SubjectRe: Warn about taskfile?

Bartlomiej,

It is the port not the driver.
Proof is PIO read and writes work, and DMA reads work.
DMA writes is directly related the the SG construction, this was an issue
w/ ia64 w/ atapi and addon cards. In the end the given vendor determined
it was their problem (./arch/*) and not the driver.
