PM support isn't there at all in 6-STABLE, and I've mostly heard that there=
's=20
no NCQ -- which is pretty essential for using PMs sensibly -- in 7-CURRENT=
=20

eSATA port and one internal) and a PM works, but that's because I backporte=
d=20
sos' work and added some PM support for that specific (FIS based) setup.
