No, old kernel did that async thing.

Old kernel embedded the ata port suspend/resume code in host
suspend/resume code and host has async suspend enabled.

I split the ata port suspend/resume code out.

ata: add ata port system PM callbacks
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=5ef4108

But ata port async suspend was not enabled in above patch.
So I think this is a regression.

Thanks,
