His logic was thinking that it will aid debugging/testing on new buggy
devices if the options are available at boot.

I'd think of the following as candidates for that:
ATA_HORKAGE_NODMA
ATA_HORKAGE_MAX_SEC_128
ATA_HORKAGE_DIAGNOSTIC
ATA_HORKAGE_BROKEN_HPA
ATA_HORKAGE_DISABLE
ATA_HORKAGE_HPA_SIZE
ATA_HORKAGE_IVB
ATA_HORKAGE_STUCK_ERR (only set by code presently, not by blacklist)
ATA_HORKAGE_BRIDGE_OK
ATA_HORKAGE_ATAPI_MOD16_DMA
ATA_HORKAGE_NOSETXFER
ATA_HORKAGE_MAX_SEC_LBA48
