  I'm not sure if my problem is also related to these changes in
  ata-lowlevel.c, but my ATAPI CDROM does not work with a kernel built
  today (sep 24th). The revision of that file here is 1.16. I even tried
  reverting to 1.1[012], but when I do that it doesn't even compile
  anymore (gcc spews complaints about opt_ata.h, if I'm not mistaken).

  I have a kernel working right, built off sources of sep 11th, and
  that's why I stuck with versions 1.1[012], which are the ones around
  that date. However, I understand I should also revert opt_ata.h, I
  just don't have the time for it right now. If someone has ideas on
  what could possibly fix/clarify the problem more easily, I'd love to
  try it. But recompiling kernel after kernel here is a real pain,
  because it takes over 2 hours in the process.
