Maciej, thank you very much for your reply. I don't think this was caused by
interrupt routing. I added lots of "printk" before following output, and saw
interrupts could be triggered correctly.

hdc: 195371568 sectors (100030 MB) w/7539KiB Cache, CHS=16383/255/63, UDMA(33)

LynxOS has been run successfully on this board, and we want port it to Linux recently.

I'm not sure which resource (I/O or Memory space) should be used for DMA operation because
all memory resources haven't been set (the flag is 0x2xxxxxxx). So my question is DMA operation
could succeed with I/O resource?
