How about you first submit all these patches for 2.6?

It doesn't make much sense to add new features to 2.4 that are not
in 2.6, especially not at the current state of 2.4 (deep code freeze)

I know. They are on the way. I was passing these patches
through (with some minor fixing) from AMD as part of another
project we are working on.

I understand.

Thanks.

This belongs in 2.6 not 2.4 but it does look fairly passable as a
starting point for 2.6 - you might want to bounce it to linux-ide@..
instead of linux-kernel

Comment syntax wants to be kernel-doc for a merge tho
