[PATCH] libata basic detection and errata for PATA->SATA bridges

[Brad Campbell]

Ok Jeff, I can take a hint! :p)
Patch against 2.6.9-rc1 Vanilla

This patch works around an issue with WD drives (and possibly others) over SiL PATA->SATA Bridges on 
SATA controllers locking up with transfers > 200 sectors.
