I don't think it would be wise to include the patch for -stable tho. It's not a regression fix and has some possibility of introducing regressions, so....Not a regression fix? Excuse me? SATA hotplug always used to work fine, and is more or less essential to reboot-free operations.There are two separate patches. One is a fix which got pushed to Linus by Jeff early yesterday. The other changes behavior which has been like that since the beginning of EH. The former is marked properly w/ -stable. The latter shouldn't be in -stable.Peachy. Got links for each of those? I may try them with the sata_sil board that was having issues earlier.
The fix is http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/49615 and the behavior change is http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/49613 -- tejun
