Moreover the (much needed) work from Tejun doesn't help a tiny bit in
case of people migrating their *working* setups from IDE to libata
From what I've seen now that seems the most important case that needs
supporting, as well as the case where a working setup would migrate from
IDE with old HPA default to IDE with new HPA default.
Naive thought: wouldn't it be possible to check whether a partition
overlaps the HPA boundary and warn or even bug out in that case?
It does, you get a warning about the partition exceeding device
capacity. Easy to miss that, however.
