[PATCH] sata_promise: Port enumeration order - SATA 150 TX4, SATA300 TX4

[Milan Kupcevic]

From: Milan Kupcevic <milan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Fix Promise SATAII 150 TX4 (PDC40518) and Promise SATA 300 TX4 
(PDC40718-GP) wrong port enumeration order that makes it (nearly) 
impossible to deal with boot problems using two or more drives.

The current kernel driver assumes:

port 1 - scsi3
port 2 - scsi1
port 3 - scsi0
port 4 - scsi2

Having 4 hard drives connected to the controller grub recognizes the 
port 1 connected drive as "(hd0)" but kernel recognizes the port 3 
connected drive as scsi0:0:0:0 (/dev/sda). There is no clean way to make 
it boot correctly.
