Some (non-functional) cleanup modifications since the version 0.10[snip..]
driver I sent out 2005-08-30. Also adding signed-off-by for Jeff's
upstream push. This is my libata compatible low level driver for
the Marvell SATA family. Currently it successfully runs in PIO mode
on a 6081 chip. EDMA support is in the works and should be done
shortly. Review, testing (especially on other flavors of Marvell),
comments welcome.
Thank you,

Please find attached patches that add the Adaptec 1420SA controller to the PCI ID list in the driver, and a small note in the kernel config option to state so. This is untested as of currently, if anyone has a 1420SA to try, that would be great.. The one I had access to is now gone to a remote location out of reach for testing. I read in one post I found with google, that the 1420SA uses a 6541 chip instead of a 6041, but I am not able to verify this, and also don't know if it may still work as a 6041. The card is still a Sata2, PCI-X card, with 4 ports, the same as the 6041 based cards. This patch may or may not be useful.. The card comes with a manufacturer ID of 9005 according to a linux PCI-ID list, which is a secondary id of Adaptec's known as ADAPTEC2, and an actual PCI Id of 0241.
