Hello Jens,

Sadly I don't have the hardware. This upgrade is part of my Linux Kernel
Mentorship Program project. Like other PCI drivers which I have updated, I could
do compile-testing only. Though this patch covers 54 drivers but the actual
change is done only in drivers/ata/libata-core. Since rest of the drivers
make use of the same ata_pci_device_suspend/resume(), it was a chain reaction. I
only had to change variable binding in "struct pci_driver" variable of dependent
drivers.

Thanks
