I think it looks way too big.
Agreed (otherwise I would have submitted the patches already).
If there are smaller patches, it might be a bit more reasonable.
It may be possible to get rid of the couple of unrelated ones (sd
printing, SCSI constants). These were required for the real patches to
be able to build, but it would probably be easy to modify the real
patches to build against kernels without those otherwise unrelated patches.
Are there reported bugs that this patchset fixes?
Yes, but they are not regressions - libata has never done this right
until now.
Here are a few:
