The updated wd driver was planned to be committed to -stable, but I am
not sure whether this has been done already.  I have a driver which works
with 2.2.6-RELEASE and has the necessary LBA stuff included.  This updated
driver seems to work (it does for me, and a few other people received the
patches and did not report any problems).  Send mail if you are interested.
