    Subjectata-scsi driver update
    maintenance update, nothing terribly new or exciting.  mostly error 
    handling improvements and cleanups (and some bug fixes just for fun).

    GNU diff, versus 2.4.21 release:
    ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/patchkits/2.4/2.4.21-atascsi1.patch.bz2

    BK repos:
    bk://kernel.bkbits.net/jgarzik/atascsi-2.[45]

    The 2.5 repo is a bit out of date WRT the latest scsi api, but the
    ata-scsi driver itself is 100% in sync with its 2.4 counterpart. (due
    to the large number of changes in 2.5 scsi, the 2.5 driver is a fork of
    the 2.4 driver)

    detailed changes:
    * add autogenerated docbook docs
    * add atapi (ifdef'd out, due to lack of err handling)
    * better ata probing, including better err handling during probe
    * more piix pci ids. bump up ich5 sata max speed to udma6.
    * beginnings of SYNCHRONIZE CACHE support for ATA drives
    * better SCSI emulation for ATA drives
    * cleanups, simplifications, minor bug fixes
    * a huge search-n-replace job, s/ata_host/ata_port/

    A couple new host drivers coming next, along with atapi error handling...
