Please send your patch inline (not attached) in a message to
linux-ia64@vger.kernel.org with a subject line starting with
"[RFC/PATCH]", cc-ing Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>,
linux-pci@vger.kernel.org, linux-ide@vger.kernel.org, and
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org to get review, and let us know when your
patch or some alternative fix is accepted.  (Also please feel free to
cc me on the discussion so we can track it.)

Be sure to mention which kernel versions you have tested and what
happened with each, since that will make it clearer when the
regression was introduced.

We will be happy to pick up the patch once it is accepted upstream.

See Documentation/SubmittingPatches for more hints, especially
section 12 labelled "Sign your work".

Some context so I don't forget:
