I will check out the ATAPI standard just to be sure (after I get home from work), but I think you are correct -- this looks like useless noise. Neither of my ATAPI drives do the spin-down/ spin-up thing (or at least they do it really fast and quietly), so I havn't seen this myself. Assuming I don't see anything in that standard that suggests there might be a problem, I'll gladly apply your patch.
