I'm having a problem with udma probing at startup with the ata driver.
With wd, you had the ability to disable probing via flags in the kernel
compile script on a per-device basis. It seems ata may not have this
ability. You have to disable dma AFTER probing takes place, via
loader.conf or sysctl.conf. The problem is, this probing is a very
lengthy process. It lengthens my boot time massively. Is there any way
to disable dma probing at startup for a specific drive using the ata
driver?

Thanks,
Andrew
