Yes. that's a common idea.

I think that the naming would be ata_pccard to fit other things in the
kernel.

hehe. I call mine ata_pccard :-) I tried having full ata module, but
ran into some hairy build issues that I didn't want to take the time
to sort out with soren's rototil going on in the background. Now that
that is done, I'll have to revisit.
