Hmmm, this is what I have from the last (just released) kernel:

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_PDC202XX_OLD=y
# CONFIG_PDC202XX_BURST is not set
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_PDC202XX_NEW=y
# CONFIG_PDC202XX_FORCE is not set

I just checked and the difference is that CONFIG_PDC202XX_FORCE=y in the
latest fc3 kernel. 

I first set that to off on a Dec 29 build (it appeared as a new option
on that build): Enable controller even if disabled by BIOS
(PDC202XX_FORCE) [N/y/?] (NEW) n

Anyway, I'll obviously change this in the next build, I try to stay as
close as I can to the original fc configuration.
