SubjectRe: PATCH: [2.4.21-pre3] IDE error recovery

Whoa, you need to check whic spec you are refering to first.

Model=FUJITSU MHJ2181AT, FwRev=D034, SerialNo=01001697
Config={ HardSect NotMFM HdSw>15uSec Fixed DTR>10Mbs }
RawCHS=16383/16/63, TrkSize=0, SectSize=0, ECCbytes=4
BuffType=unknown, BuffSize=512kB, MaxMultSect=16, MultSect=16
CurCHS=17475/15/63, CurSects=-78446341, LBA=yes, LBAsects=35433216
IORDY=yes, tPIO={min:240,w/IORDY:120}, tDMA={min:120,rec:120}
PIO modes: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4
DMA modes: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 *udma2 udma3 udma4
AdvancedPM=yes: disabled (255)
Drive Supports : Reserved : ATA-2 ATA-3 ATA-4 ATA-5
Kernel Drive Geometry LogicalCHS=2205/255/63 PhysicalCHS=37495/15/63

This drive claims ATA2-5 support, and thus it accepts the status quo.
Where are you finding the violations?
If the drive vendor states a range of support they are in violation.
This is clearly the point where the driver core needs to have a

unsinged long drive->support_bits

The mess this is going to create.

Cheers,
