Hi!

I have a ServerWorks CSB6 IDE controller, and with kernel 2.6.18-rc6 it is 
detected as OSB4. I think this happens because the driver_data in the 
pci_device_id table is zero for every device that uses the ServerWorks 
driver.

Please take a look at commit f201f5046ddaeeccb036bdf6848549bf5cb51bb1.
This commit introduced the usage of the PCI_DEVICE macro, but this macro 
does not set class and class_mask so I think now we set .class instead of 
.driver_data. The drivers that are also affected by this commit may 
have similar problems.

Marton

Yes it looks to be the case, and PCI_DEVICE_CLASS() macros don't help as
they assign in differing orders.

The following drivers appear to be broken from this

Aec62xx.c			All	
Serverworks.c			OSB4/CSB5/CSB6/CSB6-2/HT1000


Actual breakage will affect CSB6/CSB6-2/HT1000, and all the AEC6xxx
chips in various ways.

Unfortunately it appears I missed the bug, nobody checked the diff and
nobody ever ran -mm with these chipsets so it somehow got through. I'll
look at rolling a patch but it might be Monday. Until then anyone
rolling a 2.6.18 tree should revert the PCI table changes in serverworks
and aec62xx.
