Re: [RFC/PATCH v2] ia64, SR870, EFI bug breaks ata_piix,uninitialized ICH4 IDE EXBAR mem resource

[Stephan Schreiber]

Hello Bjorn,
thank you very much for the patch.
I tested it; it works.

(typing mistake: it must read PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY instead of  
PCI_COMMAND_MEM at one location;
some hunks of the patch couldn't be applied automatically on Kernel  
3.2.23 because some comments in the contexts are different)

The dmesg output:

How is the chance to get this patch or a similar one into linux-next?

Since I have the four Windows versions 'for Itanium Based Systems' on  
that box as well (XP, Server 2003, 2008, 2008 R2), I can tell you more:
The Device Manager shows a memory range FFBFFC00-FFBFFFFF for the  
"Intel 82801DB Ultra ATA Storage Controller-24CB" - on any of these  
Windows versions.
