Hello, I wrote:
Make the SATA drive detection code from eighty_ninty_three() into inline
ide_dev_is_sata() helper fixing it along the way to be more strict while
checking word 80 for the reserved values...

    The same could have been achieved more simply:

	if (id->hw_config == 0 && (short}id->major_rev_num >= 0x0020

    so I'll probably recast...
