So lately atapi_softc disapperead (o.k. has been renamed). So what to do... is the person who made the change responsible to change the affected code (maybe changing this struct causes something more than find/replace the old name) or do you want to wait for the maintainer to fix it and kernel is broken for this time. So you need a person who really want this, have time and the knowledge to do it. You cant check it in and lets see what happens.
