currently libata-sff is completely ignoring the enabled/disabled status of the interfaces. This is a real problem on parisc because if you touch a non responding memory area (i.e. a disabled interface) you crash the box. Fix by checking the CNTRL bits to see if the port is enabled before trying to poke it.
Ping on this. Since 1/2 is an essential fix to prevent a boot panic on parisc, I can just take them through the parisc tree. James
