Hi, All.

I prepared patch to make MFC of ata(4) driver into RELENG_7
before 7.1-RELEASE. Depending on results of the testing patch
will be commited or not (if some regressions will be detected).
So if you want or just can test it, please try and report here.

One regression of the post-PM code is that support for some
Promise controllers is broken in that probing drives causes
a hang. In my case it's a FasTrak S150 TX4 with a PDC20319
but there are also other variants affected, see f.e.:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2008-May/ 085923.html

I'm aware of the Promise problems and its on my TODO list, just havn't gotten around to it yet. When I have the current floating patch for splitting up ata-chipset.c in vendor specific files I'll have a go on that report (makes it lots easier to work with).
