if (idedisk_supports_lba48(id)) {
/* drive speaks 48-bit LBA */
drive->select.b.lba = 1;
drive->capacity64 = id->lba_capacity_2;
if (hpa)
idedisk_check_hpa(drive);
if (drive->addressing == 0 && drive->capacity64 > (1ULL)<<28) {
/* FIXME: most controllers that won't do LBA48 with

* PIO fallback... For now, punt and limit the drive
* to 128 GiB to prevent bad things from happening... */
drive->capacity64 = (1ULL)<<28;
}
}

This is not sufficient?
