Well, I think I would need more than that to rework the whole thing. There are a lot of benefits in sharing the same path between probing / error handling and suspend/resuming. ATA has a lot of quirks which have to be dealt with and it will be very fragile to scatter handling logics over multiple separate paths. We definitely can try to make the plumbing from power management easier to follow.
