The patch also adds a CMD640_PREFETCH_MASKS macro which can be changed to
zero to allow interrupt unmasking when cmd640 prefetch is enabled.
Defining this to zero only has effect if you also use hdparm -u1. This is
dangerous but it san be used with some motherboards. On bad motherboards
it may cause data corruption when the floppy and the hard drive used
simultaneously.
