According to the datasheet, ht6560b only supports up to PIO mode 4.

Hi,
With digging into the code...
I think the ht6560b controller supports DMA. At least it did so in 2.2
(where hdparm could still turn it on). DMA in 2.2 would improve the HD
from about 1M/s to 4M/s. So that's quite interesting.
Also the datasheet claims that there is full ANSI ATA-4a

I think the ht6560b controller supports DMA.
The data sheet doesn't. It's a PIO controller capable of PIO4 with 32bit
host to cpu transfers are best.

Hmm. But what do you then think that 2.2 did?
I mean it now does 1.15M/s and in 2.2 it would do ~4M/s with DMA on.

I think, but didn't look real good nor test yet, that pata_legacy also
needs something comparable to select_proc? Or is that implemented in
some generic manner?
It sets it in the timing routine:

this will fix crash bug when doing rmmod to the driver, this is because the
port_stop function get called later and it could access the device's registers.

hdparm for SATA/PATA has now been updated to version 8.2.
Upgrading is strongly recommended for all users.
This version fixes several bugs in earlier 7.x/8.x releases
that could cause issues when advanced features are attempted
on devices being driven by the old drivers/ide subsystem.
