  I'm staggered by this. The *only reason* for having this change is to 
get past the 1/2 socket limitation when running Windows desktop guests. 
It has no impact on any other guests, whatsoever.

  You can easily download an eval of Windows 10 to try this out with. 
You do not (and have never) required ATA support to run Windows on bhyve.

  This is project culture, which you should have seen observing MFC 
times for commits.

  And why the rush ? I'm yet to understand what the urgency for this 
work is ? Who is demanding it ?
