The key requirement is per-port control. Ideally via hdparm or another

We don't need it per port Jeff, you are being quite silly here. Right now
its permanently foo=0 for all ports and nobody has suffered anything too
horrible so being able to turn it off for all ports is clearly quite
sufficient for the neat future.
Er, huh? foo=0 means hotplug continues to work on the unused ports.
Nobody has suffered because we default to enabling all the goodies.
