We already support the hpt372, and I've just added support for the
hpt374 to -current.

I'm currently being sponsored to make our ATA RAID code work the
way it should, -current is already far ahead, and I've got a
commit to make later today or tomorrow that makes the last
few things regarding failuremode and reporting back to the
config on disk what happend so the controller knows on the
next boot. When this is done rebuilding of failed RAID1's
will hit the tree. When this has settled a bit a full MFC is
planned.
