* Updating libata to directly bind with ACPI / runtime power mgmt.
This is a pre-req for SATA ZPODD (CD-ROM power management).

Touches ACPI (exports++) and SCSI in minor ways. Has been in linux-next
for weeks.

The rest of [ZPODD] will probably come via SCSI tree, as it involves
a lot of updates to the 'sr' driver etc.

BTW Lin and Aaron, note that this did not include these changes:

sr: check support for device busy class events
sr: support zero power ODD
sr: make sure ODD is in resumed state in block ioctl

as in the end I wanted to put the brakes on SCSI-touching patches. These
should be able to go into James' scsi-misc tree with the other SCSI-area
ZPODD changes.

For those three 'sr' changes listed above, you may add

Acked-by: Jeff Garzik <redacted>

when moving them over.

Thanks Jeff.

Hi James,
I'll prepare these dropped patches plus some other fixes for ZPODD which
I've sent v2 recently and merge them into v3 for you to review.

They weren't exactly dropped ... I've been waiting for you to address
Alan Stern's comments, since he's our resident expert on suspend/resume.

James
