[git patch] libata critical fix

2007-10-11 Thread Jeff Garzik
There is a lingering corruption in sata_mv that took me several days to narrow down... the failure to mask off the lower 16 bits of the S/G length was leading to corruption, because this stomped on other important bits in that S/G entry. This should fix it (stable aka 2.6.23.1 needs this too):
