Subject: [t13] BSY and INTRQ at end of command

<snip>

If a SATA host controller wants to emulate PATA and it does not emulate 
this BSY/INTRQ protocol then it is (I'm sorry) a BROKEN device.

I agree with you, Hale, that if a SATA host does this while emulating
PATA, it is a non-compliant host. However, on the PATA side I have seen
multiple devices that do this. The host has to be tolerant of that
behavior and deal with it (most certainly in SW).
