Subject: Re: A note on libata passthru patch

I'm certain there are lots of vendor-specific commands
that might assume exclusive bus access, if not exclusive
host access. All of this makes a reasonable case for
having libata stop other host activity before/while
performing any passthru command.
Cheers
