+	 * vt6421 has problems talking to some drives.  The following
+	 * is the fix from Joseph Chan <JosephChan@via.com.tw>.
+	 *
+	 * When host issues HOLD, device may send up to 20DW of data
+	 * before acknowledging it with HOLDA and the host should be
+	 * able to buffer them in FIFO.  Unfortunately, some WD drives
+	 * send upto 40DW before acknowledging HOLD and, in the
+	 * default configuration, this ends up overflowing vt6421's
+	 * FIFO, making the controller abort the transaction with
+	 * R_ERR.
+	 *
+	 * Rx52[2] is the internal 128DW FIFO Flow control watermark
+	 * adjusting mechanism enable bit and the default value 0
+	 * means host will issue HOLD to device when the left FIFO
+	 * size goes below 32DW.  Setting it to 1 makes the watermark
+	 * 64DW.
