We don't need to stall and wait after loading the task file and before issuing a command, so don't do it. This shows up on profiles and is not needed. It costs us up to 1mS on a dumb controller. Matches the old IDE behaviour. [Note we are now at 2mS on a dumb controller of what seems to be excess delay and fiddling, 3mS if you are writing ctl] Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> --- drivers/ata/libata-sff.c | 3 --- drivers/ata/pata_via.c | 2 -- 2 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
