SATA use ACPI methods for PM
cover SATA use ACPI methods for PM
This is an update to the SATA suspend/resume patches to use ACPI methods (specifically _SDD and _GTF). This patch series applies to 2.6.15-rc4.
It boots but needs lots of testing & review/comments, as well as adding a call to write taskfiles on COMRESET event(s) (at least on async. loss of signal).
This is not intended to be a final patch for merging.
The patchset begins with the libata suspend/resume patch from Jens Axboe and builds on that.

This sequence of patches FIXED the problem I was having until now with my Dell Inspiron. It usually fails the suspend/resume (RAM) test with a Hitachi 80GB drive installed, but this patch series makes even that combo work just fine.
The regular Fujitsu 100GB drive works regardless,
so long as Jens' original patch is applied.
Cheers

Thanks. I'll see if I can mold it into something acceptable, although Jeff still hasn't commented on it directly....

Now that activity and discussion seems to have died down a bit, could you resend the latest versions of these patches?
