mv-ahci-pata Marvell 6141 PATA support (incomplete)
mv-ncq sata_mv NCQ support (incomplete)

Patches and tasks in mbox queue, not yet in git:
1) Axboe: kill sg_last(), libata is last remaining user
2) Bart points out bugs in "Re: [git patches] libata update"
3) Tejun: libata: implement ata_wait_after_reset()
^^^ Tejun, what case does this solve? Still needed?
4) Alan: [PATCH] libata: Deal with ATA8-ACS proposed Trusted/Treacherous Computing features

Please speak up if there is something missing.

FWIW, current contents of ALL meta-branch:
upstream
an
alpm
for-testing
new-eh
i.e. that is what akpm will get on his next pull for -mm.

3) Tejun: libata: implement
ata_wait_after_reset()^^^ Tejun, what case does this solve? Still needed?
Not needed yet. It will be necessary to support a weird device (CF bridged over SATA) but it's a nice clean up regardless (instead of quoting ATADVDR in every reset functions). Any reason not to put it in?
