Any particular reason why this is done as a separate block device driver
rather than as SCSI?

Because no new fake SCSI drivers are accepted anymore.

Where did drivers/ata come from ;)

I was told that one got in just before the moratorium on fake SCSI.

How about making it a fake ata driver if James is being fussy 8)

I don't think Christoph likes fake ATA drivers neither ;-)
