patch has been rejected repeatedly by eric moore for inclusion in the kernel, since device id 0x59 is in use by megasr (megaraid driver) which is not included in the kernel. megasr supports "hardware" raid arrays created within controller bios, but no direct access to sata drives.

We ( as kernel team ) don't accept patches outside the Linux kernel tree. I will leave this bug open just for reference Let us know if this or a similar patch gets accepted into the upstream kernel tree see #3. |
