I see.  Well, I always feel it's better to be explicit rather than relying
on expected behavior that, when it changes for some other reason, causes
random breakage, so I'll leave it with just S for now.

Hmm, time to get the source for it, then.  They really should not be
relying on hdparm in any way (nothing should, really - it's merely a
tuner for when the kernel can't get it right by default), so hopefully
loops won't be a problem.
