New subject: [PATCH] VIA: disable byte merging

17 May 2010

[updated to apply to latest svn]
All mentioned north bridges have been checked against data sheet. That's
all north bridges google found a datasheet for with "byte enable" included.
Second revision. Should now run multiple chipset enables if the first one
requests further enables to be run.
VIA byte-merging logic tested: works.
multiple chipset logic: completely untested
