PM support isn't there at all in 6-STABLE, and I've mostly heard that there's 
no NCQ -- which is pretty essential for using PMs sensibly -- in 7-CURRENT 
yet. My own 6-STABLE box with a SiI3124 (low low end SATA controller, one 
eSATA port and one internal) and a PM works, but that's because I backported 
sos' work and added some PM support for that specific (FIS based) setup.
