I am removing the attached patch from libata-dev.git, as it does not
justify the maintenance burden at the present time. The reasons it sat
in libata-dev rather than go upstream are discussed at the top of the
patch.
If anyone feels strongly about this ioctl, take it upon yourself to
research the patch fully, address the concerns, and present an updated
solution.
That interface is so obsolete it really doesn't matter much now.
Most people seem to use the more modern "hdparm -I" instead
of this ("hdparm -i") one.
For now, "hdparm -I" works just fine using HDIO_DRIVE_CMD,
but if somebody could show me how to use ATA PASSTHRU,
then I'll port it over to that.
