Given that libata goes through the scsi layer at the moment, shifting from the traditional PATA drivers to the libata ones is going to result in a shift from hdfoo to sdbar. We're not really looking forward to this from the distribution point of view, though I think the same thing happened in the past when shifting from the ancient SATA drivers to the libata ones.
