Grumble!!  The following is why I wanted to merge it through libata:

This is precisely why I grumbled last time libata and scsi-misc needed 
some synchronization.  scsi-misc just isn't pushed as often as libata, 
and I'm stuck behind a slow-moving car.

I think Christoph's patch can still go into 2.6.17-rc I think.  I'll get 
that separate repository together if I don't hear from you soon.
