I had applied this patch to my 2.0 kernel, through 2.0.37 with mostly success, but there is a problem at times when some disk blocks are in cache and some aren't. In this case, the system hangs since I think the request to start the drive is never sent. It would be nice to finally get this in the kernel and properly maintained...
