Given my recent work in bug fixing, and in isolating some problems to
the platform rather than libata, the Silicon Image driver will be moving
to beta, and the CONFIG_BROKEN marker removed, as soon as 2.6.5 kernel
is out.
With the latest patches, I would say status of sata_sil is now "beta".
To answer your other question, yes, I progressive update the document
you quoted to reflect updates in the status of the various drivers.

Is the libata driver still considered as alpha ? Are you progressively updating
some documentation on the sata drivers status ?
Thanks
