Bug#444182: ata_piix still buggy



reassign 444182 linux-2.6
reassign 463833 linux-2.6
found 444182 2.6.24-2
merge 444182 463833
kthxbye

I have the exact same IDE controller (8086:27df) and this is still disabled (for no good reason that I can see). I'd like to be able to use my DVD drive as /dev/scd0, since I use both Debian and upstream kernels, and the latter has a functional ata_piix. Obviously, it's quite annoying to have to constantly switch /etc/fstab from /dev/hda to /dev/scd0.

It looks like this was introduced with 2.6.20-3, but no explanation is given in either the changelog or the patch. Could you either remove this patch or please explain why it is necessary?
