I'm just curious about why powerpc kernel is not compiled with IDE LED

About a year ago I remember having tried to make BLINK_IDE a sysctl option.

It was very simple to replace the compilation option (#define) with a variable. The problem I had (and I didn't succeed to solve it) is how to link this variable to a sysctl option :o( Also, I asked myself about how can I avoid the following race condition: when someone modify the sysctl option, the led is on state on.

Note that I do not know the kernel internals, this would have been my first kernel hack...
