So would this always be done on wake to hdc and hde? I read Pismos, and maybe
iBooks, have their drives at hde. I'm not sure if they are afflicted by this
problem.
might also need to consider ide-floppy drives, like ls-120 and zip. I don't
have one myself, so I don't know if these need it either. They dont have much
for ioctls, just eject. If they have this problem, an ioctl to
idefloppy_media_change may be needed.
I'm not concerned about it, but might genuine floppies have the hang problem
too?
I assume a bay hard drive would error/exit without a problem because they can't
change.
