One way or another, upstream will /not/ be doing polling PMP in 2.6.24.

Just an update to let you know that I've been working on it.  sata_sil24
works okay but ahci still craps itself after resetting downstream ports.

Thanks for your patience and perseverance.

It looks like it would be too difficult to get SAS PMP working for 2.6.24 merge window open, so I think it is only fair to rescind my assertion of "polling PMP not in 2.6.24 release."

Removing the polling remains a design requirement for SAS, but the more I look at old-EH-encrusted libsas, the more work I feel it needs before its ready for PMP. Sorry.
