💖 ata_cable_80wire(9) — Kernel API Manual, but make it cable-core 💖

okay so bestie, this is ata_cable_80wire(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the 80 wire cable type helper. no cap, we're keeping every detail; the vibe is just way cuter now ✨

🦋 NAME 🦋

ata_cable_80wire — return 80 wire cable type 🌈

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so this is a helper method for drivers which want to hardwire 80 wire cable detection. That's the whole assignment: it's giving "I know my cable, and I'm not asking twice" energy 💅
