Oh yes that happened when the SATA controller is in IDE programming
mode, not AHCI.

ZPODD is only supported for SATA controllers in AHCI programming mode,
the ACPI table will not support power off the port if the controller is
in IDE mode, so the device 1 case shouldn't happen in practice :-)

Thanks,
