Subject[PATCH 2.6.32 46/62] Disable write buffering on Toshiba ToPIC95
2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ryan Underwood <nemesis@icequake.net>

commit 2fb22a8042fe96b4220843f79241c116d90922c4 upstream.

Disable write buffering on the Toshiba ToPIC95 if it is enabled by
somebody (it is not supposed to be a power-on default according to
the datasheet). On the ToPIC95, practically no 32-bit Cardbus card
will work under heavy load without locking up the whole system if
this is left enabled. I tried about a dozen. It does not affect
16-bit cards. This is similar to the O2 bugs in early controller
revisions it seems.
