Hi,

I wonder if this patch fixes problems (reported back in 2.4.21 days)
with CSB5 IDE and Compaq Proliant machines. Please test it if you can.

thanks,

[IDE] fix ServerWorks PIO auto-tuning

If PIO mode should be auto-tuned xferspeed argument for svwks_tune_chipset()
is equal to 255 (0xFF). It is then passed to ide_rate_filter() which matches
desired mode with chipset capabilities. Since 255 is greater than any of the
values used for transfer modes, ide_rate_filter() will always return the
highest mode supported by both device/chipset (which sometimes should not be
used ie. when host is a simplex one) and the wrong mode will be set.
