The patch is inappropriate as it won't necessarily solve the problem
on all machines (loop is CPU speed dependant).  I've been meening
to re-examine the aha probe code to see if we even need to look at
the geometry register.  A better approach may be to try an extended
command and succeed the probe only if it fails.  This requires the
ability to recovery from an invalid command in the driver and
ensuring that this works on all aha models.  Ping me later in the
week and I should have something for you to test.
