There is really two parts to my patchset. One is some general libata changes
needed for any SAS HBA that wants to use libata to attach SATA devices, and
the second part is the changes to ipr to use that function.
Doug had mentioned a while back that he might look into using libata to attach
SATA devices to aic94xx adapters. Doug, are you still planning to look
at this, or is someone else working on this?
