Here's a resend of the patch I sent 2 weeks ago, refreshed against
Andrews kernel. This is one of many resends since the original patch was sent in January-ish. Could you please review this patch and let me know what you'd like me to change? I'm happy to change it however you want as long as the feature still functions.

Thanks,

I'm pretty happy with this, and I plan on queueing it for #upstream (2.6.27, linux-next).

Ideally a better solution would be a bit more generic (i.e. not just libata), but this is a nice and compact implementation, and generic enough to support all of libata's purposes.
