For ZPODD, there are 2 requirements:
1 The platform, it has to have the ability to power off a sata device
while at S0;
2 The ODD needs support for device attention capability.

No requirement for hard drive, as it does not need to remote wake up
itself while powered off.

Please note that there is a v7 sent yesterday, you may want to take a
look at that instead of v6.

And the runtime power off of hard drive is dropped from that patch set,
I'll submit it in another patch set(pretty small changes needed).

Thanks,
Aaron
