Is the intention of the IOCATAREINIT->ata_reinit() from
ata-all.c to 
rediscover new disks?

The atacontrol man page seems to indicate that it should:
 reinit     Reinitialize an ATA channel.  Both devices on
the channel are
              reset and initialized to the parameters the
ATA driver has
              stored internally.  Devices that have gone bad
and no longer
              respond to the probe, or devices that have
physically been
              removed, are removed from the kernel. 
Likewise are 
devices that
              show up during a reset, probed and attached.


Looking at ata_reinit() however shows no indication of being
able to 
find or discover new disks.

So is this a mis-read on my part or something else?
