Not sure, this is just to call a BIOS routine, but a check should be

ACPI spec (ver 3.0a, p289) requires IDE power on/off executes ACPI _PSx
methods. As recently most PATA drivers use libata, this patch adds _PSx
method support in libata. ACPI spec doesn't mention if SATA requires the
same _PSx method.

What is the safety factor on this patch? :)
Since we are into 2.6.24-rc, my preference would be to let this get some
testing in -mm, and push it upstream for 2.6.25. Comments?
