Alan,
Maybe I should've just kept my mouth shut about the whole thing, because
it now looks like there are *two* 1106:0591 lines in the 2.6.18-rc4-mm3
version of drivers/ata/sata_via.c. It doesn't seem to cause any harm,
though, since I'm running rc4-mm3 on the system right now.
This patch removes one of the dupes.

To whom should I submit the patch that fixes this, or, more generally,
who is the correct recipient for patches in the new drivers/ata tree?
Thanks,
Jay
