Jeff, this is incremental to my previous fix.

From: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <bzolnier@gmail.com>
Subject: [PATCH] pata_hpt{37x,3x2n}: add debounce delay to cable detection methods

Alan Cox reported that cable detection sometimes works unreliably
for HPT3xxN and that the issue is fixed by adding debounce delay
as used by the vendor driver. 

Sergei Shtylyov also noticed that debounce delay is needed for all
HPT37x and HPT3xxN chipsets according to vendor drivers.

In comparison to original patch the conversion from PCI access to
io has been dropped as it is not required for the bugfix and makes
patch easier for back-porting into -stable kernels.

Acked-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com>

(and from what Sergey says about the 371N then the I/O conversion
is probably not needed anyway)

Thanks, I'll re-sync other pata_hpt37x patches on top of this one later.

ps if you could also push the fix to hpt366.c it would be great

PLEASE update the email subject, in future emails, to reflect a patch is 
buried in here!

Thanks,

applied -- same comment as last email, regarding hpt3x2n_cable_detect() fix
