pata_acpi: ACPI driver support
On a cable there may be eighty wires or perhaps forty and we learn about its type In the world of ACPI So we call the GTM And we find the the timing rate And we look through it to see If eighty wire it must be Timing lives in ACPI routines ACPI routines, ACPI routines Timing lives in ACPI routines ACPI routes ACPI routines And the drivers last you see Picking up unknown pci ids and the code begins to work Timing lives in ACPI routines ACPI routines, ACPI routines Timing lives in ACPI routines ACPI routes ACPI routines [Full speed ahead, Mr Hacker, full speed ahead] Full speed over here sir! Checking Cable, checking cable Aye aye, 80 wire, Heaven heaven] If we use ACPI (ACPI) Every box (every box) has all we need (has all we need) Cable type (cable type) and mode timing (mode timing) In our ATA (in our ATA) subroutines (subroutines, ha ha) Timing lives in ACPI routines ACPI routines, ACPI routines Timing lives in ACPI routines ACPI routes ACPI routines Timing lives in ACPI routines ACPI routines, ACPI routines Timing lives in ACPI routines ACPI routes ACPI routines Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
