Poul-henning. What crack are you on? Have you looked at the patches in question? They are small and non-intrusive. We are relying on the ATA maintainer to tell us whether they are dangerous, but they are so small that we should look at fast-tracking them if possible. Even if it was broken, it's new amd non intrusive so it wouldn't break anything except itself. It's functionalityu that we've wanted for a long time but haven't had. Now it's handed to us on a plate and somehow you don't like that?

Poul, I've reviewed it and find it ok. The only reason to have the ATA reviewer look at it is because he is just that: teh ATA maintainer. It's a low risk commit. what axe are you grinding?
