Digging back through the archives, this came up once in 2007, Alan Cox did not like the idea of globally adding this call into the critical paths of libata at the time. (I've seen it done via external patches in ata_qc_issue and ata_qc_complete for example.) If that concern is no longer in place, I can redo with it within libata so it'll work for all libata driven devices similar to how it's handled for legacy IDE drivers now.
