORMAL (1)
blank & FB_BLANK_HSYNC_SUSPEND (1 & 3) is true,
so normal blank caused hsync suspend and sound is muted.
Sorry for my bad English, but I hope you got it.

The second patch is related to the first one:
