Subject: What's left in libata-dev.git?


This is a summary of items and issues that remain outstanding for

at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/libata-dev.git

Patches and tasks in mbox queue, not yet in git:

1) Axboe: kill sg_last(), libata is last remaining user

2) Bart points out bugs in "Re: [git patches] libata update"

3) Tejun: libata: implement ata_wait_after_reset()

	^^^  Tejun, what case does this solve?  Still needed?

4) Alan: [PATCH] libata: Deal with ATA8-ACS proposed Trusted/Treacherous 
Computing features

5) Need a pass through bz.kernel.org


Please speak up if there is something missing.

	Jeff
