The two most relevant git commits:

commit 51b94d2a5a90d4800e74d7348bcde098a28f4fb3
Author: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
Date: Fri Jun 8 13:46:55 2007 -0700

sata_promise: use TF interface for polling NODATA commands

commit 464cf177df7727efcc5506322fc5d0c8b896f545
Author: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
Date: Sun May 27 15:10:40 2007 +0200

libata: always use polling SETXFER

If you have a git tree local to you, "git-diff-tree -p $COMMIT" will
extract a patch, otherwise click "raw" after surfing to
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=$COMMIT

Jeff
