 Greetings Bartlomiej,

 I've updated the following

 * in_flags modification when out_flags != 0 && in_flags == 0
 * more than one -> one or more than one
 * tf_{in|out}_flags -> {in|out}_flags as tf_* are in-kernel names

 I'll update the taskfile patch series after receiving your comments
about the patches.  Also, if you have a big picture for the IDE
driver, do you care to spill?  What I have in mind now are

 1. Completion-based taskfile (no direct ending/error handling of
    requests), so that we can use it for specials/rw_disk/eh/etc...
 2. Make specials (set_geometry, set_multmode...) more regular.
 3. Do error-handling/resetting in a exception handler thread.
    Maybe this and #2 should happen together.
Yep, this is the way to go.
 So, please let me know what you think.  Updated patch for hdio.txt
follows.
thanks, applied
