I belive the BK is an alias for jgarzik, the person who wrote the code for VIA
SATA support.
The number 14 would be the patch serial number, ie, the 14th patch he wrote
for libata support.
All his patches can be found at;
kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/
On another note if you intend to use the above patch one can only advise you
to update your kernel to 2.4.31, its the latest kernel with support for SATA
VIA, which the patch above concerns, in other words all jgarzik's work is
included in that kernel so no need to patch anything.

Thanks for the response.
I'm forced to used 2.4.22 because this is the latest kernel version that
openss7 supports for their sctp implementation.
I already tried 2.4.31 but I'm having problems with threaded programs.
They kept on crashing on a newly compiled 2.4.x kernel.
Anyways, I'm already using 2.6.12.5 kernel so I don't have to worry
about sctp, sata, and thread problems anymore. =)
