I think you should go back and read the history of the work that
Soren has done before you criticize him.  I am not at all surprised
that he has a large number of patches in the queue due to the amount
of work that he puts in on ATA (mostly unheralded).

There is certainly plenty of work to go around in this area, but
no doubt needs careful coordination due to the complexity of the
work involved -- it has seemed, in the past, that seemingly-trivial
changes break old, brain-damaged, ATA hardware.

Please, folks, let's try to work together on these really hard
problems, and respect that fact that coordinating lots of changes
are always going to require extra work -- but it will get FreeBSD
a lot further along towards its goals in the long run.
