Hmmm, I'm not sure about this. Ideally, wouldn't all sata users want to
have this option? In which case, it should be changed to
LEDS_TRIGGER_DISK_IO or similar. However, this seems to be the first
attempt at it:

$ git grep ledtrig_ide_activity -- drivers/ata/*.c
...nada...
$

At any rate, I'd like to see this patch extended to facilitate other
sata drivers using it. eg adjusting the naming more appropriately, and
'depends on IDE_GD_ATA || ATA' or similar. In it's current state, it
should depend on IDE_GD_ATA || SATA_MV.

thx,

Jason.
