This is a rather comedic email thread, with people top-posting, others
leaving others off the cc list, Robert's MUA reliably and inexplicably
mangling both In-Reply-To: and References: thus breaking threading, no
visible sign of how Jan got involved and no linux-ide cc's.

Enough time has passed for everyone to forget all about this. So Maarten,
if you still believe that this is still a kernel bug then please update us
on its status and provide a full description for linux-ide.. Please use
reply-to-all for that.

Thanks.
