NAME
       ata_acpi_push_timing - set the channel (controller) timings


SYNOPSIS
       void ata_acpi_push_timing  (struct ata_port * ap);


ARGUMENTS
       ap     target ata_port (channel)


DESCRIPTION
       For  PATA  ACPI,  this  function  executes the _STM ACPI method for the
       target channel.

       _STM only applies to ATA controllers in  PATA  (legacy)  mode,  not  to
       SATA.  In legacy mode, ap->hard_port_no is channel (controller) number.

       _STM requires Identify Drive data, which must  already  be  present  in
       ata_device->id[] (i.e., it’s not fetched here).
