Re: [patch ide-dev 3/9] merge LBA28 and LBA48 Host Protected Area support code

I have generic question about HPA, not the patch. I have noticed with a SUSE 2.6.8 vendor kernel, the HPA behavior is not consistent. ie. With exactly the same computer/controller, but with different disk drives (models/manufacturers) the HPA behavior varies. In all my testing the HPA was always
