Good overview!

I'm wondering how the support for the SIS 182 controller is doing, I
noticed they have a GPL driver on their website for kernel 2.6.10, which
is not a drop in replacement for sata_sis.c in 2.6.12.5, I haven't tried
compiling it as an add-on module outside the tree, though...

Adding the 0x182 identifier to the 180 driver does compile (duh!), but I
haven't tried it on hardware.

As a temporary measure, there was a patch posted to this list [1] a
while ago, would it be a good idea to include this while full support is
being worked on?

Cheers

Simon
