    [PATCH] Suspend support for libata · 9b847548
    Jens Axboe authored
    This patch adds suspend patch to libata, and ata_piix in particular. For
    most low level drivers, they should just need to add the 4 hooks to
    work. As I can only test ata_piix, I didn't enable it for more
    though.
    
    Suspend support is the single most important feature on a notebook, and
    most new notebooks have sata drives. It's quite embarrassing that we
    _still_ do not support this. Right now, it's perfectly possible to
    suspend the drive in mid-transfer.
