Hotplug and libata don't play nicely together, yet.

I am working on this, and I expect others are doing
stuff too. Doing anything actually useful is fairly
intrusive to the structure and flow of the existing
code. Another problem you'd hit is the SCSI layer
trying to sync a recently departed drive :)

I don't have a timetable for my work. There are still
two things that have got pushed on the stack ahead of
hotplug. Neither of these is anywhere near as large
or complex as hotplug, thankfully.
