To take the model I understand: SAS; the links are managed at the phy level, so the power policy should be set there and thus should probably be a property of the phy object, which doesn't even exist in the SCSI model, it only exists in the transport class. It strikes me that even for ATA, the same thing is probably true. Now, I can see that the power management models of all the transports might share some similarities (particularly at this three stage granular level); if so, it might make sense to export helpers from the mid-layer for the transport classes to use for this.
