Currently the stall is triggered if the DMA engine active bit is set, no further conditions.
Would you concur that it would be reasonable to trigger only if
- the chipset version is < CSB5, - the drive is a hard disk, - and the drive did not report an error?
(I am not certain about the last condition, but from the descriptions of the 4-byte-shift problem I have seen I infer that there was no drive error condition involved).
