I think it might be better to give up ACPI support in 2.6.21 and target
2.6.22. What do you think?
I removed it from my tree already so that I can actually use libata and
do real work. The "crash every non PCI controller" feature in the current
ACPI hacks means PCMCIA and ISAPnP do not work any more with libata.
It sounds like your tree is out-of-date. Your patch to fix that went in
days ago, applied by Linus directly:

[PATCH] libata-acpi: Try and stop all the non PCI devices crashing
In its current state it should be disabled, its broken, its wrong.
Does the above change your opinion any?
I lean towards disabling it by default in 2.6.21 anyway, but am
interested in hearing an updated opinion on what's actually in the
public tree.
