The standard policy, in place since you began, has been to push core stuff into #upstream, and the driver side into #pata-drivers.

Jeff, I've no problem with putting it in upstream but all this talk of
"standard policy" is crap. Or at least "standard policy" is a concept
existing only in Jeff's brain and not documented clearly externally in
this case...

The pata-drivers branch has never received any libata*.[ch] changes in its entire lifetime, and you've no doubt noticed libata*.[ch] PATA work appearing in the upstream kernel, even when pata_*.c continues to not exist in the upstream kernel. Core stuff has always been split up; maybe I just didn't say that explicitly. Its pretty self-evident by looking at public commits, though.
