  What's your opinion about ITE8212F-based ATA controllers? When code that 
supports those controllers should reach RELENG_5? There are no Promise cards
available in our area, but I can buy ITE8212F ones. My primary usage will be
just plain ATA channels (I don't plan to use RAID functionality yet).
