I was having lots of DMA problems with a Promise 20269 PCI IDE controller under 2.6.11-rc4, which made it pretty useless. I found the following patch from almost two years ago, which when applied resolved the problems:

Is there a reason I'm unaware of why this never made it into the main kernel tree? I've not noticed any ill-effects of applying the patch to 2.6.11-rc4.

Thanks,
David
