Bug#535959: linux-2.6: Please enable libata for PATA/piix

[Michael Biebl <biebl@debian.org>]

Package: linux-2.6
Severity: normal

Hi,

currently the Debian linux package explicitly disables libata for
ata_piix via
debian/patches/debian/drivers-ata-ata_piix-postpone-pata.patch.
which means that the old IDE subsystem is used for this chipset.
I'd like to see this patch removed, so libata is used by default.

Cheers,
Michael
