No. Promise's partial-source drivers sometimes contain some useful
information, like register definitions, but the only useful info
in the TX4650 driver is the PCI ID list for the T3 chip family.

The older SATA150 and SATAII150/SATA300 chips on the other hand
have full source reference drivers, and we also have documentation
for them.
