What does that really mean if anything? There are two SATA drivers in the 2.6 kernel. One is under the IDE section, and that's the one that is listed as deprecated. The second one is under SCSI. You have to select SCSI support, even if you don't have any SCSI devices. To me, that should be the deprecated driver, but it is the one that has pretty much taken over, as it supports many more controllers. It is called Libata.
